With your permission, extensions you install can make changes to your Brave settings. Most changes enhance your browsing experience and make using the extension easier. Changes can affect settings such as your homepage, new tab page, search engine, or start page.

Tip: Before you install an extension, check which Brave settings the extension changes.
