Vivaldi browser in Volvo cars
-
I recently received a Volvo XC40 Recharge P6 which uses Android Automotive OS as its operating system. Sadly Vivaldi browser is not available in Volvo cars using AAOS which I find strange since its available in Polestar cars using AAOS and Polestar being a sister brand to Volvo Cars. Is there any reason for Vivaldi not being in Volvo cars and is there a plan to bring Vivaldi browser to Volvo cars in the future?

@robineatworld I’m pretty certain Vivaldi would enjoy having a partnership with Volvo. Either Vivaldi hasn’t contacted Volvo yet, or Volvo declined is my guess? Contact Volvo would be my suggestion.

@luetage Is it up to each individual carbrand to decide which applications should be available in each manufacturers implementation of AAOS and the Google Playstore?
-
@robineatworld No idea. Someone from the Vivaldi team would have to chime in to answer that.
-
@luetage Yeah I really wish the would.
-
@robineatworld Can you sideload Vivaldi?
-
Could anyone from Vivaldi please answer if it is up to Volvo or Vivaldi to implement it in Volvo Cars. This because if it is Volvo, I need to contact them. Thank you.

It's a collaboration to get the app working in the car's AAOS, but the car manufacturer is the one, who decides which apps they want in their cars.
That should answer @robineatworld's question as well.

@jane-n Thank you for your swift reply. Do you know if there has been any contacts with Volvo in this matter?
