Brave is known for its focus on user privacy and safety. But it doesn’t mean it isn’t user-friendly or lacks personalization options. Brave comes with a high level of customization, including the ability to change the browser's wallpaper.
Fancy switching up your wallpaper in the browser? Here, we’ll take a look at how you can change Brave’s wallpaper on both desktop and mobile.
How to Change Brave’s Wallpaper on Desktop
If you’re not a fan of Brave’s default wallpaper, you can easily change it to one of your favorite pictures. Or, if you want to be more practical, you could take a screenshot of your to-do list and use it as a reminder every time you open a new tab.
Either way, here’s how you can change Brave's wallpaper on your computer:
- Click the three-line icon in the top-right corner to open the browser’s menu and go to Settings.
- There, from the left pane, select New tab page.
- Open the drop-down menu next to New tab page shows and select Dashboard.
- Click Customize new tab page.
- Make sure you enable the toggle next to Show background images.
- To upload one of your images, click the Upload from device tile.
Alternatively, you can set one of the Brave images as your wallpaper. Click Brave backgrounds until you find one image that you like. Or, if it suits your preferences, you can set your wallpaper to a solid color or gradient.
If you want to earn cryptocurrency with Brave, set the wallpaper to show sponsored images.
How to Change Brave’s Wallpaper on Mobile
Better privacy protection and a faster browsing experience are just a couple of reasons for Brave's popularity, and why people started to use it on their phones. If Brave is now the default browser on your phone, here’s how you can change its wallpaper:
- Tap the three-dot icon from the bottom-right corner and head to Settings.
- From Display, select New tab page.
- Use the toggles to customize Brave's wallpaper.
While there aren’t that many options, you can still give the new tab a neat look by turning off Brave stats or stopping the browser from showing sponsored images.
