Ads killer
GGuabra

Best browser ever

Hey, I really love this browser so much. It works a lot better than any other browser I’ve used and it has a built in ad blocker that lets me have some peace and quiet. Now I don’t have to worry about paying for ad-free YouTube anymore because of the ad blocker!!

Can’t get rid of brave

I have deleted the app but the search engine persists in chrome. How do I remove brave completely from my phone?
