Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Brave Beta uses a different package name (com.brave.browser_beta), so it can be installed and run alongside the stable Brave app without conflict.
The browser can display pages that were previously cached, but core features like the firewall, VPN, and most browsing functions require an active internet connection.
It runs on devices with Android 12+ (SDK 32) and arm64‑v8a architecture. The app uses touchscreen, camera, microphone, GPS, gyroscope, accelerometer, and other standard smartphone sensors.
These permissions enable the built‑in firewall and VPN to monitor network activity, allow optional media capture for web sites, and provide location‑based services when needed.
Updates are pushed through the app store and are released frequently to let testers try new features and report any stability issues.
