Sometimes, if I close all Brave Browser (iOS) windows, clear cookies and cache, have Brave Shields Advanced Controls set to:
- Trackers & Ads Blocking: Aggressive
- Block Scripts: Disabled
- Block Fingerprinting: Enabled
And using:
- Private Browsing Only
. . . and have been playing some audio at some websites . . . such as YouTube . . .
And I close Brave Browser, and Power OFF (but not “hard” shut down) the iPhone . . .
Then, after iPhone Power ON, that audio will play automatically - without launching Brave Browser.
The script for the audio, apparently “lives” somewhere in the iPhone’s memory.
In order to stop that audio, I have to (one of the following three methods):
Use BB to revisit the webpage where I first encountered that audio - and there, I have to ENABLE the Block Scripts switch.
Click BB icon and then actually Quit (upward swipe method) BB.
Hard Restart the iPhone.
I am accustomed to dealing with the situation, but I thought that I should post confirmation that “an audio ghost” script-or-something can linger and seemingly play at will.
