The playlist comes to the iPhone with the latest version of Brave, number 1.25. Now available on the App Store, Playlist is a function that enables a player with the option to load video queue. This player allows you to play the audio of your recordings without having to turn on the screen, a perfect function for those who listen to music videos.

Once it is enabled Playlist in Brave (found within the settings) a floating button will appear on all pages where the browser detects a video that is capable of being added to the play queue. After pressing the button, the video is added to the Playlist by Brave to play as audio if the iPhone screen turns off. And the videos will run with image as long as the playback view is in the foreground.

Playlist It has a peculiar operation, we summarize it:

  • Any compatible video can be added with the ‘Add to Brave Playlist’ button. The video will be added to the play queue.
  • To listen to the list you must go to the lower menu of the three points and, then, you have to enter the ‘playlist’. While you are on that screen, the videos will be played with audio and image.

  • If you turn off the screen after accessing the playlist this list will continue to run while you play the audio.
  • If while you are in Playlist from Brave salts to the iOS desktop, the video will be played with audio and image in a floating window.
  • The list does not play if you continue using Brave, only if you go to the section of Playlist. The same happens if you switch to another application.
  • If in the ‘playlist’ settings you activate the ‘Automatic saving for offline’ all the videos you save in Playlist They will be downloaded to the iPhone so that you can listen to them when you do not have Internet. Always following the previous premises: you must play the videos from the playlist and not leave it. Yes you can turn off the screen.
  • Keep in mind that videos are downloaded with video and image even if you only listen to the audio. This can spoil your data rate.
