Thanks again for reporting
Opera for iOS Product Team
Thank you for reporting this!
Its a known issue and we have a fix ready that is about to be released. However, the update is currently stuck in Appstore app review, so it got delayed. Once we have sorted out the issues it will be available.
Just for clarification:
There is currently no sync support on Opera for iOS as present on desktop and android browsers. Signing in to the Opera account website will not sync the browser, just give access to the account via webpage. There is no special native app to webpage integration.
Note: The only syncing available is via the Flow feature that syncs Flow messages and tabs on connected devices.
Why no sync on iOS:
Its an old legacy issue, other platforms are based on the chromium open source and gets sync as part of the package (with a lot of actual coding on top), on iOS this needs to be implemented from scratch to play with the other platforms. Its not a trivial task, but will take months to implement.
When can we expect it:
We intend to start working on the account/sync task the next few weeks and after that it will take quite some time of development and testing before we can launch. A lot of testing. Lets hope for a christmas present.
In case you missed it:
Standard bookmarks support was added on Oper Browser for iOS in April.
Sync and import bookmarks feature is on the roadmap for this fall.

Hi
Standard bookmark support will arrive very soon on Opera for iOS.
It will include a universal 'star' function from menu that allows you to add a favorite/bookmark to either the Speed Dial or the Bookmark section.
You will be able to add, edit and move and will be able to create your own bookmark folder structure and organize your favorites.
The bookmark feature needs to be in place in order for us to start working on sync which will be the next step.
Hi
I am sorry for the inconvenience.
We can indeed confirm that the Tab UI started to open at top position, its a bug/regression and we will work on a fix asap. The tabUI should focus on the tab you are currently on.
Since we need to both fix and test it before release i expect that the update will be early next week.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Best regards,
Opera

Hi
The Google account page you are showing which refers to your signed in devices are a bit blunt, i.e. not so exact.
I dont know exactly how Google detects this but I did a quick test by signing in to Opera Touch and another browser on iOS.
If you sign in to your Google account on any browser or other app for that matter that uses the system webkitview (that every app that displays a webpage needs to use on iOS, also Safari) it seems to be detected by Google as a "signed in on Safari"
in some cases Google recognizes the browser, like Chrome or Firefox, but for any other browser I checked, it was "signed in on Safari"
Opera Touch ask for location, when a webpage request it, like Google maps.
Beside that Opera would know what region and language you are using on your device from the device system info. Which we use for setting language and analytics.
Best regards,
iOS version should not make any difference. Did you update Opera Touch to latest version (2.5.3)?
If you have update Touch and it still fails you can try this workaround:
Its for existing wallets with assets and something that worked prior to the latest fix (Note: it requires reinstall and backup phrase):
Please let me know what worked.
Hi
The issue has been fixed now and an update released. Pls update Opera Touch, open the browser and go to settings to "Connect with computer" in the Crypto Wallet section.
The issue was caused by an invalid key, after the update the app will generate a new keys and the wallet on touch will be able to connect to desktop browser again.
We are sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you and that it took such a long time to fix. We hope you have no further issues.
Best regards,

Re:adblock
Our adblocker is based on easylist (same used by ad-block pro) and should block the same as adblock browser or the adblock pro extension.
However, for the adblocker to work properly in OfA you need to enable data savings and the adblocker feature in Settings.
There are some cases when you would still get ads.
The string for the setting is too long so it requires 2 rows, the second row doesn't really show except the top: Thats why it looks like spots.
We should shorten the string or alternatively truncate it.
