      I think porting it to iOS still probably takes time, but I am happy to be proven wrong if you have source stating that brave is not using webkit on iOS.

        The porting has probably already been done, as sideloading apps, while difficult, was still possible. It’d make sense to have something waiting in the wings, so to speak. So it’s doubtful iOS development has just started.

          You are right, blink is ported, but it seems like gecko is not there yet.

          But brave still uses webkit as of now, according to wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_(web_browser)
