View Certificate Details on Mobile

Troubleshooting technical issues is much easier when both the user and support agent practice clear communication. For this reason, we have provided the template below for you to fill out with information about your issue. Please provide as much detail as possible so we can most efficiently resolve your problem.


Description of the issue:
Hey folks,

I see a red lock on https://sonsoflibertygw.com. On my laptop (with Brave) I can see the connection is secure and view the certificate. However, on my mobile device, I see a red lock, and haven’t found a way to view details of the certificate. I’m not sure if it’s expired, invalid, I’m being MITM’d, etc.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Assuming I’m not being MITM’d, go to https://sonsoflibertygw.com on Brave with an iPhone and see the lock is red.

Expected result:
I tap the lock and can inspect the details of the certificate, compare it with certificates from other hosts and browsers, etc.
Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.17 (20.05.27.21)
Mobile Device details
iPhone 11
iOS 13.5.1
Additional Information:

This is a known limitation of Safari. Please note that Brave has to use Safari on iOS. So Brave (and all other browsers) are more or less a graphical user interface.

The only way to view a website certificate in Safari (and therefor Brave) is to use a third party app like the TLS Inspector (https://apps.apple.com/de/app/tls-inspector/id1100539810).

Understood, thank you for your response!
