Your tab will keep whatever you visited until you close it. So you’d need to close the tab in order for it not to be there the next time you open it.

It sounds like you’re just exiting the app but leaving browser tabs/windows open.

Got it. Thank you. What I did to get to what I wanted is as follows.

  1. Settings - Brave Shields and Privacy - Close Tabs on exit
  2. Settings - Homepage - Toggled to “On” and set “Open this Page” to “Brave’s homepage”. You can also specify a custom home page. For a completely blank homepage, enter about:blank as the homepage address.
