About this app

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The new update has made the mobile view of the browser wonky. The settings for the size of texts no longer works properly like it did before. Now everything is extremely large and zoomed in or entirely too small and hard to read. I opened the browser today, and I swear the people in the next state could read the web page I was on. Going into the settings to try and adjust the size just made everything so small I could barely see the text and images. Why fix what isn't broken?

Much better than Firefox or DuckDuckGo. Smoother and more efficient than Chrome. I was using Chrome for years, then I switched to Opera. It's smooth and fast browsing, with no unnecessary pop up pages or separate link pages that burden Chrome browsing. I tested it side by side with Chrome, using the exact same search and browsing pages on each and found that Opera sorted through the sites and pages much more efficiently. Better bookmark features, easier browser history cleaning, and free VPN.

PLEASE FIX PIP!!! I love Opera when you turn off the news and ads that come along with it, bc it has the ad and tracker blocker and vpn. plus you can force webpages to be dark mode (sometimes you can't see some things, but you can just switch)love it. BUT I WANT MY PIP BACK! I used to be able to close out the app and my videos would still play in a small window overlay that I could move around, but it's gone now and my whole way of life has changed, no joke! I lived for my PIP! BRING IT BACK !!!
