change your default search engine by opening Brave on mobile, and tapping the three-dot icon on the right of the URL bar. When you tap Settings, your first option will be to change your default search engine. Here's how to set up Brave and make contributions to websites and content creators. For desktop and mobile, Brave blocks trackers. Brave Control what Brave blocks By default, Brave blocks all ads, trackers, third-party cookies (which track you across the web via social buttons on a webpage) and third-party fingerprinters (that track you by creating a unique profile of you using your browser and computer settings). You can, however, adjust how rigid Brave approaches protection. 1. From the Brave menu, click Preferences. 2. In the Settings panel on the left, taps Shields. 3. Via the privacy options to the right, select the level of protection you want. 4. In the Settings panel again, tap Social media blocking to control whether to allow Google and Facebook login buttons, embedded Twitter tweets and LinkedIn embedded posts. 5. If you want finer control, under Additional Settings over on the left, tap Privacy and security. 6. Here, you can adjust the services the Brave browser uses, such as a predictive service to help autocomplete searches and URLs. 7. To try out the privacy-focused Brave Search, you can right-click on your URL bar and select Manage Search Engines. From the list labeled Other search engines, select Brave Search by tapping the three-dot icon on the right and clicking Make default.

In the browser preferences, you can mind your privacy settings. Brave Contribute to websites and content creators Brave's restrictive approach to ads comes at a cost: Websites don't earn money for their work. As a way to contribute to websites you visit without being tracked, Brave developed Brave Rewards, a program that lets you earn tokens by watching Brave-selected ads which then automatically contributes the revenue in the form of cryptocurrency to websites you visit. Here's how to join the rewards program. 1. Tap the three-parallel-line hamburger menu over on the right of the toolbar and tap Brave Rewards. 2. Tap Yes, I'm In. 3. On the Brave Rewards page, you can set up and adjust your participation in the revenue program: • For ads, you can adjust how many ads to view per hour. • For auto-contributions, you can control how much to contribute each month and set a minimum threshold for time spent on a page before the site is rewarded with a contribution.  4. In addition to earning tokens through your web activities, you can add your own cryptocurrency to your account to contribute to sites. Set up rewards. Brave
