Brave’s built-in shields already support HTTPS only connections by default. However, if you want to strengthen that feature even more; go to Settings > Shields > Upgrade connections to HTTPS and change the default from “Standard” to “Strict”.

How about Brave instructions?

Safari doesn’t include a HTTPS-only setting but it does provide something similar.

Go to Settings > Safari > Security and turn on the Not Secure Connection Warning option. This will not force HTTPS only connections but it will issue a warning when you are attempting to access non-secure HTTP sites.
