lucky first. was just looking the latest article, so didn't went to market.
I was just gonna commment on 'wanting first update of the year' in the latest article when this appeared.

@stardepp looks like there's a really close competitor , coincidentally.
No telling for me who was first.

I am very pleased that Vivaldi Android can now scan QR codes. So now I just uninstalled my QR code app.

Please upvote : 'Open all bookmark in tabs' context menu for folders.

When will it be possible to swap icons in places? And the tiles are still small, as if they were made for old Nokia phones.

Not found any qr code and speed dial thumbnails

[mossman]

What's the criteria for triggering a thumbnail instead of just a site name?

So far, I've only been able to get thumbnails for this forum and a BBC weather report... but not for another four or five pages, including BBC news.

I'm missing Translator in this browser.

@Gurmeetim Long press on the Vivaldi Snapshot App icon:

Top right under the Vivaldi icon:

Whenever I scan a QR code through the address field shortcut, it opens the page in a new tab, even when I am on speed dial

[mossman]

Anyone else notice that the identical-looking QR sharing button in the address bar only creates codes on desktop and only receives codes in mobile...?

What if I want to quickly share a page from my phone to my wife's phone?

@Pyrlandia7 yes all chromium forks removed translation function. It's sad. Only Chrome and microsoft edge support translation

@stardepp Simply tapping the address field is enough, then the QR‐icon is being made visible.

[Gurmeetim]

@stardepp where is the speed dial thumbnail .It only sort button.Not see any thumbnails.

But this does not work for me.

Congrats. First release of 2021. Now, the only feature which is holding me back is video background play. Brave does this natively and firefox with add-on.

[Gort]

Hopefully the double-tap back button to exit feature can be disabled if it's not wanted?

@Maria As someone who specifically requested this feature, I am THRILLED that Vivaldi has implemented it on the Android browser! Now, I can add the Vivaldi search widget to my phone's homescreen and have the exact same QR scan feature as I used to with Opera Touch. Not only can I say a last goodbye to Opera anything, but you have shown me that Vivaldi really listens to its users.

Thank you and Happy New Year. Vivaldi and you have tangoed your way into my heart!
