About this app

We’re building a fast, ultra customizable browser that prioritizes your privacy (not our own profit). An Internet browser that adapts to you, not the other way around. Vivaldi browser comes packed with smart features including desktop-style tabs, a built-in Ad Blocker, protection against trackers, and a private translator. Browser options like themes and layout choices help you make Vivaldi your own.

Personalized Speed Dial

Browse faster by adding your favorite bookmarks as Speed Dials on the new tab page, to keep them one tap away. Sort them into folders, pick from a bunch of layout options, and make it your own. You can also switch Search Engines on the fly using Search Engine Nicknames while typing in Vivaldi’s Address Field (like ""d"" for DuckDuckGo or ""w"" for Wikipedia).

Tab Bar with Two-Level Tab Stacks

Vivaldi is the world’s first browser on Android to introduce two rows of mobile browser tabs. Long-press the New Tab button & select “New Tab Stack” to check it out! Choose between using a Tab Bar (which works great on larger screens and tablets) or a Tab Switcher to manage tabs.

Genuine Privacy and Security

Vivaldi doesn’t track your behavior. And we try to block other trackers that are trying to follow you around the internet. Keep your Internet browsing history to yourself with Private Tabs. When you use private browser tabs, searches, links, sites visited, cookies, and temporary files won't be stored.

Built-in Ad- & Tracker blocker

Popups and ads are among the most annoying things about browsing the Internet. Now you can get rid of them in a few clicks. A built-in Ad Blocker blocks privacy-invading ads and stops trackers from following you around the web - no extensions needed. P.S. Ad Blocker and pop-up blockers also make your browsing experience faster and safer.

Smart Tools 🛠

Vivaldi comes with built-in tools, so you get better app performance and spend less jumping between apps to get things done. Here's a taste:

- Get private translations of websites using Vivaldi Translate (powered by Lingvanex).
- Take Notes as you browse and sync them securely between all your devices.
- Capture screenshots of a full-page (or just the visible area) and share them quickly.
- Scan QR Codes to share links between devices.
- Use Page Actions to adjust web page content with filters.

Keep your browsing data with you

Vivaldi is also available on Windows, Mac, and Linux! Pick up where you left off by syncing data across devices. Open tabs, saved logins, Bookmarks and Notes seamlessly sync to all your devices using end-to-end encryption and can be further secured by an encryption password.

Been testing this out to compare with Firefox since it's missing a few features I want. I'm impressed with how well it handles websites when my phone Android computer is plugged in to a secondary display, it's a bit glitchy with some web apps but much better than Firefox. I also love that the ad blocker is built in. I've been done with Google Chrome for a while cuz of the trashy ads experience, but trying to figure out how alternatives compare. The UI could use some work, but it's decent.

Great feature rich browser. I particularly like the notes feature which is great for quick notes when browsing a website or copy pasting links to check out later. Also, I love that everything is synced between my devices; laptop, android phone. Another great feature is the possibility to hibernate background tabs in order to use less resources when browsing. I love the side panel where I can quickly access all the extras I might need.

Dunno what happened with one of the updates, but when I chose to Customize my start and selected a background, the app crashed... and keeps crashing. Cleared the cache, nothing. I'd really hate to have to clear the data cause I had some 20 tabs with random. Please fix this issue or at least give me a workaround that'll let me save the tabs. Update: never really recovered my tabs, had to dig around history. At least the app has gotten better, also alike to the desktop version.
