@mariap why can't I access the customizable menu bar on my android tablet, but is available on my phone?

@x-15a2: Because tablets don't have menu bar on top of the main menu.

I very hope, that disable autoplay won't be reverted in the release. It's most wanted feature.

You can report it.
Thx

For me the new zoom option makes it a worse user experience than before with the old behavior.
Now I can't find a suitable default percentage for all pages. With the old font size option it was 125% or the option above (which I can't remember exactly).
Now either the font size is too small or the other web page elements are too big and everything shifts.
It's maybe good to mention that in my Android settings I changed the options for display size and text
The font size is set to the 2/4 setting and the display size to 1/4. I think the default option is 2/4 for both.

With the previous snapshot, I was experiencing display font problems on various sites, including this Vivaldi blog. Seems that Vivaldi liked the Times Roman font a lot. But, so far with this snapshot, things seem to have returned to normal.

@array: Thank you for your report. We are working on it now.

Snapshot: 5.7.2882.3
Android 13

As soon as I click the login button it goes to the speed dial page.

(I deleted my old snap shot and installed new snapshot 2882.3. I encountered this syncing problem. If I hadn't deleted the old snapshot would that issue not existed, I'm not sure).

New zoom option is great.
What would be VERY cool is making it "automatic zoom" while resizing the page with fingers (not only in menu then), just like Opera Browser's "automatic wrap text" on Android ( see the difference between Vivaldi and Opera here : https://www.reddit.com/r/vivaldibrowser/comments/pcr33a/opera_is_the_only_browser_i_have_seen_with/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share button)

This way, the text can resize and fit the screen every time an user zoom / unzoom with its fingers.
