@DanielHHH There were fixes to Chromebook compatibility in today's snapshot. Some of these might affect tablet compatibility.

Android 9i dont agree with you.
the problem still exist -
I'm also in the same case with the same tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e).
I suppose it's not too hard to fix ;p
-
@kervala I fear we go wrong when we suppose.
-
If you closed Vivaldi (either via Exit on the menu, or because an update was installed), it will be fine on next run until you scrolled a website. It is not fixed, no
-
Just tested it: Bug still exists.

I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab S (1st generation) and can confirm that problem.
Could it be that this is an issue specific to the Galaxy Tab S series, since pretty everyone here who confirms it has one of those? -

its not your fault.
the tab bar(the bar above address bar)cause this problem.
i hope the totally remove this bar.then the problem would go away .and also we have more space in our tablet screen. -
I have to say I just don't get it. I've used Vivaldi since its inception. But this Android tablet issue makes no sense. How is it that Vivaldi can't figure out how to make their browser compatible with tablets. EVERYONE else seems to have figured it out. Its beyond annoying. Its shaking my faith in the Vivaldi project. I used to believe you folks were on top of the game. Now, I'm starting to think you either don't care or you're incompetent.
What the heck are you working on that is more important than having a browser that works on Android tablets? Seriously!
I'm not convinced anyone is even listening. And don't feed me that "we're a small group". Too small to make browser that actually works? That's what you do, make browsers. I thought.
Yes, I'm a bit over the top but I feel betrayed.

You must be new around here, Vivaldi 1st aim is on PC since few years, Android version is new and not even out of Beta stage. Everything needs time and the small team can't do miracles. And nobody is stealing your money.

Assumes facts not in evidence.
NeuOpera, for instance, initially, with its 200 or so developers, had to write three different browsers - one for desktop, one for phone, and one for tablets. After many months, they were able to merge phone and tablets, by causing the installer to detect the environment and install/activate one kind of code for phones, and another for tablets. Writing for tablets is writing for an additional, and separate, kind of environment.
Vivaldi developers may skip the phase of writing a "tablet" version, but they will not be able to skip the phase of writing code that installs/displays differently in different environments - and that is not a trivial undertaking.

Tablet and phone is both just Android with different screen resolutions. A modern dev environment lets you just cycle through many abailable resolutions. No need to create a new code other than fitting layouts to certain resolutions.

@DanielHHH For Opera, at least, the UI was actually different between phones and tablets. Tablet UI more like desktop. I don't know how it is now, as I no longer use any kind of Opera for Android.

Just some comments about the replies. First I know where Vivaldi started. I was using Opera for years and years. And have used Vivaldi Desktop from the inception. Second, if Vivaldi Android FOR TABLETS is a whole different kettle of fish, why not just say that. Vivaldi for Android PHONES. About not having tons of resources to throw at it. Vivaldi brought out the beta to use. If it hasn't worked right for months, isn't it fair to say it hasn't worked for months. If you are aware that it doesn't work with some types of devices, why not be up front about that and suggest that a beta for Android Tablets can be expected mid-summer 2020. Instead, we just hope Vivaldi takes this seriously and wait to see if the next release addresses this. A very frustrating approach. Maybe its just about transparency. I love Vivaldi (use it regularly on desktop and phone) but please have a little respect for tablet users. Waiting for Vivaldi for Android Tablets!
