New in Vivaldi 6.7.3329.17 (Apr 25, 2024)

There’s more in Vivaldi 6.7:
Create Workspaces with fewer clicks: We have made it quicker for you to create a new one. Previously, you needed to make the Workspace first, find the tabs, and move them in via the Windows panel. Now, ctrl+click a few tabs (⌘+Click on macOS) and then right-click, and you have a new Workspace.
Export Passwords and Feeds: We continue to provide our users with complete data portability because we believe that you should be able to move your data between apps and services as you wish. Now you can export your passwords, in addition to Feeds, Bookmarks, Speed Dials, Reading List, Notes, and logins, among other types of data.
Unlike other browsers, Vivaldi does not lock you in a particular environment. We let you use the web in whichever you want.
Tile apps with window split view on Mac: Window split screen view allows two sections, each displaying a different app, an addition that Mac users, especially those using big screens, will appreciate. On any platform, you can use our built-in Tab Tiling to view two or more tabs side-by-side.
Vivaldi tiles apps with window split-view on Mac:
For anyone who needs powerful productivity, portability and privacy, let them know about Vivaldi. We continue to improve the browser and with the help of your feedback, add various options so that you can browse the web on your terms.
Take a look at the changelog for more improvements and fixes in Vivaldi 6.7. Enjoy the new Vivaldi and let us know what impresses you the most.

New in Vivaldi 6.4.3160.44 (Nov 18, 2023)

New in Vivaldi 6.5.3189.3 Snapshot (Nov 15, 2023)

Today’s snapshot includes, full history sync support, synced tab matching in the address field, workspace rules and a new sessions panel. Plus 74 additional bug fixes!
Full history sync:
Previously we synced typed history. This was useful in the address field for locating a URL you had typed before, even if you did it on one of your other devices. But what about URLs you did not type? The ones you navigated to via following links for example. For these these you would need full history syncing (not just typed). Well… now you have that! Both for address field dropdown matching or if you go to the history tab.
Synced tabs in the address field:
Somewhat related to the previous feature but also distinct in its own right is that we now prioritise matching against tabs (titles and URLs) that are currently open on your other devices and additionally include them in their own address bar dropdown section (which can be enabled or disabled in settings).
Workspace Rules:
From this snapshot you have the possiblity to define rules that can be used to automatically move tabs to the correct workspace based on matching URLs. So if you go to Amazon it will be moved to your shopping workspace for example. Or perhaps you want all work related URLs to end up in your work… workspace.
Sessions Panel:
Sessions just got a lot more powerful. Now we have a new sessions panel. From here you can (more) easily rename them. But you also gain a bunch more options, such as the ability to view and edit their contents without having to restore them first. Each session is like its own complete Windows panel. You can use the tree like structure to move tabs around, create new stacks or exclude tabs from loading next time you restore. In fact you do not even have to restore the entire session. If you want, just use the search field to find one old tab and open its URL as a new tab in the current session. And to make it easier still, we now have an option to automatically backup your current session.
It is sort of like having your own time machine, allowing you to go back to any saved point in your browsing past or even …manipulate the past!

Changes to Mail View Filters:
The big change here is in a way the “View filters” work. This should hopefully help new users avoid being confused by similar looking icons with different functionality and/or enabling a View Filter by mistake. At the same time we need things to be easy for those who change these filters regularly. For now, the new default for the “Vertical Layout” is a drop down menu with textual descriptions, but if you want just individual icons you can still have them (“Settings → Mail Settings → Filter View Buttons”). For the Horizontal and Vertical Wide Layouts, we have more space and can therefore use text labels to describe each view filter without the need of a drop down, but again you can just set to “icons only” if you find that neater.

Vivaldi now uses CoreLocation for geolocation on MacOS. Categories in the address field suggestions drop-down can now be reordered. Mail and Calendar accounts supports Fastmail OAuth logins. Plus 20 other changes and fixes!
Just in time for summer holiday-travel season, geolocation services makes a comeback on MacOS! Vivaldi now uses MacOS’ built-in CoreLocation system, powered by Apple Location Services. This brings Vivaldi for MacOS on pair with Vivaldi for Windows, which uses the built-in Microsoft Location Service.
You may need to go into the System Settings app: Privacy and Security: Location Services and grant Vivaldi and Vivaldi Snapshot access to use geolocation. (See our blog post on How geolocation works and the Apple Location Services Privacy Policy.)
New in this release, we have also improved and extended how you can configure the address field suggestion drop-down box. You can now reorder and arrange things just how you like them in Settings: Address Bar: Drop-Down Menu Priority. This new interface replaces some old settings, including the “Always Prefer Bookmarks” setting.
Lastly, you can now login to Mail and Calendar with your Fastmail account using the OAuth login method. You can optionally keep using an app-specific password.
There are 20 other changes and fixes in this release, so do check-out the changelog below!
Changelog:
[New] [Address Field] [Settings] Customize drop-down category prioritization (VB-92814)
[New] [Geolocation] [MacOS] Enable native CoreLocation/Apple Location Service (VB-64414)

Vivaldi sends a clear hint to Microsoft Bing Chat:
Vivaldi is built on top of the Chromium open-source project. It’s the same core used in Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome. Websites that work in one Chromium browser should work in others.
Many websites worked perfectly in Vivaldi but were blocked when not included on the site’s allowed list of leading browsers. To combat this, back in 2019, Vivaldi was forced to change its User-Agent strings. These strings contain the web browser’s name, the name of the operating system, and other technical information.
Vivaldi began masquerading as Google Chrome for better site compatibility
Vivaldi would like to proudly announce itself as Vivaldi, but the current state of the web makes this difficult.
Fast forward to 2023: The new Client Hints standard is intended to replace the legacy User-Agent. Vivaldi is now getting reports that websites block Vivaldi based on its Client Hints. History is repeating itself.
Vivaldi developer, Yngve Pettersen explains User-Agent discrimination:
It’s not only websites that discriminate based on your name. Vivaldi now masquerades as Google Chrome for graphic card drivers, which unlocks graphic card driver optimizations made specifically for Chrome.
By pretending to be Chrome, the GPU user uses less memory and resources. It improves battery life, reduces crashes, and improves system stability.
There are people who would like to try Bing Chat but have been unable to do so as they would need to use Microsoft Edge for that. Now, we have taken additional steps to ensure that you get to use Bing Chat.
Vivaldi masquerades as Microsoft Edge when visiting Bing. This means that you can access Bing Chat using Vivaldi.
Workspaces are now improved:
In Vivaldi 6.0, we introduced Workspaces on the desktop. Wired explains it best: “[Workspaces] turn out to be yet another great option to tame your tab jungle.”
It takes our unique tab management functionality even higher. Workspaces lets you quickly switch between sets of tabs and keep your tab bar tidy. The ability to use Tab Stacks (groups) and Tab Tiling (split-screen view) within Workspaces makes working with tabs way more fun and focused.
With your encouraging feedback, we have continued to improve Workspaces. Now you have the ability to drag and drop and rearrange different Workspaces as per your preferences.
Copy & share links from Tabs, Tab Stacks in a jiffy:
At our core, we believe it’s important to consider different workflows when designing features. We recognize that people work differently, and we do our best to provide the tools that meet different workflows.
You can now select tabs and copy links to all the selected pages. You can quickly share your hotel search or travel itinerary with a friend in a simple operation.
You can also use the same functionality in Workspaces.
Right-click a Tab Stack, multiple selected tabs, or on the Workspace in the workspace menu, and then click “Copy Links”.
Get started with Vivaldi, revamped on desktop:
Discoverability and user experience are areas that we constantly strive to improve. That is why we have rethought how we greet new users and introduce them to Vivaldi. We guide new users through some of our core features to make Vivaldi work for them.

New in Vivaldi 5.7.2921.53 (Feb 19, 2023)

The first release of the year, Vivaldi 5.7 on desktop, is here. One of our unique features – the Window Panel – now has the ability to manage multiple tabs across windows. Thus, we have renamed it the Windows Panel.
At Vivaldi, we always strive to provide options to fit every use case. So we have added new options to the built-in Vivaldi Mail client that would help automatically mark your emails as read.
With these updates and finer improvements throughout the browser, Vivaldi 5.7 is ready for download on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
The Window Panel now is Windows Panel:
Vivaldi’s Window Panel is just one of our desktop browser’s many unique features. While most browsers provide a basic tab bar, Vivaldi also has a built-in panel where you can access the tabs in your window. This “tree-style view of tabs” on the side of the browser window gives you another way to manage your tabs.
Until now, this panel was limited to the active window. Now, its functionality has been expanded for all your open windows, making it a Windows Panel.
This makes it particularly useful for those of you who frequently work with multiple browser windows. You can now easily move tabs between the tab bars of different windows, or even between tab stacks (groups) on different windows.
In addition, the search box in the Windows Panel is ideal for the tab hoarders among you. Struggling to find a tab that you know you have open? Now, you can simply search and filter tabs across all of your windows and tab stacks to find exactly what you’re after, instantly.
Another reason the Windows Panel is now more powerful, thanks to the multi-window option, is that you can use it to quickly mass restore all those closed tabs from the trash!
The new Windows Panel is built into the browser and helps you manage your tabs way better.
Vivaldi Mail: Auto-mark your emails as read
Vivaldi’s built-in mail client is unique in many ways. One is the number of views for organizing your mail.
Vivaldi Mail indexes your email and automatically places mails into views. Each mail can appear in different views, providing different paths to a mail. Instead of storing a message in a particular folder, a single message can appear in any “folders” or views.
An advantage Vivaldi Mail has over other mail clients is that it offers different states for your email. Mails can be unseen, unread, and read. You can also filter mails based on whether or not they have been read.
Unseen mails are distinct from unread ones. Unseen is for those messages you have not seen before, while unread is for mail you have seen but not dealt with. Once you have finished reading a message, it can be marked as read and will disappear from the Unread view, but will remain in Received (and other views) for later access. Read mails are those you have both seen and read. And whatever the state, you can easily search for messages as needed.
In Vivaldi marking something as fully “read” is a manual process by default. We have found that this allows for more powerful management of your email workflow.
That being said, we recognize that some mail clients and webmail services automatically mark mail as read. And that many of you are used to this workflow. Since we always want Vivaldi to adapt to your different needs, we have added the option to auto-mark your mails as read.
Auto-mark your emails as read in Vivaldi Mail:
More power to Keyboard Shortcuts:
We’ve also added more capabilities to our fully customizable Keyboard Shortcuts. If you are a keyboard warrior, you can now map your own shortcut to mark emails as spam, without having to use a mouse.
Create your own shortcut to mark emails as spam in Vivaldi Mail
You help Vivaldi improve
As we continue our work on bigger, more innovative browser features that take a considerable amount of time to develop, we also keep sight of other functionality you would like us to implement or improve. And we count on your feedback as we continually fine-tune the browser.
Take a look at the changelog for the noteworthy fixes. Then, give Vivaldi 5.7 a spin. We look forward to your feedback.

Vivaldi 5.5 brings in a Tasks Panel in the sidebar, easier account set-ups for the built-in Vivaldi Mail and Calendar, and Address Field improvements that enhance speed. Now available on your desktop and notebooks.
Organize your days better and work or play faster. This is the new version of Vivaldi.
Vivaldi 5.5 comes with a handful of improvements across the board, including a new Tasks Panel in the sidebar of the browser, which will help you to keep track of your tasks and schedules more efficiently.
We have been working on improving the overall speed of the browser. So, you’ll find a significant speed boost, especially when working with the Address Field. The new version also adds support to the Snap layouts available in Windows 11.
In this version, you’ll find the handy, new “Tasks” panel in the sidebar. This lets you create and track your To-Do list without leaving the browser. How you arrange it is up to you. Add as many or as few details as you like, with the minimum being a simple title. You can also add the following:
Due date
Set repetitions
Location
Description (including any relevant URL)
Reminders
As you finish each task, you can just tick them off as complete, and the task will disappear from the default view. Although, you have the option to display your completed tasks, as well.
If you are new to Vivaldi and want to activate the Tasks Panel by default, choose the “Fully Loaded” option during the browser onboarding. Already using Vivaldi and want to activate the Tasks Panel? Simply enable Mail, Calendar, and Feed Reader in the Vivaldi Settings.
View your Tasks in the built-in Vivaldi Calendar:
The new Tasks Panel allows you to view your tasks directly in your calendar. Tasks with due dates will appear in the main calendar view in the appropriate location. For open-ended tasks, without a set deadline, you can find them in the Agenda view.
Vivaldi Calendar offers different layouts and views with unique functionality. More about it here.
Discover enhanced speed with the Address Field improvements:
The speed of your browser matters. And we have been working on a lot of under-the-hood changes. As part of this ongoing work, parts of the Address Field logic have been rewritten to improve speed.
If you are a fast typer and have encountered issues previously, this version is worth checking out. You may like it a lot better!
Vivaldi 5.5 with Snap support on Windows 11:
With the added support of Snap, you can automatically resize one or more windows to fill the screen upon dragging. You can choose from six different types of layouts to adjust up to 4 windows on your screen at a time. These layouts let you arrange apps on your screen in different ways. You can also choose which slot the current app should take in a layout.
Vivaldi Mail, Calendar, Feed Reader – Version 1.2:
Vivaldi Mail, Calendar, and Feed Reader are being continually improved. With more and more of your feedback coming in, it is much easier for us to further improve Vivaldi Mail’s functionality so that you can handle your emails better than ever.
Onboarding improvements for Mail and Calendar:
We aim to make browsing fun, flexible and easy, even while setting up accounts for Mail and Calendar. That is why we have improved the workflow for setting up accounts.
Before, some popular services (such as Fastmail) may have required detailed information to set up Mail and Calendar (CalDAV) accounts. Now in more cases, server details are automatically configured for you.
You just have to enter your login credentials, and Vivaldi Mail will do the rest. So if you found configuring an account overwhelming before, this is the time to try again and get all the benefits of fast mail clients right in your desktop browser.
Tip: Add multiple accounts to enjoy easy access to all your mail in a single inbox.
You can choose to use Vivaldi Mail with your existing mail and calendar services, set up an account on vivaldi.net, or even add a trusted third-party service. And you can use all these options individually or even together.

New in Vivaldi 5.4.2753.28 (Aug 11, 2022)

Jam-packed with improvements across the board, Vivaldi is now faster and better, including our recently launched Vivaldi Mail, Calendar, and Feed Reader. Ever since we launched this trio, we’ve focused on polishing and fine-tuning it.
The Web Panels in the browser’s slide-out sidebar gets the ability to turn off the sound, just like the way you can mute tabs, giving more control over which sound source you’d like to listen to.
Rocker Gestures, a part of the Mouse Gestures capabilities, help navigate back and forward with your mouse buttons (click right + left = back). Now, you can assign any command you want to both gestures making them customizable.
Sharing of text is quick with the added support to highlight text and generate a link to that highlight. An option, “Always use secure connections”, has been included for secure browsing.
Web Panels, keep em’ muted, and carry on!:
With Web Panels, accessing sites that you love and use the most is easy. In other words, these sticky non-tabs in the browser’s sidebar help create a split screen view.
A panel may have sound, just like any other tab. And at times, audio starts blasting from a site or auto-playing some video.
Not anymore.
Now, we’ve added the capability to mute the Web Panels, You can select which sound source you want to listen to. This works like a charm for social media sites or sites where articles have sound when you don’t expect it.
Customizable Mouse Gestures, Rocker Gestures? Take your pick and browse quicker:
Unlike most major browsers, Mouse Gestures in Vivaldi can perform any action you like. You can even MYOMG! (make your own mouse gestures).
Rocker Gestures are part of the Mouse Gestures capabilities in Vivaldi. So far, you have not been able to select what the Rocker Gestures do. Now you do.
Until now, the actions performed were hard-coded to going back and forward in history. But now you can assign any command to both gestures. Super customizable! And, often requested by our users.
Mapped directly to the two buttons of your mouse, Rocker Gestures work by rocking your fingers between your left and right mouse buttons. Simply click and hold one button, click the other button, release the first button and let go. You can rock across the mouse from right-to-left or left-to-right; each direction you rock gives you a different result.
Simply go to Settings → Mouse → Allow Rocker Gestures and select your favorite action
There’s always room for more:
Copy link to highlight: This allows sharing a specific part of a web page quickly.
For example, highlight the part of the Wikipedia page you want to point people to. Right-click and choose “Copy link to highlight” and send that URL to anyone using a Chromium-based browser. When the page loads, it’ll directly go to that part of the text instead of to the top of the Wikipedia article.
Always use secure connections: This option automatically upgrades all navigation to HTTPS and displays alerts before loading websites that don’t support it. The HTTPS upgrades will be automatic to allow you to browse the Internet without interruptions over a secure connection wherever possible.
Enable this option? Go to Settings → Address Bar → Security Features

New in Vivaldi 4.3.2439.39 (Oct 7, 2021)

Now equipped with the much-requested PWA support, the new version is packed with improvements and new, privacy-friendly additions to Vivaldi Mail and Calendar (beta). Download Vivaldi 4.3 on desktop and notebooks.
Our new version — Vivaldi 4.3 — ticks the checkboxes of privacy and useful features that will help you make informed decisions and get work done faster.
The refreshed Capture feature lets you resize your screenshot images, while a visually enhanced Download Panel helps you track the speed of your downloads upfront.
The improved Sync functionality will help you access your data across computers and Android devices by using your Vivaldi account — securely and more efficiently than before.
Because your privacy matters to us, the controversial Idle Detection API — another privacy-invasive feature from Google — is now disabled by default. We’ve also added privacy-friendly reasons for you to use Vivaldi Mail and Calendar (Beta).
Our built-in Vivaldi Translate, powered by Lingvanex, now has 68 new languages, taking the total number of languages to 108, allowing millions to access the web in their preferred language. Additionally, we’ve added the much-requested support for Progressive Web Apps (PWA).
Packed with improvements and new additions across the board, you can now download Vivaldi 4.3 on Windows, Linux, macOS.
Our Android update also launches today, including a new Tab Stack Toolbar, added language support to Translate, and a revamped Sync UI.
Hello, new, improved Capture:
Instead of sending a URL to share something interesting on a page or having to go through a long process of taking, saving, editing, and only then sending a screenshot, we gave you the built-in Capture feature – and multiple ways of working with it.
Over time, this functionality has become very popular, whether you are trying to nail a customer report or screenshot a funny meme. With Capture, you can snap a selected area of the screen in a jiffy. You can also take a screenshot of the entire page even outside of the viewable area, unique to Vivaldi.
Now we’ve improved it so that you have a more efficient tool to communicate. Capture has an oh-so-cool revamped look with new icons to explain better how everything works. We’ve added the frequently requested resize option, too, so you can get perfect screenshots the first time, every time.
Capture is easily accessed from the Status Bar via the camera icon and can also be activated using Keyboard Shortcuts, Quick Commands, and Mouse Gestures.
Go on, Sync it up with an improved UI:
Your browsing data is our priority, we want to keep it safe, and our end-to-end encrypted Sync helps us do that.
New to Sync? We believe that everything that you store in your browser belongs to you. Access Sync with these instructions.
With Vivaldi Sync, you can seamlessly and securely synchronize your content and settings between multiple computers and Android devices.
Building on this powerful functionality, we’ve made it easier for you to set it up. Now more intuitive, the revamped Sync is polished with icons and colors that draw your attention to key features and options and improves account setup and recovery.
The Download Panel. It all looks SO good:
We have updated Vivaldi’s Download Panel to show more than a file’s download details. Now it boasts an informative graph showing your download speed over time, along with new buttons that make it easier to restart downloads or find downloaded files on your system.
In addition, key statistics are bolded, so you can monitor your downloads at a glance.
The Idle API. No longer a privacy bother:
Google recently introduced the Idle Detection API that can be used by sites to determine if a user has not interacted with the device or specific hardware, such as the keyboard or the mouse, or through certain system events.
Since this API can be abused for behavioral tracking, we think it is unfair for users to be expected to understand the privacy implications of allowing a website to use it. Therefore, this setting has been disabled by default on both desktop and Android. Unlike Chrome, Vivaldi does not let the website even ask; their requests are denied by default. However, you can override this default in the settings if desired.
108 languages on Vivaldi Translate:
We launched Vivaldi Translate, powered by Lingvanex, to give you a better alternative for quickly translating websites without the need for third-party extensions that spy on you.
And within a few months of the launch of Vivaldi Translate, we are delivering a solid upgrade to its language set, taking the total number to 108.
With an addition of 68 new languages, more people worldwide can access the web in their languages, read translated web pages and selected texts — safely and securely. Lingvanex’s translation engine is hosted on Vivaldi’s servers in Iceland. No third-party servers are involved.
Fine-tuning Vivaldi Mail, Calendar, and Feed Reader (Beta):
We continue to work hard on improving Vivaldi Mail, Calendar, and Feed Reader, because we believe you deserve a better alternative to Big Tech’s offerings.
Cool and more private!: The Mail and Calendar OAuth login has been changed to be specific to Mail and Calendar and is no longer shared with the main browser. So, when you choose to use the built-in Vivaldi mail client to access Gmail, you are no longer logged into all Google services, such as YouTube. This means you can use a service like Gmail, but it makes it harder for Google to track you across the internet.
Another no-track tip: Follow your favorite YouTube channels, without logging into Google, with our built-in Feed Reader to subscribe to channels and view videos directly. Go ahead, try it now by visiting Vivaldi’s YouTube channel and adding it as a feed.
Drag and Drop fun: You can now add attachments by dragging them into the Vivaldi Mail window.
Get your PWA on:
Vivaldi now has support for PWAs (Progressive Web Apps). These apps allow you to save selected pages as independent “applications” that can be launched with their desktop shortcut and run in their own window.
On pages that support running as a PWA, there is a new “Install [website]” option on the right-click (context) tab menu. To uninstall, use the “⋮” menu in the PWA window to access the option (or you can uninstall PWAs via vivaldi://apps.)
For sites that do not support being a full PWA, the “Create shortcut” option in the right-click tab menu can work similarly to PWAs. Just remember to tick ‘Open as a Window”.

New in Vivaldi 4.1.2369.18 (Aug 10, 2021)

Accordion Tabs, which allow you to expand and collapse a tab stack with a click, add a new dimension to our comprehensive Tab Management.
Without a doubt, one area where Vivaldi has you covered is tab management. We know how easy it is to get lost in your tabs while trying to get things done, so were always on the lookout for modern, built-in features to help you view, manage, and navigate between tabs easily.
Our latest addition has arrived with Vivaldi 4.1: Accordion Tabs , part of our Tab Stack family.
Tab Stacks featuring new Accordion Tabs:
Vivaldi s OG tab stack view, Compact, takes up no more space than a single tab. This keeps the browser window tidy and is an efficient, streamlined way to quickly access a large number of tabs.
While Compact Tab Stacks are still a great choice for those of you who wish to maximize screen space, Vivaldi s other two tab stack varieties provide you more ways to avoid tab overload.
Our brand-new Accordion Tabs allow you to expand and collapse a tab stack horizontally with a click. Typically, you would use Accordion Tabs to toggle between showing and hiding the content associated with them. This works great for revealing or hiding information in a limited amount of space.
Normally, Inactive accordions are compressed when you view other tabs. If you click an accordion, it expands to the right, instead of expanding down into Two-level stacks. When you click away from the accordion group, it will close again. If you want the accordion to stay expanded, double-click it when opening. Then, to close, use the arrow to close the accordion manually or double-click a tab in it to make it auto-close.
You can enable the Accordion Tabs feature in Settings Tabs. If you prefer your accordions to stay open, you can use the arrow. For full control, you can turn off Auto-Expand in the settings.
Tile tabs:
The ability to tile tabs or create a split-screen view of several websites is one of the most loved features of the Vivaldi browser. By tiling your tabs, you wont have to switch tabs every few seconds saving you time and keeping you up to date.
This feature can be useful if, for instance, you need to keep all your reference material for a research article open, while you write. It also comes in handy if you are keeping track of multiple sporting events.
You can tile any number of tabs. Just select the tabs you want to view and choose Tile Tabs from the context menu. You can select a tile layout via the Status Bar at the bottom-right of the browser window. You can also resize the tiles, so each one shows what you need.
View and manage tabs in Window Panel:
If you prefer a tree-style view of your open tabs, just open the Window Panel. Click on the window icon in the Panel, and you will have a tree-style view of all your open tabs on one side of your browser window.
From the Window Panel, you can drag tabs to change the order, create tab stacks or even tile tab stacks to view them side by side. Just right-click the Tab Stack and select Tile from the drop-down menu.
Save sessions:
If you always end up with a zillion tabs open no matter what you do, try saving your tabs as a session.
Research any topic, with as many tabs as you need; then save a selection of opened tabs (or all of them) as a session to revisit later. For example, you can save a session with your research on travel destinations , now places are opening up again.
To create a session, use Ctrl or Shift to make a selection, then right-click on one of the selected tabs to open the context menu, and select Save Selected Tabs as Session.
You can also start typing Save Selected Tabs as Session in Quick Commands.
To open a saved session, just click on File > Open Saved Session or start typing Open Saved Sessions in Quick Commands.
Place tabs in Web Panels:
Vivaldi offers Web Panels in a slide-out sidebar, giving you extra space for your favorite websites and tools. By default, it contains Bookmarks, Downloads, Notes, History, and Window Panel.
But the real fun comes from adding custom Panels. And you can add any website!
Maybe you are using a mortgage calculator, or a stock photostream, or a messenger app add them as Web Panels, to unclutter the Tab Bar and keep them at hand.
To add any page, right-click anywhere on the page and choose Add Page to Web Panel from the context menu. Or, you can click the + icon in the sidebar and enter the web address.
The Panel uses mobile website view by default. But some sites work better in their desktop version. You can quickly toggle between desktop and mobile versions by using the context menu.
Jump to the previous tab by clicking the current tabL
You can save a lot of time by jumping to the previously opened tab with one click.
To enable this option go to Settings > Tabs > Tab Features > Tab Cycling > Minimize Active Tab.
Once checked, clicking on the active tab will take you to the previously opened tab.
Navigate quickly, your way:
When it comes to tab switching, you arent limited to clicking a tab:
Quick Commands:
Quick Commands are absolutely essential for many of our users.
Open Quick Commands using F2 on Windows and Linux, and E on a Mac.
This lists all the open tabs in the current window. If you have a large number of tabs, you will want to filter down the list. Start typing the page title or the domain, and the list gets shorter. Select the tab you want to switch to.
Keyboard shortcuts:
Keyboard shortcuts are pre-set in Vivaldi for tab-related commands, for instance, to move and select individual tabs. Youll find these under Settings > Keyboard > Tab.
In addition, you can set any amount of custom keyboard shortcuts.
To add or edit shortcuts, go to Settings > Keyboard. To delete a keyboard shortcut, hover the mouse cursor over the shortcut and click the Clear Shortcut button to the right of the input field. To edit a shortcut, place the cursor in the input field and enter the preferred key sequence.
To reset the default keyboard shortcut, hover over the shortcut and click on the reload button to restore the default shortcut.
If you forget a shortcut, go to the Cheat Sheet in Help > Keyboard Cheat Sheet or find it with Quick Commands.
Mouse Gestures:
Mouse Gestures let you speed up navigation and perform useful actions with quick movements of the mouse. You can edit existing gestures and add your own to match your browsing style.
To enable gestures go to Settings > Mouse and tick the Allow Gestures box.
To view the default gestures, go to Settings > Mouse > Gesture Mapping.
To perform your own gesture, click and hold the right mouse button (or press and hold the ALT key). Move the pointer to perform an action. You can also perform gestures using other input devices, such as trackpads or touchpads.
Tab Cycling:
Tab Cycling is useful if you keep a lot of tabs open and you want to speed up navigating between them. Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Tab to cycle through your open tabs.
To enable Tab Cycling, go to Settings > Tabs > Tab Features > Tab Cycling. Here, you can choose between Cycle in recently used order and Cycle in tab order.
You can also choose how to display your tabs in the tab cycler. They can appear as thumbnails (the horizontal cycler) or as a list of titles (the vertical cycler).
View tab thumbnails:
Another way to stay on top of your tabs is to use tab thumbnails.
To see tab thumbnails for each tab in your Tabs Bar, enable the Tab Thumbnails option under Tab Display.
To show or hide the thumbnails, double-click on the line between the Tab and Address Bar or drag down or up from the same line.
Quickly recover tabs:
Close a tab or even a window accidentally As your life flashes in front of your eyes, dont worry in Vivaldi, you can recover accidentally closed tabs and windows quickly and easily. Just click the trash icon at the very end of your Tab Bar to see the last 100 closed tabs and select the site you need. This feature can be a lifesaver.
Mute tab audio:
Imagine you are browsing the web at home, at work, or in a public space and trying to be quiet. But suddenly loud audio starts blasting from an open tab, auto-playing some video.
In Vivaldi, its easy to find the culprit. Just look for the speaker icon which shows up when a tab is playing audio, and click it to mute the tab
To check out the other sound controls we've built into Vivaldi, go to the audio settings in Settings > Tabs > Tab Features > Tab Muting.
Manage tab notifications:
Tab notifications let you know which of your tabs have new content waiting for you. Notifications will display on both pinned and regular tabs. An overlay icon on the tab will notify you of new emails or messages coming through social media websites.
To enable Detect Page Title Notifications, go to Settings > Tabs > Tab Display.
Hibernate tabs:
Having hundreds of tabs open can be a drag on any machine. Save resources with Tab Hibernation.
This puts a tab (or a group of tabs) to sleep until you need it (them). Right-click on the active tab and select the option Hibernate Background Tabs. Whenever a tab gains focus, it will be loaded.

New in Vivaldi 3.8.2259.37 (Apr 29, 2021)

There are browsers, and then there is Vivaldi. We give you plenty of features while protecting your privacy.
In the latest version, there’s a new option to block cookie dialogs and banners that will help save time and unnecessary clicks, so that you can get on with what you came for – browsing.
We continue to tackle privacy issues plaguing the internet such as data collection, user tracking, and profiling including FLoC, Google’s latest privacy-invasive technology.
Vivaldi’s signature Panels are now more customizable with a design overhaul and fresh options that will spice up the look of the browser and how you interact with it. You’ll also find new quicker bookmarking options.
The Cookie Crumbler: Vivaldi’s cookie warning blocker:
Do cookie dialogs drive you insane? In this new version, we reduce annoying cookie dialogs and banners by miles.
For many of you, incessant cookie dialogs and banners are the new scourge of smooth browsing. While the purpose of the EU’s GDPR to protect users from tracking websites is noble, it has its side effects. Instead of avoiding using trackers and tracking ads, many websites bother users to manage their cookie preferences before allowing access to the content they came to see.
You are often required to click on multiple steps to manage such cookies, including hidden options, a dialog on every single page, or at times no way to deny them at all. Naturally, this makes for a frustrating browsing experience.
This leads to clicking “allow” or “accept” without realizing that you unwittingly just gave permission for trackers to create behavioral profiles about you.
Often, these clicks happen due to the fact that a website may not work without accepting the cookie dialog. We do not believe that this should be considered “consent”, and this tactic should not be allowed at all.
That is why, in this update, we let the cookie dialogs crumble! How?
Now you do not have to rely on extensions and can block a majority of these pestering dialogs and enjoy faster browsing through an option in our built-in Ad and Tracker Blocker when enabled.
While we evaluate ways to make the Cookie Crumbler available in our user interface and determine if it can be enabled by default, you can give it a try. Go to Vivaldi’s menu — Settings — Privacy — Tracker and Ad blocking — Manage Sources — Ad blocking sources and enable the “Remove cookie warnings” lists.
This will simply block the service that asks for consent, or hide the consent dialog, in the same way as it might remove a tracker or an ad.
This feature is based on the regularly updated third-party block lists — EasyList Cookie List and ‘I Don’t Care About Cookies‘. While Cookie Crumbler works on most of the websites, this is not a perfect solution, as there will be a few websites that use other tactics to obtain cookie consent.
Please note that some sites may not let you in at all and may not work as you expect them to as they actually require cookie consent for some functionality but you can disable Vivaldi’s Ad Blocker on those sites to disable the Cookie Crumbler. Also, note that blocking cookie consent dialogs may not have the same result as rejecting all cookies on some websites.
FLoC no, in Vivaldi. User privacy is paramount:
Unlike some browsers that track every step of your online activity, Vivaldi does the opposite. No data collection. No user profiling. Not even tracking of product features that you use in Vivaldi.
In fact, we keep track of technologies that are harmful to user privacy. One such privacy-invasive technology is FLoC by Google, which builds profiles, and tracks you, in the absence of third-party cookies.
As FLoC has privacy risks, we’ve blacklisted the FLoC component in this update onwards. This means it will not be downloaded and will be removed if it has already been downloaded.
In the previous versions of Vivaldi, Google’s FLoC experiment was prevented from working by not setting the hidden settings that it needed in order to run.
Note: You may still see a “FLoC” folder in your profile if you previously used a version where the component was installed, but this folder will not contain any profiling data since the feature never worked in Vivaldi, and it can be safely deleted or ignored.
Panels redesigned. Light, fresh and shiny:
New slick icons. No borders. The content now shines through the Panels. Literally.
We’ve rebuilt the Panels.
Adding flair and personal style to a product you use every day is natural and, really, what Vivaldi is about. The design overhaul of Vivaldi’s Panels puts you on top working with essential tools such as Bookmarks, Downloads, Notes, History, Window Panel, and Web Panels.
The new design upgrade makes the whole Panel transparent on top of the background image of your choice. It includes new options that make the browser visually stunning:
Opacity for the Panel background: Once the opacity setting is enabled, the image is shown through the Start Page Background. This setting also affects the Speed Dial Title background.
Frosted look: Enable or disable blurring of the Panel background to get that “frosted” look.
Transparent Tab Bar: When enabled, the colored area behind the tabs can be completely removed. This allows the background image to show through here as well, completely covering the browser window. The Tab Bar area is also affected by the Blur setting.
If you prefer to stick to the way Panels were before, simply set the opacity to 100% and disable the Transparent Bar.
We’ve also moved the Start Page Background settings to the Themes category. Now it is easier to find a good image that fits your current theme, and the best possible matching settings (colors, images, and opacity)
Rediscover the magic of Bookmarks:
In Vivaldi 3.8, we’ve added a more powerful and quick way to add your bookmarks. Now when you press CTRL/CMD + D to bookmark, we add it instantly, without the need to open the dialog at all. Easy.
If you do want to open the dialog (by clicking the Bookmark button in the Address Bar), you’ll notice a lot of new choices:
Quickly filter between regular bookmark folders and speed dials folders.
Search for an existing bookmark folder or create a new one directly in the dialog.
A complete tree-view, with all folders available to expand and collapse
Other new bits in Vivaldi 3.8:
Disable Mouse Gestures: Just like Keyboard Shortcuts, Mouse Gestures can now be turned on and off in Quick Commands.
Add ‘Extensions’ to Quick Commands: The previous version bolded the keyword when searched for in Quick Commands. From now on, users can now open extension pop-ups through Quick Commands by just typing in the extension’s name
Show menus for extensions through Quick Commands: This lets you show menus for extensions you have installed via quick commands. You could already do this without quick commands. So it adds power to QC.
Open tabs outside of stacks with Quick Commands: This is just being able to assign a new keyboard shortcut (or gesture or use quick commands) to open tabs outside of stacks when you are in a stack.

Work or play, most of us are living in a browser today. We rely on the browser to create connections and get our work done. But it can get frustrating if the browser, its tabs, or windows take a wee bit longer to open.
The latest update of Vivaldi addresses this concern. It offers a faster version that will help you shave off seconds, even minutes of your day and potentially hours in a year. Now the browser tabs open twice as fast. Even a new window now opens 26% faster than before.
Vivaldi 3.7 also includes native support for Apple computers using the new ARM-based M1 processors.
It is hard to shed our habit of adding more flexible functionality to boost productivity and performance in every update. Even in this version, you’ll find some new options to our built-in features such as configurable Menus, Web Panels, and Quick Commands.
We just don’t want you to slow down. So go ahead and download the new faster Vivaldi on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers.
Do things quickly and well with a faster Vivaldi:
Performance can be influenced by your computer and the way you have set up your browser, but we want to make sure that no matter how you choose to browse, your experience is faster than before.
How did we make Vivaldi faster? We simply prioritized performance in our to-do list. Just the way you take care of your car in the garage, so that it takes care of you on the road, we did a lot of under-the-hood improvements to the browser.
We knew the improvements were significant, so we tested the new version against the previous version Vivaldi 3.6. Here are the areas you’ll find a noteworthy difference.
Double up the power. Tabs in Vivaldi will open twice as fast:
Using multiple tabs is something you probably do all the time. And for some of the focused work you do daily, the speed of opening a new tab may be perfectly fine. But not for us. We realize that there is room for more speed here.
While we let you handle your tab chaos with the recently introduced Two-Level Tab Stacks (confession: we are still gushing over the response to this innovation), we also want the opening and closing of tabs to be more swift, helping you save time.
Opening of tabs is faster now — facilitating a better user experience and increasing speed up to 2x as fast as the previous version (based on our internal benchmarks*).
Look out for the Vivaldi window. It opens 26% faster than before:
Many of you may use several browser windows to get your work done. For example, you have a window open for work and another one for your personal stuff.
Vivaldi now opens a new window more quickly, making navigation super-fast. In Vivaldi 3.7, new windows open 26% faster compared to the previous version of Vivaldi.
Oh, Vivaldi arrives on M1! Here’s to our new friendship:
Vivaldi is now available for Apple’s new Macs with ARM-based M1 processors — a development much-awaited by Mac lovers who browse with Vivaldi or were holding themselves back until we got this in.
Apple’s M1 chip powers its line-up of MacBooks. It’s substantially faster than the Intel-based processors that previously powered Apple products.
Those of you lucky enough to have M1 Mac Mini, Macbook Air, or Macbook Pro systems will enjoy browsing with Vivaldi’s flexible features even more now. Browsing with Vivaldi is 2x faster when we tested internally on a Mac machine using M1 processors upping the overall performance.
Just a tiny bit more on speed and customization in Vivaldi:
We just cannot help adding more ways for you to save time and stay organized. Here are a few new options to get your work done faster:
Periodic Reload in Web Panels: Taking a cue from one of our most loved features, Periodic Tab Reload, the websites added as Web Panels will reload at regular intervals too. This works especially well if a news site has been added as a Web Panel, displaying up-to-date information that is worth keeping an eye on.
Declutter a crowded Tab Bar in two clicks: Tab hoarders can easily create multiple tab stacks at once via ‘Tab Stack by Hosts’. The new Stack Tab by Hosts will go through all tabs and stack the ones from the same domain.
Configurable Web Page Menu: Menus — unconventionally customizable — add a new option that allows you to edit the context menus that you open when right-clicking anywhere on a web page. Now you can fine-tune your big menus and move items that are not used frequently.
Quick Commands, more dynamic: The keyword that you search for in Quick Commands is now bolded, similar to how search words are highlighted in the Address Bar — suggesting search strings that help you find what you’re looking for faster.
Also, you can periodically reload websites through Quick Commands. Just type “Periodic reload 2”, press enter and the tab will reload every 2 mins.
Shh! Silent updates for Windows: The process to add support for silent updates to Vivaldi on Windows has been started. Not really trivial, a part of the process will be activated in regular updates in the future.
Nothing beats a live performance. Test it out:
While we add more features, simplify navigation and help you manage your tasks, we shall continue to work on improving performance. This is an ongoing process and we hope you will enjoy these gains in Vivaldi as much as we do.
As always, please share your feedback with us so that we can build Vivaldi together, even better. Head to our changelog for more details.

New in Vivaldi 3.6.2165.34 (Jan 29, 2021)

The solution to too many tabs in a tab bar is here – a second tab bar in Vivaldi.
Six years ago, in Vivaldi’s first public appearance on desktop and notebooks, we unveiled Tab Stacks – the ability to group and manage tabs together. Today, we introduce Two-Level Tab Stacks, a feature that takes our tab functionality to the next level, literally.
With Two-Level Tab Stacks, in our latest version Vivaldi 3.6, stacked tabs are displayed in a second tab bar. This first-of-its-kind functionality opens up a new way of viewing and managing tabs on desktops and notebooks.
Tabs are an essential part of browsing but many struggle when it comes to organizing and managing tabs.
Over the years, we have strengthened our comprehensive tab functionality with modern, built-in features that adapt to how you work today (even more so in times of remote-working).
Our plethora of tab features such as Tab Stacks, Tab Tiling, Vertical Tabs, and Auto Stacking help you view, manage, and navigate between tabs in the browser easily.
Two-Level Tab Stacks explained:
Tab Stacks in Vivaldi help you organize a group of tabs by dragging one tab over another.
In Vivaldi’s original implementation, stacks take up no more space than a single tab. This keeps the browser window tidy and is an efficient way to quickly access a large number of tabs. Clearly, the focus is on staying compact.
While Compact Stack is still a great view for those of you who wish to maximize screen space, Vivaldi’s new view – Two-Level Tab Stacks – goes a notch higher.
By simply clicking on a stack, you expand and show the content of the stack, with full-size tabs on a new line. Having full-size tabs means that you can manipulate them like any other tab, using the same methods to open, close, activate, move or select tabs within a stack.
You can organize Tab Stacks any way you like while keeping a full overview – drag, hibernate, mute, and even rename as needed. All the tabs are instantly accessible, without the need to constantly switch windows, profiles, or workspaces.
The feature is enabled by default and you can easily switch between Compact and Two-Level Tab Stacks. Simply head to Tabs in Vivaldi Settings.
Two-Level Tab Stacks: better display, more control:
The new feature is useful for people who would like to display their stacked tabs in full size. It works whether the tabs are placed on the top, bottom, or to the side.
The new, second level makes reorganizing stacks or creating new tabs within a stack a breeze. For example, the “+” button on the new line lets you easily create tabs within the stack. The feature offers all the other benefits of normal-sized tabs, like easier to read page titles, tab notifications, and (if enabled) tab thumbnails.
In addition, Two-Level Tab Stacks can be locked, which avoids changing the page view height when switching between tabs, and makes it simpler to create new stacks from any single tab.
Vivaldi’s Tab Management: Tabs for an organized life:
The extensive tab management tools in Vivaldi are fun, efficient, and rewarding for tab hoarders. You are in control of tabs. Our built-in tools also stop you from being reliant on third-party add-ons.
There’s a variety of options: from placing tabs at the top, bottom, or to the side to rounding the corners of your tabs. The thoughtful structure and design benefit everyone from first-time Vivaldi users to the most demanding pros.
You can have a split-screen view of multiple sites with Vivaldi’s Tab Tiling or easily view open tabs in tree-style in the Window Panel.
Switching between tabs is seamless with Tab Cycling – the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Tab lets you cycle through open tabs and display them as thumbnails (the horizontal cycler), or as a list of titles (the vertical cycler).
For speedy navigation, you can use the pre-set keyboard shortcuts for tab related commands or assign different keyboard shortcuts based on personal preference.
Similarly, editable Mouse Gestures help perform tab related commands. Instead of clicking on a tab, switching tabs is faster through Quick Commands.
There are multiple ways to open and close tabs. Jumping to the previously opened tab with one click is a nifty time-saving trick while an accidentally closed tab can be easily retrieved from the Trash.
Looking out for tabs is much easier when you display Tab Thumbnails. Tab Notifications, displayed on both pinned and regular tabs, act as reminders of new content waiting to be read – useful on social media sites.
Naming and saving a session works as a charm when you have a zillion tabs open especially while researching a topic. Placing tabs in a Web Panel avoids clutter and is handy when using a translation tool or a messenger app on a daily basis.
Fun customization options enable you to add personality to your tabs such as the ability to round tabs or make them angular, add custom window background to the Tab Bar or the accent color via Themes. Simply increasing the width of the active tab improves workflows and is useful when you have several tabs open.
There’s more in Vivaldi 3.6:
The desire to meet individual needs is something that motivates us to continue to polish our existing features while we introduce new ones. Our work on configurable menus is ongoing. You’ll notice that working with right-click menus is much easier. Now you can change and configure the entries that you could not before, e.g. in Downloads Panel, Windows Panel.
Configuring menus is not just about adding entries or moving items around but also about removing items you know you will never use. This will help you work more efficiently.
New year, new version:
With the new version, you can handle an extraordinary amount of information while staying organized. Two-Level Tab Stacks is an example of how we innovate for you. Thank you for putting your trust in us. You deserve it.
Do download Vivaldi 3.6 and try out the ‘next level’ of tab stacking. � We’d love to know what you think.

New in Vivaldi 3.5.2115.87 (Jan 8, 2021)

New in Vivaldi 3.5.2115.81 (Dec 11, 2020)

New in Vivaldi 3.5.2115.73 (Dec 8, 2020)

With the latest version of Vivaldi on desktop and notebooks, we bring new updates to our built-in features, and overall improvements.
In Vivaldi 3.5, we’ve also added a convenient way to easily share URLs with QR (Quick Response) code via a small button in the Address Field, when enabled.
There are a variety of fixes in Vivaldi 3.5 including media fixes that will allow videos/audios to play better.
More ways to manage Tabs:
Each one of you has different ways of working with tabs. Based on your feedback, we include all possible options in our comprehensive Tab Management. Here are some new additions to our tab wizardry:
Open a new tab in the background by default: Instead of clicking on a link taking you to a new tab immediately, it will now open as a background tab.
Clone tab in the background: This will help you clone a current tab with previous page browsing history not interrupting any task you are currently working on.
Improved Popup Thumbnails for Tab Stacks: You’ll notice some changes while hovering a tab stack, helping you spot and select any tab in a stack instantly. More stacked tabs now fit on a screen, displaying a page title, domain, and thumbnail. You can also interact with audio icons, giving you easy control of sound in stacked tabs.
Media playback improvements:
Recently, some of you have been inconvenienced while playing premium streaming services like Amazon Prime HD, Spotify, Peacock TV, and others.
Such sites use DRM (Digital Rights Management) as a way to control where you can play videos. These websites may use Widevine – a Chromium content decryption module – to play the video in Vivaldi on Windows and macOS.
The websites may also check the Widevine certificate keys before playing. Vivaldi has now added Widevine certificate keys, which will allow videos to play on those websites.
This means media sites using Widevine DRM that previously did not work in Vivaldi will now deliver the content smoothly. For example, if you frequent Amazon Prime HD, Spotify, Disney+, Peacock TV in your browser, gear up for a better experience than before.
Please note that for Amazon Prime HD to work, click on the lock in the Address Bar → Site Settings → “Clear Data”. After this, a re-login is required.
Easy sharing of URLs with QR Codes:
You can now easily share URLs to other devices using a QR code generator built into Vivaldi.
Capable of storing a lot of data, QR (Quick Response) code lets you access information instantly. You can share addresses with other machines without the requirement of a direct network connection between them.
Scanning a QR code is much faster than retyping the URL on your other device. With QR codes, you can transfer the URL of the page you are currently viewing to another device, such as a phone, without needing a Sync account. This works well if you are not signed in to Sync, don’t have a device that supports Vivaldi Sync, or just wish to simply transfer the URL to a nearby friend’s phone.
We plan to evolve this feature with additional, simplified ways of sharing URLs.
Head to “Settings → Address Bar → Address Field Options → QR Code Generator” to enable QR code URL sharing.
Menu customization:
While some browsers strip down functionality, we do the opposite. We’ve expanded our Menu Settings with more customizable options helping you rearrange and edit your frequent actions.
Now, shortcuts assigned to a global command will also be shown in the context menus (right-click menus).
Go to “Settings → Appearance → Menus”, select a context menu, and add a command from the Application Commands that have a shortcut to the context menu. That menu will now show the shortcut for that action.
For example, add the reload menu that is used in the Tab Menu by default to any other Menu that is configurable and adjust your workflows per your needs in Vivaldi.
Single Key Shortcuts improvements:
In Vivaldi, you can do most things with keyboard shortcuts – opening and closing tabs, switching tabs, toggling the visibility of UI elements, creating notes, and a lot more.
Single Keyboard Shortcuts allow quicker navigation. You are not required to hold Ctrl or Shift. You can skip to the previous page by pressing z and the next page by pressing x. There are also default single key shortcuts such as by pressing 1 and 2, you can easily change tabs.
In this version, we resolve a clash in using Single Key Shortcuts. For example, if you need to enter a credit card number that has the number 1 in it, it will not switch to a previous tab which is what the default keyboard shortcut “1” has been assigned to.
New accept-language setting:
In order to cater to multi-language users across the globe, a language setting has been enabled that allows you to change to your preferred language, as supported by certain websites.
You can add custom languages or rearrange their importance with drag & drop reordering in Vivaldi Settings. Head to vivaldi://settings/languages to learn more.
Other additions:
Along with improvements to every aspect of the browser, you’ll find more options in Vivaldi 3.5:
We now give you more control in choosing external components. Google Hangouts, Google Cast, and Google Cloud Print can now be disabled entirely in settings.
We have added an option to always display the close tab button, to make closing tabs easier on touch screen devices. Find this new option in the Tab Settings.

More is more: configure context menus, add custom links:
Configurable menus, a functionality that Vivaldi introduced recently, lets you move your most frequent actions to the top of the menu in the vertical menu, facilitating quick access, and adjusting to individual workflows.
Now menu customization goes up a notch and you are able to configure context menus (right-click menus). Rearrange, add or remove the actions needed and tailor the browser according to your preferred workflow.
For example, move “Open in New Background Tab” to the top in the Bookmark Bar Item Context menu, add a direct link to the Vivaldi Forum in the main Vivaldi menu or make the menus compact by removing all the menu items that are not used.
With no limit to customization, you can even add fun elements by renaming the menu items with emojis.
Furthermore, custom entries can also be added to menus. For example, add the new Vivaldia game or any preferred site to the menu via an “Open link” command.
Adjust the menu via “Settings → Appearance → Menu”.
Periodic Reload of Tab: Stay up to date:
Vivaldi’s comprehensive tab handling gets even better with Periodic Reload of Tab – ensuring you are on the latest version of the site when you switch to a tab.
To enable Periodic Reload of Tab, right-click on a tab, move the mouse over the Periodic Reload menu entry, and select one of the available reload intervals.
The reload values for the tab can be set via a fixed list on the context menu of the tab or through quick commands to set an interval value (in seconds, with a minimum of 60).
There’s also a small countdown animation – a progress bar displayed underneath the tab to show the remaining time until the tab is reloaded automatically.
Periodic Reload of tabs is particularly useful while using other features in the browser. For example:
Set a tab with a news site on period reload when using Tab Tiling.
Or while working on another tab.
Or while refreshing a page that displays random content on every load.
Or simply to limit the memory usage of a site if it increases over time.
The Periodic Reload feature can be easily moved into a more convenient location or removed courtesy of the new context menu editing options.
And there’s more:
Capture directly to a new note: Capture options now include the ability to capture a screenshot directly into a new note. You can highlight the part of a page or choose a full page capture and create a note, a very helpful feature for doing research.
Choose a new avatar: You have the option to select a custom image for non-synced profiles via a new plus icon in the top left of the profile manager.
Easier Speed Dial folder creation: Simply drag one item onto another to create folders within your Speed Dial, making it even easier to reorganize and optimize access to your favorite web sites.
Simpler tiling: All tiling commands now take into consideration your previously active tab. So that your current and last accessed tab will be tiled, when not working with selections or stacks. You can activate tiling commands via Quick Commands, keyboard shortcuts or even map your own mouse gestures.

Vivaldi 3.3 on desktop and notebooks arrives with a Break Mode, a new default Theme for Private Window, clickable parts of URLs in the Address Bar, base domain highlighting, and improved Tracker and Ad Blocker.
We are excited to introduce the new Break Mode that will help you unplug from continuous work – improving work-life balance and focusing on activities outside the browser.
We also have a brand-new default Theme for Private Window. You can even set a custom Theme for Private Window that will help visually distinguish between regular and private windows.
You can now crop and click parts of the URL in the Address Bar and also easily identify legitimate or malicious Web Pages with the help of base domain highlighting in the URL field – an important security feature.
The integrated Tracker and Ad Blocker now supports rules that allow you to browse even more safely.
Vivaldi’s Break Mode: Pause the Internet:
For the millions of people working from home, the internet is always on. That may sound like nirvana for a browser company like Vivaldi – but in fact, it’s alarming. People are more productive and happier when they take proper breaks and have a variety of experiences.
Our built-in tools like Tab Tiling, Notes, visual History, full-page screen Capture, and more help you stay ahead. But in order to boost health and productivity, you also need to be present outside the browser and more importantly, simply switch off.
“Unplugging” from work is the top issue faced by many and the COVID-19 pandemic has only pressed the fast-forward button on remote work.
Without a daily change of location and defined office hours, many people have a tough time dividing their personal and professional time.
Enter Break Mode from Vivaldi, a new feature to help you unplug.
You can now take a break and put the Internet on pause to focus your attention elsewhere.
We want to give you the tools to stay productive, but we also want to empower you to manage your time well and balance all the things that are important to you.
Easily triggered with the new pause button at the left corner of the Status Bar, Break Mode mutes and stops HTML5 audio and videos, hides all tabs, panels, and other content leaving the screen clean.
Alternatively, Break Mode can be activated with Quick Commands or its shortcut Ctrl +.
Once the browser is paused, you can interact with the physical world – communicate with colleagues or loved ones, make a phone call, jot down those creative ideas on a piece of paper, exercise, take a power nap, or grab a cup of coffee in peace.
When ready, you can resume your browsing activity exactly where you left off. Press play to unpause the browser via Break Mode – everything will be visible again and audios/videos will restart.
While the built-in Break Mode feature underlines the power of taking a break and limits internet addiction, it is also the quickest way to stop or resume work with several advantages:
Work-life balance: With Break Mode, you can encourage a healthy work-life balance, improve your workflow, and communicate with friends, family, and colleagues in the real world.
Hide private content: Hide browsing activity or sensitive information on the screen at once if interrupted by a colleague or a family member, or when you simply need to step away from the screen for a while.
Shift focus: With Break Mode on, you can use another application and save resources from the browser especially if you have a number of tabs open or audio/video playing.
Go Blurple! New Private Window Themes:
Our ultra-customizable Themes now have more options.
You can already pick what you like from the eight predefined Themes in Vivaldi, create your own custom Themes, and even schedule them to change at a preferred time.
And taking cues from those who find it difficult to distinguish between a regular and Private Window with endless coloring options, we have a new “Private” Theme for Private Window by default – enhancing aesthetics and usability.
In addition to the brand-new blurple (a steady mix of blue and purple colors) as a default, you can also set unique custom Themes for Private Window(s) – something no other browser offers. Or else, you can go for matching Themes for both window types if that fits your workflow better.
Pick Themes for Private Window in Settings > Themes > Private Window Theme.
Base domain highlighting for improved security:
The privacy and security of users come first at Vivaldi – no user tracking, no user profiling, no data-collection.
In this version, we step it up and help you identify Web Pages that are malicious or legitimate by highlighting the base domain (eTLD+1) in the URL field.
You will be drawn towards the core part of the URL while the rest of the URL will be visible and lowlighted. This way you can recognize which company controls the domain and prevent scams and phishing attacks.
For example, earlier Vivaldi displayed a URL as www.google.fakesite.com but now the domain will be highlighted and displayed as www.google.fakesite.com
In addition, Vivaldi will also caution you with a warning icon if the Address Bar is very narrow or has been resized making the base domain difficult to read.
Easier cropping of the URL in the Address Bar:
The Address Bar is now further improved and has received a bunch of fixes in this update.
One standout feature is the addition of highlighted, clickable parts to the URLs – a unique functionality – these can be easily cropped by pressing CTRL (Cmd/⌘ on macOS) and clicking.
When holding CTRL while hovering in the URL field, you can see clearly where the URL will be cut. This allows you to rapidly move up directories and to new locations.
A fast, and convenient way to move about a website, even when the site’s own controls are poor or lacking, and one that is only found in the Vivaldi browser.
More new additions in Vivaldi 3.3:
Based on your suggestions and input, we continue to add more useful functionality to our much-loved features:
Full-Page Blocking Support: The built-in Tracker and Ad Blocker now supports blocking whole pages. You can provide your own sets of rules and can use the document option in block rules to block whole pages. This is a step towards greater compatibility with the uBlock Origin rule set.
Drag & Drop Speed Dials to folders: Similar to its browser on Android, Vivaldi’s signature Speed Dial now has the ability to drag and drop entries into folders easily on desktop – another way to organize sites better.
Take a break and download Vivaldi 3.3:
We are building on the distinct experience of browsing with Vivaldi. With every update, there are new capabilities to work, create, and communicate, and even relax with your favorite browser.
We hope you’ll give the new version a spin. � We look forward to your feedback.

Pop-out Video more complete:
Browsing habits and workflows of users vary, massively. And based on that, we strive to give you more different ways to browse with Vivaldi’s wide range of features.
Making every aspect of the browser useful is part of Vivaldi’s philosophy. Very recently, we transformed Vivaldi’s basic note-taking implementation into a full-blown Notes Manager.
And Pop-out Video is no different.
Vivaldi’s much-loved Pop-out Video has come a long way since it was first launched, hidden behind menus and extra clicks.
Pop-out Video allows you to watch HTML5 videos in a separate, movable & resizable floating window while you carry on browsing in other tabs. Catching a match while getting on with work has never been this easy.
Over time, we’ve added more functionality to Pop-out Video – thanks to your constant feedback it’s now more discoverable and straightforward to use.
This latest version of Vivaldi gives you greater control over how you watch video content with any video provider, e.g. YouTube, Netflix, Twitch, and more.
Pop videos out easily: A single click on a small video box icon displayed in the center of the video will launch it in a separate movable, resizable, floating window.
If you wish to focus on another task, this feature can be disabled in the Settings under Webpages.
Mute and unmute: In the new version, a critical piece of the puzzle is added – the mute button.
This makes Vivaldi one of a few Chromium browsers to offer a user-friendly implementation of this functionality – users can mute and unmute with just one click while watching videos in picture-in-picture mode.
The mute button is a welcome addition in the current scenario of “work from home” or “stay at home”. It comes in handy if users suddenly need to jump into an online meeting, take a phone call, or deal with other interruptions.
Video controls: There’s a slider to seek specific positions in the video all from directly within the pop-out, with play & pause, and a “back to the tab” buttons to watch Pop-out Videos more intuitively.
Watching a video that’s part of a playlist shows forward and back buttons and allows users to skip tracks or go back to something that caught their fancy.
Control sound in a Pop-out through Tabs and Quick Commands: Users already have powerful control of sound behavior in the Vivaldi browser through Quick Commands or Mute Tab Audio in Settings where they can turn off the sound when necessary.
Even though the sound can be turned off/on in the Pop-out Video directly, a simple right-click on the tab of the video in which it is playing is another convenient option to mute/unmute.
Stay ahead and multitask by using any of the above functionalities to mute/unmute Pop-out Videos depending on your workflow and the features that you prefer to use in Vivaldi.
Stay tuned for more:
Going ahead, we’ll continue to augment our features, introduce new ones, and ensure an even better browsing experience for you. That leads to more exciting offerings this fall. �
For now, take the new version for a spin – our first after the summer break in the Northern Hemisphere.
Take a look at the detailed changelog below. We hope we’ve managed to get most of your fixes in. If not, stay tuned for the next update.

Vertical reader mode:
Vivaldi’s Reader View cuts out the clutter and helps you focus on the part that matters – the content. It lets you increase the font size, adjust the line height and column width, and switch to dark or light background for easier reading on the Web.
We continue to innovate in this space and in this release introduce vertical reader mode, a first for browsers. This unique functionality came about as a response to needs of users of Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages. No matter where you live or what language you read or write, your individual requirements are vital to us.
A vertical display is one of the default ways to view written text in East Asian languages. We are confident that if you use any of these languages, the option to use vertical reader mode will be a useful addition. Now you can read texts in these languages comfortably with no distracting page elements. The vertical orientation is also a great use of your screen’s real estate. Select your reading preference by heading to Webpages in Settings and click on vertical text direction to try it out.
Markdown support to Notes:
Go native, rely less on add-ons! With this in mind, we have built many differentiating features over the past three years. One of our signature features, Notes has been significantly improved. Notes are useful as you can write them in the left-hand column while you research the Web, add a screenshot of the site you are browsing and even capture a selected area of text.
In version 1.14, you can now add formatting to your Notes by using Markdown. Markdown is an efficient and intuitive way to apply formattingused by many sites including GitHub, Reddit Stack Exchange, the Vivaldi forums and many more.
This upgrade to Notes makes the feature even more interesting and productive. Now, you can quickly and instantly format text by adding headers, bolding and bulleted lists to your notes while surfing the web. This way you can organise notes, compose emails, to-do lists and more. You can use Notes to write longer emails, novels, and pretty much all other types of text documents. In addition to Markdown formatting, you can also use this option to preview simple HTML.
Rearrangeable Web Panels:
Vivaldi’s Web Panels have been a favourite for many users and have been much appreciated from the very beginning. And we are always on a lookout for ways to improve this nifty, time-saving tool which lets you quickly browse social media or news sites without switching tabs. You can even set custom widths per site in the sidebar so that the size of your sidebar adjusts depending on the panel being viewed.
In Vivaldi 1.14, you have now the ability to customize the order of the Web Panels in the sidebar of your browser. This way you can choose your web pages on the fly to make your browsing more interactive and convenient.
Reorder Search Engines:
Vivaldi gives you multiple options for searching the web such as the ability to add your preferred search engines or select from an array of default alternatives like privacy-friendly DuckDuckGo or eco-conscious Ecosia. Or, use nicknames to quickly search using a chosen engine without any fuss (e.g. preceding your search term with “w ” to search wikipedia).
One of the most-requested functionalities makes its way into the latest version care of your feedback. You can now change the order of your search engines, adding more flexibility to your setup. With the new list layout, you can drag-n-drop (or use the keyboard) to put search engines in the order you want, with ease.

New in Vivaldi 1.11 (Aug 10, 2017)

Advanced Reader Mode:
Vivaldi’s Reader Mode provides a clutter-free reading environment by stripping off unwanted advertisements, videos and other distractions. With version 1.11, users can adjust the settings right at the top of the page they’re currently viewing in the Reader Mode. Without having to navigate away from the page, they can choose the font type and size of the text, set the column width and line height, as well as select either dark or light background.
Vivaldi’s custom Themes add another dimension to the improved Reader Mode. Users can choose their custom Theme and apply it to the Reader Mode. Custom Themes in Vivaldi have programmatic support to enforce minimal contrast, which makes the browser more comfortable for people with visual impairments.
Easy way to turn off GIF animations:
Vivaldi now offers a simple way of turning off GIF animations – a convenient option for people who react to flashing images and want to avoid them. Clicking on the Toggle Images icon in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen reveals three options for loading animations – always, once or never.
Adjustable Mouse Gesture sensitivity:
Editable Mouse Gestures in Vivaldi let users execute a command with a simple movement of the mouse. This accessibility feature lets users make their own mouse gestures at their convenience. In version 1.11, users get even more control over this feature with the ability to set the minimum stroke length for the gesture to be registered. The default minimum stroke length is set to 5 pixels and can be increased to up to 100 pixels, all controlled with a slider in the Settings.
Accessibility in Vivaldi:
Other popular accessibility features in Vivaldi include...
Spatial navigation – the ability to quickly navigate to content with less input.
Quick Commands and keyboard shortcuts – controlling the browser from keyboard.
Zoom – ability to zoom on selected pages and set a zoom level on a per tab basis.
Meet the new V:
Releasing version 1.11, Vivaldi updates its application icon to better reflect its innovative and yet playful side. The new icon with a rounder shape and a cleaner contemporary look has a friendlier appeal and makes the signature “V” stand out.

New in Vivaldi 1.0 (Apr 6, 2016)

Tab Stacks: Feel like you have too many tabs open? Vivaldi solves that with tab stacks. Drop tabs on top of each other to create a stack. It’s the fastest way to reduce clutter and keep organized. And when you’re ready to switch between tabs, Vivaldi has a number of customizations for that too.
Tab Stack Tiling: Have a big screen? Tile that tab stack and see multiple pages at the same time! With multiple tab stacks, it is like having multiple desktops!
Sessions: Take browser management to the next level. Save your favorite set of tabs as a session for later retrieval.
Notes: The perfect tool for researchers. Mark that quote and save it as a note. Vivaldi can remember which site you were browsing at the time, and allow you to take screenshots as well.
Quick commands: Access open tabs, bookmarks, history, settings and more through a command interface.
Mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts: If you really want to operate the browser at lightning speed. Mouse gestures turn a flick of the wrist into almost any action in the browser. Keyboard shortcuts do the same with simple key combinations.
Speed Dial: Your favorite sites and bookmarks easily accessible from any blank tab. Include Groups and Folders for even more Speed Dials!
Better bookmarks: Access your bookmarks from the bookmarks panel, bookmarks manager, bookmark bar and of course Speed Dial.
Web Panels: View websites in your Vivaldi sidebar. The perfect way to browse tweets, Facebook posts, or chat alongside your primary browsing window. We like to say it’s the next best thing to a “Boss button” for the web.
Personalized: Vivaldi adapts to you, not the other way around. We made Vivaldi the most customizable browser, all based on feedback from millions of users. In fact, there are more than 1 million different ways to make Vivaldi your perfect browser.
And of course there’s more: Plenty more features to discover to ensure you stay productive and effective on the web. Plus, Vivaldi supports Chrome add-ons, although hopefully you won’t need too many with so many features available out of the box.
