How to install Brave Beta v1.86.118 on Android 10+
Takes about 2 minutes. You'll need roughly 259.6 MB of free storage.
- Grab com.brave.browser_beta_428611829.apk — hit the Download button above (259.6 MB). If your browser warns about APK files, choose Keep or Download anyway — that warning fires on every APK, not just this one.
- Trust your browser to install — on Android 8+ go to Settings → Apps → Special access → Install unknown apps, pick the app you downloaded with (Chrome, Firefox, Files, etc.), and flip Allow from this source. On older Android, toggle Unknown sources under Security.
- (Optional) Verify the file — compute the MD5 of the downloaded APK and make sure it matches c0a0ec4e38eebdc7…. Any difference means the file is corrupted or tampered — delete and re-download.
- Open the APK — tap the download notification, or find com.brave.browser_beta_428611829.apk in your Files app under Downloads, then tap it. Android's package installer will appear.
- Check the signer — the install screen will name the publisher. For this build it should read CN=Chris Lacy, OU=Digital Ashes, O=Digital Ashes, L=Brisbane, ST=Qld, C=AU. If it doesn't match, cancel — you have the wrong file.
- Review permissions & tap Install — scroll the permission list, then confirm. If Play Protect flags it, tap Install anyway (this APK was scanned as TRUSTED).
- Done — open Brave Beta — tap Open on the install screen, or find the Brave Beta icon in your app drawer (this build targets x86-64 devices).
Common install errors for Brave Beta
- "App not installed" — usually means an older or differently-signed version is already on your device. Uninstall it first, then retry. Your data may be lost unless you back it up.
