Vivaldi Browser - Customizable Privacy Browser

We are developing a rapid and highly customizable web browser that emphasizes your privacy over profit. This is an Internet browser that adjusts to your preferences rather than requiring you to conform to it. Vivaldi browser is equipped with innovative features such as desktop-style tabs, a built-in Ad Blocker, tracker protection, and a private translation tool. You can personalize Vivaldi with various themes and layout options to truly make it yours.

Personalized Speed Dial

Enhance your browsing speed by adding favorite bookmarks as Speed Dials on the new tab page, ensuring they are just a single tap away. Organize them into folders, choose from multiple layout styles, and customize it to suit your taste. You can also easily switch between Search Engines while typing in Vivaldi’s Address Field using nicknames (for example, use “d” for DuckDuckGo or “w” for Wikipedia).

Tab Bar with Two-Level Tab Stacks

Vivaldi is the first Android browser to offer two rows of mobile browser tabs. Try it out by long-pressing the New Tab button and selecting “New Tab Stack”! You can opt for a Tab Bar, ideal for larger screens and tablets, or utilize a Tab Switcher for managing your tabs. The Tab Switcher allows you to quickly swipe through open or private tabs and even view tabs you’ve recently closed or accessed on another device.

Genuine Privacy and Security

Vivaldi ensures that your online behavior is not tracked. We actively work to block other trackers that attempt to monitor you while you navigate the internet. Maintain your internet browsing history privately with the use of Private Tabs. When you use these tabs, none of your searches, links, sites visited, cookies, or temporary files will be saved.

Built-in Ad & Tracker blocker

Pop-up ads and interruptions are some of the major irritants of online browsing. With a few simple clicks, you can eliminate them. The integrated Ad Blocker stops invasive ads and prevents trackers from following you, without needing any extensions. Additionally, this enhances your browsing speed and safety.

Smart Tools 🛠

Vivaldi is equipped with built-in tools to improve app functionality and reduce the need to switch between applications. Here's a glimpse:

- Obtain private translations of websites using Vivaldi Translate (driven by Lingvanex).

- Take Notes while browsing and sync them securely across all devices.

- Capture full-page screenshots or just the visible portion and share them instantly.

- Scan QR Codes for easy sharing of links between devices.
