No ads on YouTube is a game changer. The PIP mode when watching video needs some work. It doesn't work by swiping up on my Pixel 10 Pro screen. I've just started using the PIP button at the top of the browser. I wish I could use the gesture instead. Also sometimes there's an issue with the PIP frame not showing the full framing. Sometimes the top of the frame is cut off and black space is shown below the video.

Happy with the turn on option of the multiple blocking of pop-ups coming from various countries (wording as the language spoken in the country, ie. Chinese, Russian, etc....). It is so annoying to search for something benign as a recipe and constant pop-ups repeated appear while you're viewing ingredient list. I have had to literally close out the annoying pop-ups over and over again without even quickly looking as the ingredient list because pop-ups appear that rapidly.

An overall great app! functionally identical to many great engines! In fact, I have noticed with larger companies (not naming names but you can google them haha) have started pushing more and more "sponsored content" without labeling it as such. For example, with brave when you go to look for a video that may be on many platforms, it shows up that way! With other engines, it will force one type of website for pages worth of links which are full of unrelated material than what you are searching!

Best paying browser out there! Never had any issues getting paid out to Uphold every month like clockwork. The only thing I'd change is having to login every few months, but it's understandable for security reasons. And they made a huge improvement to that with automatic logins, though that only works on some devices and is more to do with how Uphold works.

Get rid of the AI features or at least allow me to turn them off. This used to be the best browser around, but it cant seem to save my settings for not using AI in web search There's multiple settings that need to be turned off, so I did that, and they just kept turning back on I don't like AI. It's annoying, I should be able to completely turn it off and have it stay off, even in incognito. But, there's clearly bugs with this, and I don't want to be part of the problem with datacenter usage
