What the Community Says
Brave Firewall + VPN tends to get mentioned as a convenient “all-in-one” option if you already like the Brave browser and want extra privacy on top. People like the idea of pairing Brave’s built-in tracker/ad blocking with a VPN for everyday browsing, especially on phones where it feels simple and integrated. It’s often talked about in the same privacy-friendly toolbox as things like Tor and other well-known VPNs.
The big watch-out is that some folks don’t fully trust Brave because it’s Chromium-based and they’re wary of anything that feels too close to the Google ecosystem, even if Brave itself aims to be privacy-focused. There are also complaints that Brave’s ad blocker can get detected on some sites, which can be annoying when pages nag you to turn it off. And if you’re the type who wants to tweak every setting, Brave’s built-in approach can feel either “nice and simple” or “why can’t I control more?” depending on your personality.
Strengths
- Super convenient if you already use Brave
- Good everyday privacy pairing with built-in blocking
- Simple, phone-friendly setup
Weaknesses
- Some people don’t trust Brave because it’s Chromium-based
- Ad blocker can get detected on some websites
- May feel limiting if you want lots of customization
