Close All Tabs When App Is Closed
-
@deinonychuscowboy this is such an important option and so easy to implement I do not understand why it is still missing from Vivaldi.
Yes, you can indeed choose the behavior you wish to occur after close all tabs in other browsers -- you can opt for them NOT to reopen.
I had switched to Vivaldi from Brave on both Windows and Android but this is becoming such a nuisance I'm using Brave again. -

I need this option of closing all tabs when app is closed. Opera mini has it. Why doesn't Vivaldi Mobile?
This is the only reason why I did not swith yet from Opera to Vivaldi.
Please keeup us informed when it's available! -

This isn't an effective way to show support for a feature request -- nobody is reading through all the threads and counting the number of unique users that reply saying they want it.
Per the instructions at the top of this forum category:
Upvote features you like.

Like with all updates, if/when this gets implemented, it'll be in the release notes, which are linked in the blog post announcing new releases.

To the original question, the current version of Vivaldi for Android does have a Close all tabs item on the tabs page - it is on the three dot menu.
Found it. Thanks.
Anyway I would like to have an option so that Vivaldi automatically closes all tabs on exit. The desktop version has such an option.

@creibens Hi, there is already an option to close all tabs on exit, go to V → Settings → Privacy → Clear session browsing data on exit → Closes all open tabs on exit.

I found this option and activated it. This works, but only if I exit Vivaldi explicitely via menu.
-
This option exists on Brave Android. Firefox do not have this option.
But this option will be great. I usually do not leave tabs open. So this option will be great. I upvote your request.
Yes. This can be done now by closing the app from Menu, but i prefer the option to close the tabs upon closing the app itself.
-
@creibens Yes, it only works if you exit with the command in the menu.
-
Please consider adding the option to close tabs automatically on exit ( by just closing the app by pressing the back button or clearing it from recent apps menu ). This is the only option holding me back from using Vivaldi on android. I use Vivaldi primarily on desktop.

Happy almost second birthday to this feature request, which still hasn't been implemented, and is still the most infuriating thing I deal with on my phone every day.
-
Just to remind... It's not fulfilled yet
-
@lockrol You sure? Though perhaps the setting Clear session browsing data on Exit would do too much more - not completely certain from the name. With that name it should close tabs but may also delete cookies or history.
-
@sgunhouse well that's will do... But u have to select exit for that.
But it should clear even if I close by other means, like clearing from recent list!
Also it isn't clearing site settings
-
Yeah, this is awful.
Why does this browser not close tabs when it is removed from the active apps list?
Why do I have to manually close tabs?
This make no sense at all, all other browser apps start up clean but Vivaldi has 99 tabs opened all the time even if I haven't used it for a month. This is unworkable.

@contactamy Same thing here. Current Brave user giving Vivaldi a try. To be quite honest, the only reason I can think of not to implement such a feature is that Vivaldi wants the data to be saved (which websites you have visited last). This seems quite suspicious to me, so I am aborting mission. Even on Vivaldi’s lockdown mode the app still keeps track of your open tabs. Big red flag there. No, thanks.

This makes no sense. If Vivaldi wanted to harvest your data they could do so fine if there was actually a way to have tabs killed.
The problem is annoying, I always have 100 + tabs open because of this dumb bug, but it's no use making up issues like you're doing to clarify it.

@Onweerwolf Did you ever figure this out? This started for me some weeks ago and by now it's driving me nuts. I just want the search term to stay in the search box the way it always has and the way it does for every other human.

Referring to https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/102420/close-and-clear-tabs-option-in-vivaldi-like-brave-edge-kiwi/8
I guess this one could mark as done because we have a setting for this now but it is different to the linked request.
The other request automatically close all tabs without to use the Exit entry in the menu, which is needed now.Cheers, mib
