About this app

Your ultimate, no-BS browser – faster, safer, and packed with tools the others wish they had. Free VPN, ad-blocking, tracker-blocking, and total customization, all in one package. Say goodbye to basic and hello to a browser that actually does more than load pages.

THE FULL FEATURE LINEUP:
🛡️ Free VPN – Because your privacy shouldn’t come with a price tag.
⛔ Enhanced Ad Blocker – Ads? Nope. uBlock Origin-powered, so it actually works.
👀 Tracker Blocker – Stops others from selling your browsing habits.
🎨 Total Customization – Dark Mode, wallpapers, themes—make it your browser.
🌍 Sync Across Devices – Keep your tabs, bookmarks, and settings wherever you go.

🚫 BLOCK ADS. TAKE BACK CONTROL.
Tired of the internet looking like Times Square? Our ad blocker does more than slap a bandaid on the problem—it deletes ads, trackers, and all the other garbage slowing you down.

🛡️ BROWSE PRIVATELY, ANYWHERE.
Free VPN = total privacy with just one tap. No sign-ups, no weird data collection, no "7-day free trials" that suddenly charge you $9.99. It just works.

🔒 LOCK DOWN EVERY DEVICE.
Need protection beyond Opera? VPN Pro covers everything—your apps, your entire phone, even your grandma’s tablet (if you’re feeling generous). One subscription, six devices.

📉 DATA SAVINGS THAT ACTUALLY SAVE DATA.
Why load a 10MB webpage when we can slim it down for you? Opera compresses pages, so you get the speed without the data drain.

🎨 YOUR BROWSER, YOUR RULES.
Customize everything—wallpapers, icons, layouts. Dark Mode? Of course. Opera is your browser, not just another cookie-cutter app.

I have used Opera in it's many forms for both pc and mobile for years and have only now come to have an issue with the browser. For whatever reason, certain websites to not like Social Media login hyperlinks. But, other than that, with the functionality being overtly impressive and the resource consumption staying well beyond reasonable, I can say I don't have any reason to use any other browser. As Todd Howard said, "It just, works."

been using it for months and loved it. loved the VPN, adblocker, tracker blocker, loved everything. then a few days ago I started getting ads like a normal web browser would, pop ups and banners, mini videos, and full screen ads. couldn't fix it, so I sent a bug report. now I can't get a single webpage to load past 3/4. I restarted my phone, checked WiFi and 5g, and eventually ended up trying un/reinstall method. it worked for about 2 sites worth of browsing and we're back to the same problem.

I love the idea of this browser, especially in the UK which is turning more 1984 every day. But sadly it doesn't work for me. It is painfully slow to the point that it's unusable. Many pictures etc never even load. Some sites take minutes to load parts of a full page. I installed it in my phone and tablet just to be sure, the results are identical on both. Shame.
