No convenient way to reach chrome://apps in Brave?

Description of the issue:

No convenient way to open Apps in Brave. Chrome has a ‘grid’ icon top right when a new tab is opened… why not Brave?

Reported at least 4 years ago: Is there a button or menu entry to open chrome://apps/ = brave://apps/?

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Install a Chrome app
  2. Try to find it without having to enter chrome://apps or brave://apps in the address bar

Expected result:

A button. Somewhere. Or a menu entry?

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.66.118 Chromium: 125.0.6422.147 (Official Build) (64-bit)

I suppose the point in having Apps is that it generates a shortcut icon to use as a standalone thing that you can open without first opening Brave and clicking a button to click another icon to do the same thing.

You can open brave://apps and add it to bookmark.

Fair point. But what if you just want to see what apps you have installed in Brave? Or if you have 6 browsers installed and don’t know which browser an app belongs to (if it’s misbehaving, for example).

Also fair. But not self-evident… as a new user (for example), you shouldn’t have to go googling to find a URL to create a bookmark just to find your installed apps.
