Yo, I had this exact problem with the Words app redirecting to Brave browser last week. Super frustrating, right?
Turns out, it was a setting in Brave called “Open links in associated apps” that was causing it. I disabled it, and the issue stopped. Go to Brave settings > Privacy and security > Site settings > Additional permissions > Open links in associated apps. Toggle it off and see if that helps.
If not, maybe try using a different browser for a bit to see if it’s a Brave-specific thing.
