What is this Broswer for

I’m trying to visit .onion addresses and they don’t seem to be working or are blocked. I work in Infosec for the government and am trying to get to the “dark markets” in order to do my job. I’ve tried several different sites and they all say “nserrorurl”. Is the dark net blocked on this browser app or iOS? Thanks for any help. I’d like to be able to work away from my desktop and so far this app isn’t doing the job I expected.

dark.fail has a list of good links.

Did the issue present with default Shields settings?
No

Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
Nope

Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):
No

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?
Haven’t tried. Wouldn’t work for me anyway.

Brave version (check About Brave):
1.17

@SpaceBar,
Thank you for reaching out.
At this time, Brave does not resolve .onion addresses. We actually have an open issue to include this functionality but I don’t have any exact dates on implementation:

Tor is not supported on iOS at the moment, sorry

The only iOS browser with tor support I know is Onion Browser, https://apps.apple.com/us/app/onion-browser/id519296448
you can check it out and see if it works for you
