Sync Setup Problem

[NicoG]

Hi

In the last days I downloaded Brave in my computer. Yesterday I downloaded it into my Iphone and I saw that I could sync each other.

When I start the process from my computer it says to “navigate to Brave Sync in the Settings panel” on my phone and than to “click the button Scan Sync Code”. There’s no such button to click.

Is there a bug or am I missing something?

I also saw that I can make the same thing using my phone info as a template for the computer, but I already customized my Brave browser on the computer and I don’t want to lose the changes.

Hope you can help me!

Yes I followed the instructions but didn’t found the answer to my question yet.
“Why there is not the “Scan Sync Code” button on IOS Sync settings?”

I also synced my devices using the Sync Code of my phone but the browser did’t update my bookmarks.
