Theme issue for private mode

Anudhyan · April 13, 2022, 3:21am

I want to use Private mode all the time but I just can’t because I cant distinguish the tabs. Hard to understand why the Brave team finds this to be so unsolvable. If you must have a hard coded default theme then at least apply a sensible contrast to the theme.

Also why cant I have a setting where I automatically open with new private window? Just like Safari does.

This is all making me very frustrated with Brave.

Windows, ios, android? Trying to duplicate your issue, but cant seem to on iphone, windows 10 laptop, or android tablet and phone. I am using dark mode on all mobile devices.

I use MacOS and maybe its just a MacOS issue. But even with the latest version 1.38.109 it is still terrible. Why is this such a problem?? Seems so basic.

Hi
@Anudhyan For Windows, to open Brave in Private mode directly:

In the desktop, right click the Brave icon and choose properties
In the target field, delete all what’s in the field then paste this; “C:\Program Files\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\Application\brave.exe” --incognito –

@Anudhyan ,

You are referring to the appearance - the black bars without much definition (boundary lines) between them, in addition to nothing distinguishing the Tabs except (thankfully) the while characters:

–

When two or more windows are oriented near each other on the Mac computer display, it can be difficult to distinguish the uppermost perimeter of each browser window.
