    There you are, nothing on android samsung a70 but google with chrome as my browser. Hardly dare look at some of my saved pages as i expect they'll be full of adverts. Just going to reread where someone had mentioned removing ads, but while you're reading, is thete anything such as ublock origin that i could use please?
    PS. Oddly its satisfactory. The only I notice is on pages that i save ie favoyrite webcam pages, ie via camsecure, i now ser larfe adverts wheras before, Brave would knock em out. I think id like to install a precautionary free adblocker via playstore. Any suggestions please. I have via chrome  settings, site settings, found where you toggle, but fidnt need to change anything.

    If you slide up from the bottom you will see a button on chrome near the top to toggle ad blocking on or off

    Once you have moved everything across to chrome there's nothing stopping you uninstalling Brave and reinstalling it and that way you can set brave up as you want it 

    I have both opera, brave and the Samsung browser on my phone as I found some websites work better in certain browsers for instance ordering tickets on one browser it plays up,  switch to another and it works perfectly

    Brave is a far better privacy browser than Chrome. Chrome even with ad-blocking on has a white list of those that pay them to be allowed.

    Outside of browsers, unfortunately you have to be rooted to get any decent level of ad blocking.

    Cerebus. There's only chrome on my phone, if I close all tabs. Then touch the three dots top right then scroll down to SETTINGS, then click PRIVACY & SECURITY then what? no option to toggle in there.
