Powerful. Personal. Private. It’s a web browser. But fun. It comes with a bunch of clever features built in. It’s super flexible and does not track you. Get the Vivaldi browser for desktop, mobile, and your car!

Is anyone else tired of seeing AI this and AI that everywhere? It seems like a rapid explosion of new products that are jumping on the bandwagon. Aside from the websites and apps, I got an email from Logitech yesterday about their new AI-enabled mouse and keyboard. I can't be the only one who wants less AI, can I? It's going to make me switch to Linux and adjust my tech options.

先日、Android 版の UI 改善としてボタンを削除しました。よくよく考えて決断したことだったけれど、皆さんから「ボタンを戻して!!」の声を受けて、元に戻しました。
私たちは判断を間違えるかもしれない。だからこそ常に皆さんの声を聞く耳を持ち、ちゃんと考えていきます💪

@Vivaldi Can you improve your built in adblocker in the near future so that those annoying popups that want me to use their app are no longer displayed? Brave has managed to stop these popups from appearing.

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

Hi @NewDay14!
Please make a feature request for this on https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/136/mobile-feature-requests. Then others who'd also like to see this implemented can upvote the request, which in turn helps us prioritize our tasks.

@Vivaldi is there any chance this bug will get fixed?

https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/83612/bug-ctrl-tab-does-not-cycle-tabs-in-recent-order/56?page=3

Seems like it is not only me. Trying to ditch #ArcBrowser hard. Besides the things Arc doe better but I can get around (better "workspace" handling, better pinned tabs handling, better command bar), the broken tab navigation kills me. It feels more like a random tab picker than a tab navigation.

I'm happy to assist with whatever might be needed to get that sorted.

@dweinand
We've had trouble reproducing it, but I think we've had a small breakthrough recently, so hopefully now it can get fixed.

Hello, @Vivaldi
I'm having trouble right now with a lot of tabs popped in the background, even though I'm not operating anything. I think it's probably a synchronization-related problem, since the pages I've viewed in the past are loaded. What should I do?

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

Hi @kunibiki,
Please share more information about the issue. On which platform (desktop, Android, iOS) does it happen? Also, what do you mean by "popped in the background"?

Vivaldi, to tech
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

Sure, too many choices can be overwhelming. But regardless of the number of options, context is paramount. Context makes decision-making that much easier, especially when the decision has an everyday impact.

And, with the web browser being an integral part of your everyday digital life at work or otherwise, it should be obvious that you're able to make an informed choice and pick from the best options given to you.

❌ However, this isn't the case for most of you.

Our CEO, Jón von Tetzchner @jon shared with Reuters that if you're using an iPhone, you see the list of browser choices only when you select Safari, with no additional information.

"The process is just so convoluted that it's easiest for (users) to select Safari or potentially some other known name." - Jon.

🇪🇺 This has prompted the European Commission to start a non-compliance investigation against Apple, in light of the recently enforced DMA (Digital Markets Act) to investigate whether Apple may be preventing you from truly exercising your choice of services, for example, with their design of the browser Choice Screen.

Vivaldi, to Bulgaria
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

In response to the European Union's DMA (Digital Market's Act) Apple’s current Choice Screen design is flawed as they look at it very narrowly, per platform and country.

We think priority should be given to cross-platform browsers.

The main browser choices should be visible and we aren't. Quality matters and we should be on the list for all countries.

Find out more about what we think about the current state of affairs with Apple's Browser Choice Screen.

🍕🚀 Your browser experience, just like your favorite pizza, should be fully customizable to suit your tastes. And at Vivaldi, your feedback is the secret sauce that makes it all possible! 🌟

But like any great recipe, sometimes the ingredients don't quite blend as intended.

After the release of Vivaldi 6.6 on Android, our efforts to unify menus and toolbars led to unintended consequences.

📝 Get a rundown of what happened after the release of Vivaldi 6.6 on Android, where we turned your feedback into meaningful action. 👇🏻

For now, you can add additional Search Engines on mobile by adding them on the desktop version of Vivaldi and using Sync to bring them over to mobile.

Can you point us to the Forum topic where disabling gestures is discussed? We found some that could be the ones you're thinking of, but we want to be sure.

Regarding passwords. Viewing and copying passwords that you've saved in Vivaldi is not possible, without first entering your devices lock screen PIN, password or pattern.

Does @Vivaldi not automatically insert passwords into websites from @protonprivacy #ProtonPass on iOS?

@beardedtechguy
Whenever you tap on a login field to enter the username/password, your password manager should offer a relevant login above the keyboard or you should be able to search for login credentials by tapping on the 🔑 icon on the keyboard and selecting your preferred password storage.

In another shift, I have moved to @Vivaldi as my default browser across all my devices. Windows, macOS, iPadOS, and iPhone.

No more having to keep my bookmarks, etc. in sync.

You can divide your bookmarks into folders for better structure. Then the folders and rest of your bookmarks will be synced. In most cases, you can also sort the bookmarks in a few different ways locally.

Did you know that now you can add a splash of your personality to our mobile browser for iOS? 🎨

🌈 From eye-catching gradients to soothing pastels, you can personalize your browser's UI to a color palette that speaks to your style and mood.

@Vivaldi I'm loving the 'force dark mode' feature, something no one really talks about.

I was, however, wondering if there was a way to allow specific sites to remain in light mode?

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@toran Unfortunately, it's currently not possible.
But there seem to be other people wishing for this option as well, so you can show support for the feature request by upvoting 👍 the first post on https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/95555/exception-list-for-forcing-dark-theme.

I cannot rely on having Firefox around as my only browser. I have to have everything setup in Chromium as well, because Firefox will let me down.
