Brave is a fast, free, open-source protocol developed by Brave Software, Inc. based on the Chromium web browser.
In this guide, we’ll learn how to set up Sync.
What is Sync?
Brave Sync helps you synchronize your data across different devices (browsing history, bookmarks, passwords, and other relevant data) with ease.
1. Create Sync Chain (on desktop)
Once a Sync chain is created, all devices on the chain will be synchronized
and will share the same data.
Select Menu – > Brave Sync.
2. Click on “Select a new sync chain”
3. Choose the other device (phone or computer) you want to synchronize with.
Now it’s created!
Sync Desktop data to Mobile
1. Open Brave Browser on your mobile device and go to Settings – > Sync.
2. Select “Scan or enter your Sync code”
3. A QR code (Sync code) will appear on your screen to synchronize both devices' data. Scan with your mobile device.
4. Please wait for the devices to be connected via the Sync chain. Click “OK” or the “X” close button. You’ll be redirected to the main Brave Sync page with your devices connected.
How to Sync Your Data Directly from Your Android mobile device

4. Once you enter the Sync chain code, please wait as the devices finish the connection.
5. Select OK and your devices are now connected.
