It's Friday and we have a new party trick! 🤹

By popular demand, your Vivaldi browser can now auto-adapt to any website's color palette, whipping up a dark color theme for those websites still living in the light ages.😎

And yes, this includes websites that don't offer their site in dark mode.

You can now force it to go dark by selecting the “Dark” option and enabling Force a Dark theme on all websites.

Just go to Settings > Appearance > Website Appearance and choose between light, dark, or auto.

We're excited to give you more ways to make the browser yours.

Read more about it and tell us what you think about this update.👇🏻

📧 Looking for an email in your overflowing mailbox can sometimes feel like you’re looking for a lone sock in a mountain of laundry.

And with the number of emails triggered these days when you shop online, make flight or hotel bookings, sign-up for mailing lists—it’s especially important to have more control over your emails.

Vivaldi Social OGs! 📢

We know you were glad when we increased the character limit here, but did you secretly wish for a bigger editor box for your long posts? 😏

Well, we're granting you your wish. ✨

To change the height of the editor:

1. Place the mouse cursor at the bottom right corner of the text field (just above the character limit).
2. Click and drag the mouse up or down.

Voilà!

As of this week, Europeans will be presented with an option that can help make the web a better place.
The Browser Choice Screen will be shown when you update your iOS or Android device or when you set up a brand new one.


Vivaldi’s Co-Founder and CEO Jon von Tetzchner @jon, has been pushing for regulation of Big Tech and better user rights for decades. Finally seeing the impact of speaking up and fighting back is a big win. The browser and search engine choice screens are a massive step in the direction of fair competition and granting users freedom to choose.


As the Browser Choice Screen comes into effect, we urge you to consider Vivaldi as your browser of choice. Why?


Because Vivaldi embodies the spirit of independence, innovation, and user empowerment. Unlike other browsers, Vivaldi is not beholden to Big Tech's agenda or profit-driven motives. Instead, we are driven by our commitment to providing people with a browser that adapts to them.


We are committed to your privacy and security. We believe that your online data belongs to you, not to advertisers or third-party trackers.
Reclaim control of your online experience and make a clear statement. When you see the browser choice screen, choose Vivaldi—the browser that puts you first.

You're being spied on, and the cat in this video will show you how.

We made this video along with the Icelandic Consumer Association because we believe Big Tech's thirst for surveillance-based advertising is pervasive and needs to end.

Hi everyone, where do we start?

The Home button and Panel button are back on Android!

After the release of Vivaldi 6.6 on Android we got to see first-hand how much you care about your browser. You raised your voice and shared your opinion with good reason.

We made a mistake.

You made it clear to us that the removal of the Home and Panel buttons, for those with the address bar at the bottom of your screen, was not something you wanted.

That's why, as of today, both buttons are back.

Our mission is to build a browser that adapts to you, and to do this we rely on feedback from everyone who uses our products.

So to everyone, thank you for making us better ❤️

#Android #Release #Browser #update #Vivaldi #VivaldiBrowser

Vivaldi 6.6 brought you the opportunity to personalize your Start Page with Custom Wallpapers on Android. ✨

Tap on the Vivaldi menu button, go to Settings, Start Page Wallpaper, and select one of our preloaded wallpapers, or add your own image from your photo gallery. 🤩
