Hey, I get why you'd be cautious. I actually use Wave Browser, and it's definitely not a virus. It's just another Chromium-based browser, their ad blocker and VPN are actually pretty useful. If you're worried, I'd recommend checking where you downloaded it from. Getting it directly from the official site https://wavebrowser.co is the best way to go. That's where I got mine, and I haven't had any issues at all. Hope that helps!
