Description

The "Add to Home Screen" feature in the Chrome browser has significantly enhanced my browsing experience by enabling full-screen mode. When using this feature in Chrome, the bottom toolbar and navigation bar are completely hidden, offering a more immersive and comfortable browsing experience.

However, in the Brave browser, this feature behaves differently. Instead of providing the same seamless full-screen experience, it merely redirects the homepage to the desired website without prioritizing user comfort during browsing.

Request:
Please consider improving the "Add to Home Screen" functionality to match the level of user experience provided by Chrome. Specifically, enabling full-screen browsing without displaying the bottom toolbar or navigation bar would make this feature much more user-friendly and enjoyable.

This enhancement would greatly improve usability for users who value a distraction-free browsing environment.

Thank you for considering this request! 🙏
