On the other hand, if you are referring to android APKs, they also won't work on your generic Linux distribution.
The reason is that, although Android uses the same Linux kernel as most of the distributions, everything else is different, including the C library. Most Linux distributions use glibc, Alpine Linux uses muslc, and Android uses bionic. For Brave to work, you will need a compatible C library on your Linux distribution.
Furthermore, simply extracting the Android APK won't work for other reasons as well - the Android version of the browser uses some of the Android-specific APIs that are not available in generic Linux distributions (i.e. for accessing the camera, microphone, webGL/webGPU acceleration, etc.).
ARM64 support for Ubuntu 22.04 would sure be nice.
If you are new to github, showing your support or expressing your support is done via 👍 on the original post (red arrows in screenshot) and hitting subscribe in the sidebar (orange arrows in screenshot). New comments send subscription alerts to many people, wasting their time if nothing new was contributed to the discussion.
Weird. Why does an ARM64 version exist for macOS while not for Linux ARM64 ?
file /Applications/Brave\ Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave\ Browser
/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
Compiling the source code is the same on an arm64 environment as x86-64 ? Other browsers (firefox, Chromium, etc.) are available on Arm Linux since over a year.
And about widewine: when this is not supported on arm64, then the macOS version won't work neither. And Brave without widewine, is that such a big deal ?
Now I can run it under Ubuntu 22.04 x64 on my Mac M1 using UTM emulation. Not ideal, but it works.
Willing to test
+1 for Pinebook Pro / Pinephone!
I think Brave for Linux arm64 can be built by cross-compiling(https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/linux/chromium_arm.md#Recipe2_Explicit-Cross-compiling) but tried building Brave on Linux ARM64 with Parallels. But this didn't work. There were several things to solve in our building pipeline, which also includes upstream's issue. Here're what I ran into:
enable_nacl=false
gn arg.
- clang seems not to work on aarch64 here I failed :(
That's weird. We've been using clang on aarch64 Linux for quite some time and even build production binaries with it that get deployed to AWS Graviton instances.
Maybe it's broken in your Linux distribution. We use our own docker image where we've built clang and the entire LLVM from source. You can give it a try and see if it helps...

Yeah, I mean, Chromium has its own clang binary and the binary didn't work on aarch64. Like you said, I guess we need clang binary built for aarch64(just like I replaced ninja built for my own), but I didn't go further.
I'm trying to compile brave on an M1 macbook and am running into that native client error
AssertionError: Unrecognized arch machine: aarch64
@sangwoo108 Where did you comment out the nacl hook? I'm just not familiar enough with the build process yet...
Are there any community builds of Brave for arm64 on Linux?
I'm fine with living without BAT rewards if it's a community build, I just really want the superior ad blocking.
We're live with the first public arm64 build on Linux at https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/tag/v1.46.56
@mihaiplesa @mherrmann mind putting up a testplan here?
@mihaiplesa @mherrmann mind putting up a testplan here?
I've gotten 1.46.56
up and running, easily enough:
We'll have a beta
build with these (uplifted?) changes, to test IPFS
and Tor
, soon?
I don't have much specific guidance to offer with regards to a test plan. All features of the browser should work. I think @mihaiplesa highlighted Tor, Wallet, Ads as the areas most likely to have breakage. And Widevine is known not to work.
@stephendonner https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/releases/tag/v1.47.23 is the latest one in which IPFS should also work with the dev updater server. Tor won't work until https://github.com/brave/tor_build_scripts/issues/110 is done. Except Widevine, the rest of the features should be working fine.
I'm trying to install this version on an Chromebook with the Linux Install (trying the manual for linux on https://brave.com/linux/#debian-ubuntu-mint-2 but get the message "Unable to locate package brave-browser-nightly" I'm most likely doing something wrong?
@leberschnitzel this is not launched in our Linux repos yet. The only way to get it is via GitHub releases.
@leberschnitzel this is not launched in our Linux repos yet. The only way to get it is via GitHub releases.
duh, I could have thought of that. Using the GitHub release worked nicely and finally I have the desktop experience on my chromebook :)
I like the fact that this seems to be WIP (Work in progress); the community is very strong it seems.
@brave/qa-team: marking as QA/No
for the 1.46.x
release, as we'll have baked-in regression tests in both the manual pass for x86
Linux, as well as individual issue verification.
We'll revisit the fuller testing in each of the 1.47.x
+ milestone(s) issues, and get a QA/Yes
issue going for when we're ready to fully turn on arm64
Linux on beta
/release
channels 👍
When trying to install this on a Debian 9 (stretch) system, I get the message:
brave-browser-nightly depends on libc6 (>= 2.29); however:
Version of libc6:arm64 on system is 2.24-11+deb9u4.
This highest version of libc6 for Debian 9 is 2.24.
The Brave System Requirements say Debian 9+ is supported.
@martinbutt please see https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/26189.
Has anyone figured out how to get this running on a Mac M1 running Ubuntu 22.04 on Parallels?
Has anyone figured out how to get this running on a Mac M1 running Ubuntu 22.04 on Parallels?
Yes. I tried it successfully on a Macbook Pro M1 running Ubuntu 22.04 in a UTM/QEMU VM (i.e. NOT Parallels).
Has anyone figured out how to get this running on a Mac M1 running Ubuntu 22.04 on Parallels?
Yes, I don't think there's anything special about running inside Parallels on a Mac M1 and it worked for me.
Just download the latest nightly that has a Linux ARM build:
/opt/brave-browser-nightly
brave-browser-nightly
into your $PATH (in my case that was /opt/local/bin
)Here's a Gnome brave-browser-nightly.desktop
file I conjured up based on the chromium snap one, although it's probably better to customize an official Brave one from a non-ARM installation:

We're out with Linux arm64 on all channels, see https://brave.com/linux
yay, thanks!
Doesn't seem to be working for me. Text is missing. Maybe it's just missing fonts or something.
Proton mail website seems better but it's still missing some text. Same for google
All of these sites are fine in Firefox.
Works fine for me on Ubuntu 22.04.1LTS (aarch64 ARM).
Might have to do with the fact that I'm running in UTM on Apple Silicon
I'm actually running in Parallels on Apple Silicon. Btw, Parallels is worth the money IMO. It's got impressive features.
Thanks, will give the trail a shot. Do you have an M1 or M2?
I have an M1 Pro Max. But any Mac will do :)

@marthinus-engelbrecht Same experience on a Pinephone64 (aarch64) running Mobian/Debian.
You can install it with the following commands( I am running ubuntu 22.04 jellyfish on UTM, macbookpro M1 "arm64")
sudo apt install apt-transport-https curl curl -s https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc | sudo apt-key --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/brave-browser-release.gpg add - echo "deb [arch=arm64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list sudo apt update sudo apt install brave-browser
ty @myusuf963 !
Since apt-key is deprecated I used the following instead of your curl line above...
wget -qO- https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/brave-browser.asc
Description
I recently bought a PineBook Pro from Pine64 and I obviously want to use Brave just like on my Intel powered Laptop that runs Gentoo Linux.
Though sadly Brave only seems to support ARM-HF powered Android devices. PineBooks run on Linux though, also they use a ARM64 processor.
As PineBooks have a ARM64 (64 bit) processor, I cant really run/use armhf (32 bit) builds as one would on a Raspi.
I tried to run armhf applications before, but after 6 hours of trying without success I gave up.
For what I know, Chromium has ARM64 support. I have Chromium running on here.
As the ARM processor in PineBooks is not ment for heavy load I will not attempt to compile Brave myself on here.
