Steps to reproduce

  1. Where are you starting? What can you see?
    I was trying to verify my browser session on a new MacBook (macOS Tahoe Version 26.2) running the Arc browser (Version 1.124.0 (71787), Chromium Engine Version 143.0.7499.41). I scanned the QR code and it asked me to compare shields between the browser (1st screenshot) and the iOS app (2nd screenshot). The shields are supposed to be identical, but they are not at all. That's what lead me to click No the first time and fail the verification. Mobile device was an iPhone XR running iOS Version 18.7.2.
