Android Browser "Windows"
-
I have noticed this odd behavior:
When I click to open an article from Feedly app on Vivaldi, it creates a new "window" of Vivaldi instead of a new tab in my current window.A couple of new items appear in my menu:
Manage Windows (2)
Move to other windowWhen I move the tab to my original window, the second window stays open with the Speed Dial page. I then have to manually close the Window.
Also found out that the number of Windows allowed is 5.
Crazy that I cannot find anything in settings to disable multiple windows.
I am using a Pixel 4a (5g).

I'm having this same issue on a galaxy s21 ultra. I cannot find any setting to disable the multiple windows. The functionality is causi g a poor user experience as I repeatedly end up having to go find what window has the tabs open I want. Then half the time it doesn't change to the window selected and instead creates a new window.
Does anyone have a way to disable this feature?

I'm having the same issue. It's Irritating.

Hi, there is no setting in Vivaldi to change this.
I don´t have a Feedly account to test this, you can report it to the bug tracker with a link to this thread.
Please post the bug number (VBA-) here.https://help.vivaldi.com/article/report-a-bug-in-vivaldi-android/
Cheers, mib

I'm having the same issue. It's not just with feedly. Every link I share to Vivaldi browser opens on a new window instead of a new tab.

Hi, I confirmed the report even I cant reproduce it in all cases.
Share with Gmail, K9-Mail, Messager, Signal open the assigned app, not a new Vivaldi window or tab.
I have the setting "Stay in browser enabled".
Tested in Vivaldi 5.5.2807.33, snapshot 5.6.2831.3.Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite
Android 12Cheers, mib

Maybe I didn't explain well the issue. I made a screen recording: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1anyRAg2n4BWxk-D5419KmNEvLPFLD_qy/view?usp=drivesdk
I'm on the same Vivaldi and OS version. Poco F3.

@Xstatic36
I still not understand, you want to share a Vivaldi tab to Vivaldi?
This open the assigned app which is Vivaldi and open a new window as expected. -
I shared a link on an email from the Gmail app. I used Gmail just as an example of sharing.
Is it suppose to open a new window on Vivaldi? Why not a new tab on the current window?
The main issue is that, even if I close all the tabs (or move them to the other window, as the thread owner explained), the window stays open with one speed dial tab.

I test this again and share a link from Gmail open a new window.
Sorry for the confusion, at least the bug report is confirmed and a dev will look into.Cheers, mib

On Gmail, if I long press a link, I get a pop-up which let's me share it.

I edited my last post, understand now. -
I have the same issue. I'm so freaking pissed!! This little game of having to close windows made me by mistake close the main window where I had 100+ tabs opened instead of the "new window". I lost everything!!
