Vivaldi browser for Android PC THE DOWNLOAD SHOULD BE DIRECT FOR YOUR WEB VOID Google play or Else.
For many reasons in large part REGARDING SPYING =, SCAM AND OTHER INTRUSION GOOGLE, IT IS NOT FREE CONTROL OF ( FCC OR DJ ).
Vivaldi should make the extra effort to download directly from a secured site.

@AMIChurchInc Traditionally, Vivaldi has always offered a direct link to the APK underneath the Google Play button, specifically for people who cannot or will not use the Google Play Store ("don't have Google Play? Get the .apk here"). For some reason, the link hasn't (yet) been added to the page for the latest release. I'm waiting for this myself

The snapshot version still offers alternative downloads. Check the snapshot blog page (e.g. https://vivaldi.com/blog/snapshots/mobile/android-3-1-1893-3/, scroll to find the different downloads options).

@hlehyaric Personally I refuse to use Mobile Snapshots, even though I do use Desktop Snapshots. The reason is, in my view, it's easy to fix a computer system if something breaks horrendously; but it's far harder to fix a smartphone. Nevertheless, I have a strong sense of privacy, and like to avoid giving Google as much of my data as possible.

specifically for people who cannot or will not use the Google Play Store
That would be me using Amazon Kindle Fire
P.S.
Thanks Vivaldi -
It would be great to have Vivaldi on F-Droid, although it borders on what is allowed in the conditions of this repository
But I think, since some apps on F-Droid are also not entirely FOSS, it should be possible. -

I'm marking this as done, as it is already possible. Visit https://vivaldi.com/download/ to get an android APK, or any of the other OS packages.
