  1. start brave on ipad pro 12.9 inch, 6th gen.
    2 go to youtube.com, tap any video.
  2. switch to fullscreen.
  3. leave app by swiping up from bottom. sound continues to play as it should.
    5 return to app. video box is no longer fullscreen and although sound is still playing, no video appears.

video can only be restored by closing tab and returning to youtube

How can this issue be reproduced?
follow steps above

Expected result:
page should stay fullscreen and video continue normally (not just sound)

Brave Version( check About Brave):
1.46.1

Additional Information:
it seems to work fine with youtube in larger “theatre” mode, but fullscreen video is black.

Edit - i cleared cookies and site data and restarted brave and its works for one video, but returning to youtube or opening a new tab reproduced the error

Hello @Jeandtilley

Thank you for reaching out and I’m sorry to hear you are going through this. Could you please try installing the Beta or Nightly version of Brave to see if the issue persist on those versions?

Be waiting for your response!

unfortunately those versions are not available for ios
