Could someone please give me an appx for Opera Mini?
I would be really thankful!
I think it is a really unfortunate that it was disconnected.
I rely on Opera since after my upgrade to WP10, Edge does not work on my mobile data as it has a extremely strict time out.
I really hope someone could link me an appx version that I and many other affected users could use.Kind regards,

Can anybody tell what has happened to Opera Mini in Windows Store?
https://mspoweruser.com/opera-mini-for-windows-phone-not-currently-available/As I have just read at this article, Opera Mini cannot be found on the store, and if one tries to send a link to Opera Mini on their mobile phone, they cannot download the browser. Also, they say that Opera Mini for Windows Phone has been removed from the Opera Start page.
http://www.opera.com/mobileOpera Team, please, leave the browser for us to use it as it is. Microsoft Edge doesn't have any data saving features. There are some third party browsers which are Edge based, but they don't have any data saving. There is only UC browser which have data saving, but even this one doesn't display the pages correctly, while Opera Mini does it well.
Can anybody say anything about this matter, I haven't heard any word about this from Opera Team? Please, don't leave Windows Phone users behind, this is the only browser which we can use while we are outdoors. Removing this up for Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10 mobile users would be almost the same as Opera Mini being removed from the Store for Nokia's S40 phones.
Also, if I should have written this elsewhere, please, let me know.

But if that is the case, then Windows phones are crippled. I have tried a dozen other browsers right now, and they all are cr*ppy compared to Opera Mini. Opera mini displays pages really well. Not perfect, but well, and its data saving is awesome.
I have compared it to Monument browser, and with only few short visits is spend over 6MB, while Opera Mini spent me about 10MB since the beginning of the month if I'm not mistaken. UC browser is no good for me either.
Maybe we could write a petition or something like that, do ask Opera to extend their support for Windows Phone/Mobile?
Right now it works well, but Opera Mini depends of their services, and it is only a matter of time when they will shut them down.

It seems that Windows Mobile is not that popular to worth developing for it.

I guess it would be better to try to make it more profitable.

I guess Mini will continue to work for a while like the versions for non-smartphones.

zalex108 last edited byO.O First heard about this.
If finally Windows Phone will port Astoria or something to use Android Apps, problem fixed, (I read around 1 or 2 years ago they stopped the development, but I don't know right now).
On the other hand, Windows Su***, both Windows Phone and Windows 10, Windows makeup with a *nix port (Settings) and in their own way, that is crap ...
Maybe because of this it's not worth the Opera efforts for Windows Phone.

windows phone market share is now below 0.3%.
microsoft closed down the phone production, selling it's "nokia" brand to foxconn.
so yeah, you could say win fon is now quite dead, it just doesn't smell funny yet... -

Welcome to Opera's forums @Maniem!
Since Opera Mini for Windows Phone has stopped its development the app has been retired from the Store, just users with Opera Mini installed before could access it.
I have access but I don't have my Lumia jailbroken and don't know if even with jailbrake it's possible to export it to be installed in another device...
Writing those lines...
Now I remember that I had installed a Xap file (I think) from XDA Developers, if you search and find the Opera Mini Xap file enabling Developer tools into your Lumia 630 maybe that way you could install it.At the other hand, try asking in XDA Developers, you'll find a better answer on how to install it if possible.
