Send Link to Connected Devices Using Brave on Android

Stop emailing yourself links. If you run Brave on your Android phone and on a desktop or laptop, Brave Sync lets you push a page from one device to the other with a couple of taps. This walkthrough covers pairing your PC and phone with a sync code, then using the share menu to send links back and forth.

You will know it worked when the page opens automatically on the target device. No more typing long URLs or pasting them into messages.
