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.

Hello. Thanks for testing Vivaldi and for the thoughtful comparison. Glad the external display handling and built‑in ad blocker work well for you. We appreciate the UI feedback and the notes about web app glitches. Please spread the word if you like Vivaldi, and consider updating your rating to 5 stars if we’ve earned it. - Vivaldi Team

Update: There's been a bug for at least the last few montjs where sometimes Vivaldi will open a new tab in an entirely new "instance" of the browser with that single tab, instead of as an extra tab in the old instance. If you don't catch it right away you can lose the old instance of the browser, which means losing every single other tab you had open with no way to recover them. This has happened to me one too many times and I'm switching browsers. .

This is a absolutely fantastic browser if you aren't using this I don't even know what to say other than you have to try it. After I did I literally cannot go back to any other browser. However I do have one gripe. I wish it had more tracker protection features. just a ad and tracker blocker is a little underwhelming especially against the constantly evolving tracking threats of today. if that can be addressed I'd happily give 5 stars. Till then. Cheers! Phenomenal browser.
