Conclusion
Brave for iOS is a very nice browser. It's fast, sleek, and it will block pointless ads for you. You also get tons of options, tons of customization, and you can change the layout, including both the address bar position and the app icon, if you like. Shields work extremely well, blocking both ads and trackers. You can also dismiss cookie banners, again, highly effectively, perhaps too effectively. If you want to use the so-called modern amenities, Brave has them all. From VPN to Web3 technologies to rewards. If not, you go about doing things simply, quietly. But I still want to know what happens to Leo if you only hide the icon.
Like I've always said, for me, Firefox is my go-to browser. If there was an option to use it with an adblocker on the iPhone, that would be my choice. Since that isn't feasible, Brave seems like the best alternative. While the responsiveness is a tad behind Safari, the UI is more pleasant to my taste. And with UBO Lite, Safari also comes with superb ad-blocking capabilities, so you can use the Internet normally, sanely. The thing is, you can have both, and use them as you see fit. On its own, Brave is a pleasant surprise, and probably the best choice for the iPhone at the moment. Those are high words coming from my staunchly Firefox mouth. Well, there you go. From your favorite peasant and curmudgeon, until the next time.
