iOS version release from Testflight
-
I'm testing for now, the sync with the account went fine. And so far I haven't encountered any errors. Adblock is working fine so far.
-
@Tmc2022 @corconegr3 We are overwhelmed with the reponse and the beta is unfortunately full for now! Stay tuned for more details
-
Arghh! Took my morning walk at exactly the wrong time! When I got back and tried the link, the beta was already full. Do good work, beta testers!
-
-
Saw the email this morning and jumped on it ASAP. Post this from my phone right now!
Definitely has some rough edges in places, but seems pretty stable at the moment.
-
WoW ! Everything seems to work like a charm.
Where do we can suggest features or interface changes ? -
@monsieurzik, you can make feature requests in the Mobile Feature Requests category. Just make sure to add the "iOS" tag.
-
I saw it at Vivaldi Social before the mail, and I realize the link probably public when Vivaldi Japan event, so I quickly click the link and get the beta.
-
Moving On, can't wait for this browser to hatch on the iPhone, so I am deleting it from my Mac. They're a lot of browsers that are the same.
-
It looks very good ... very easy on the eyes here on my iOS ... one thing I noticed that this iOS beta browser is incapable of versus other iOS browsers I have on my iPhone which include Brave, Chrome, Safari, Orion, and Edge is that of javascript bookmarklets; they simply don't work in this initial beta version of Vivaldi on iOS.
-
@AltCode I got the email too. Beta version already full.
-
I got the email too and it was full almost immediately. I'm hoping they'll open up more spots.
-
Just got the email and got in the TestFlight, looking great to use it on iOS!
-
Amazing first preview release, great job Vivaldi team!
-
Finally, Vivaldi for iOS came out! I was waiting for it for a long time, but it was worth the wait.
Everything, including sync is working. Thank you and God bless you! -
According to Japanese media "Mado-no-mori", "This beta version can be used by up to 1,000 users at this time. The area is also limited to Japan. However, the number of users and areas will be expanded in the future.

https://forest.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1501049.htmlI think the reason why Japan was chosen for the beta version is that there are many iOS users in Japan. According to a 2022 survey, iOS users account for approximately about 50% of all smartphone users in Japan.

@kyu3a If I’m not mistaken, Japan is also where Vivaldi’s largest amount of users are located.
-
@AltCode Yes, it did. But according to the official blog written early last year, the U.S. has overtaken Japan, albeit slightly. So the number of users in Japan is the second largest in the world.

@kyu3a
I'm in Canada and have been using the beta since yesterday morning. So it is definitely available outside Japan.
