Sync with Android contacts / calendar
-
I'd like Android Vivaldi version or... just separate app made by Vivaldi to be registered as contacts provider / sync adapter.
Same for the calendar.
Then existence of Vivaldi Calendar will be fully justified.
And full integration with Vivaldi wolud be "WOW" -
Me too: I want to switch from google calendar/mail/contacts to vivaldi, BUT some (to me) unknown missing Vivaldi's IMAP server features don't allow me to add a vivaldi account, together with calendar, contacts, etc... on my Android device.
That is: while every new Yahoo E-MAIL account I add to my android device AUTOMATICALLY adds a new Yahoo calendar AND a new Yahoo contact list that I can synchronise on my phone, any Vivaldi IMAIL e-mail account I add, simply doesn't do it: a Vivaldi imap e-mail account seems to be, just an e-mail account, instead of a fully featured (e-mail+contacts+calendar) communication account.
I want to move from google and Yahoo, to Vivaldi, but I can't: Vivaldi imap e-mail server seems to be different from Yahoo's one (for instance) and DOESN'T LET ME SYNCHRONISE CONTACTS AND CALENDARS, together with the imap e-mail.
Why is that? Why Vivaldi imap servers don't send to the smartphone calendar and contacts, as well, together with the e-mails? Am I missing something?
How can I configure my Android device, so that Contacts AND Calendar are automatically updated with mail.vivaldi.net's calendar and contacts?

@dcanossi I think you are missing something. Vivaldi may do things differently.
Vivaldi uses caldav and carddav. Between online searches like “how to add caldav calendar to android” and the help.Vivaldi.com you should be able to figure it out.

It's true that synchronizing contacts and calendar is not very accessible to beginners.
I had to do several searches to find the best synchronization application (Davx5) and I also took a long time to understand that I could use my classic applications (calendar and contacts) and to understand that it was not necessary to have a specialized application "VivaldiContact" and "VivaldiCalendar" to synchronize. (unlike Google contact and Google Calendar)If the vivaldi APK installer could automatically install the sync adapters in the Android system it would be much easier.
