Welcome to Vivaldi's Feature Requests for Vivaldi on mobile devices

A few tips before posting:

  • Search to make sure the feature you have in mind hasn’t been requested already.
  • Upvote 👍 features you'd like to see implemented.
  • If a feature hasn’t been requested, start a new topic. Post only one feature request per topic.
  • Choose a clear and concise title for the topic, describe the feature in more detail in the body of the post and give the topic a relevant tag.
  • Duplicate and invalid requests will be closed and archived.
  • Discuss requested features under each post.
  • Check tags Android and iOS for platform-specific feature requests.
  • Check tags such as In Progress, Pipeline and Nice to have for status of features.

Full instructions on searching and requesting new features can be found on this Help page.

    @niko83 Correct me if I'm wrong, but Ecosia is by default on the list of all locations, all countries, no matter where you live. We are talking about the Android/Vivaldi browser. Of course, Ecosia is not enabled by default immediately after installation. But any user can easily assign it in settings - it is in the list.

    Given the many sync issues in the beginning of the year, the vivaldi team had to create this feature. Because when there is a problem with sync, this feature is useful.

    Also really wish to have this feature on mobile! I use workspaces (as well as profiles, would be another very useful feature!) a ton, and it's getting real annoying to not have access to them or have them work nicely on mobile. Safari has had them for a while now, and even Arc had some sort of profiles on mobile (even if the execution was a little strange.) Can we please get workspaces on mobile, @Vivaldi

    Hello @jane.n, I recently came across a discussion and wanted to suggest the possibility of integrating Kagi natively. Unfortunately, I've been unable to get it to work on my mobile devices, both iOS and iPad. As a result, my only option at the moment is to use Safari on mobile. It would be fantastic if Kagi could be added natively to Vivaldi, especially considering that both Vivaldi and Kagi share the same values for a better web. Thank you for considering my suggestion.

    I'm visually impaired & having a, "reader mode" in Vivaldi would be huge, as a screen-reader user. Reader mode gets rid of all the ads & other junk screen-readers often have trouble navigating passed. This new mode could also include an option for dark mode, which I prefer. Contrast is extremely important for people like myself, who are blind or have low vision.

    @viva2022 Think of a QR code as bitly URL (or any of the other URL-shorteners). You don't know where the bitly URL will end up (and the surrounding text is not necessarily accurate, either), and you can't know until you actually get to the site, and you also don't know that the QR code URL will go to your bank even if it starts with "mybank", the rest of the URL may be ".com.iamevilhaxor.foo/myevilhack" (translated into something completely nice and comfort sounding, of course). You would not be able to tell reliably if it contains any tracker information, frequently all such information is encoded in a way that means you have to pick it too pieces (and even that might not work), and as Tarquin mentioned earlier this week in another thread, three English words can be used to identify trillions of unique individuals without anyone being any wiser by inspecting the URL. For that matter, many (actually, most) URLs legitimately pass through many points on their way to the real site, especially if there is some payment involved (e.g. if you use the QR code on one advertisement, one company gets paid a bonus, if you use another a different company gets paid), and those URLs will NEVER go directly to a URL you will recognize as belonging to the site you think you are going to, it will belong either to the advertising agency, or a third-party site trusted by both to do accurate counting of URL usage (for reference, that is how ALL advertising URLs work, that clicked advertisement URL for Nike never go direct to NIke's web site). These URLs will be long, complex, and they will never contain the destination URL in plaintext, or even in encoded text, and the hostname will effectively be "you-have-never-heard-of-us-before-and-might-never-again.foo". IOW: inspecting the URL won't provide you any information about where you are going. Only the simplest URLs (e.g the ones to threads here in the forums) go direct to the expected web site, most (especially advertisement, QR codes, bitly URLs) play several rounds of ping-pong around the planet before they finally load a web page. And you can't tell until you arrive whether or not you have arrived where you expected to arrive. It is not a question of "criminals" doing this; it is a fact of life that today everybody (and their friend, brothers, sisters, aunt, uncles, parents, and grandparents, etc.) are doing it as part of doing business on the web. Bottom line: You can never be sure where a URL will take you.

    @sgunhouse right, you have to pay attention, where it's not needed. That's why Firefox and some other apps have an option to disable pull to refresh.

    Just came in to upvote this. Cannot believe there are not more votes on this. I was going to make a suggestion that it allow us to save the setting per device. But, this suggestion makes more sense. I have a phone and a tablet. I switched to vivaldi specifically so that I could have a sticky always on display for my tablet (in Dex Mode). There is no way to deselect just this option from the sync settings. So, it applies the desktop version to my phone also. REALLY annoying to have to deselect the desktop format from my phone constantly and do not want to give up the rest of the settings I have synced just so I can have desktop settings on just my tablet.

    @jesus2099 Not at all:) Look at the screenshot: [image: 1748364420899-img_20250527_194630.jpg] But the development of this browser is still in its early stages, we’ll see what happens next.
