About this app

Vivaldi is a fast, private web browser for Android that runs your desktop extensions. It doesn't profile you, doesn't sell your data and blocks ads and trackers. No AI, no ad business, nothing to gain from watching what you do.
A full desktop-class browser, built in Europe by an independent company.

Ad and Tracker Blocker, your way
Choose how much of the web gets through: Off, Light, Strong or Aggressive. Pick a level when you set up Vivaldi, then change it for any site from the Shield icon in the address bar. Keep your bank on Light so every form works, and put video sites on Aggressive. Vivaldi remembers each choice. Build custom levels from your own block lists, and see what was blocked in the Privacy Report.

A browser with a built-in VPN
Tap VPN in the main menu and your browsing runs through a secure, encrypted connection. Websites see a VPN server instead of your IP address. It's free with your Vivaldi account, with no separate VPN app to install. The VPN covers browsing in Vivaldi, not your other apps.

Private browsing that leaves nothing behind
Private tabs keep searches, visited sites, cookies and temporary files off your device for true incognito browsing. Cookie banners are dismissed for you. Copy Sanitized Link strips tracking from links before you share them. Browsing data can clear itself every time you exit. We don't track you or sell your data, and the Data safety section on this page shows it.

The extensions you already use
What you rely on at your computer works on your phone. Keep Desktop site on while browsing the extension store. Not every extension is built for mobile.

A desktop browser in your pocket
Two rows of tabs, Tab Stacks you can group and expand, and a Tab Bar built for tablets and large screens. Long-press a link to open it in the Tab Stack you choose. Desktop Mode, a built-in PDF reader, Reader View and private translation in over 100 languages.

Fast, and made for your phone
Pages load fast without the ads and trackers that slow them down. Every tab playing audio shows up in your phone's media controls. When a page works better in its app, tap Open in app and your tab stays where you left it.

Personal and in sync
Speed Dial folders, themes, layouts and 20 app icons. Switch search engine mid-typing with a nickname: "d" for DuckDuckGo. Vivaldi is also a desktop browser for Windows, Mac and Linux, and bookmarks, notes, tabs and passwords sync with end-to-end encryption.

It's just so stripped down. You can't even see what time you visited websites in your history, and there's a lot of basic settings (like adding/editing search engines) that are affected by sync with desktop but can't be changed in-app. Rich customization is what makes the browser shine on desktop. The mobile app is very disappointing in that regard. Please just give us more settings in-app.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We understand how important customization is, especially if you're used to the rich options on desktop. Your feedback is valuable, and we're always looking for ways to improve the mobile experience. We appreciate your honesty and hope to meet your expectations in future updates.

It's gotten better with every update. Particularly happy they finally added tab stacks. I haven't had many issues, even when I have a lot of tabs open at once. It's a good compliment to the desktop browser, overall. My only real issue is that some of the settings can be hard to locate. The cookie message blocker, as one example, took me a little while to find.

Can't access history or bookmarks without the app crashing. Please help. EDIT: So, after a long time of using this app, I've decided to move on to something else. The search engine is messed up (if I search for something, and there's a keyword in my bookmarks, it just goes to whatever's in my bookmarks instead of what I was trying to search for.) I saw a strange glitch that had the icons turn upside down and every screenshot turn black. I'm done.
