When is Opera browser going to add a popup window and background audio playing option? I use this browser above 70 percent but still have to use brave browser as it provides both of these features. I am requesting this for a long time. Please. Can team confirm about this coming?

@ROCKKER-55 Pop-up windows? It's to vague.
And what do you mean by background audio playing? If you mean to listen to something in Opera while using another app, it's already possible. You may just need to give permission to Opera to do that.

@leocg I have already given permissions in the settings for display popup window in the background but still it doesn't take it. And I am talking about android browser versions. I don't know whether you guys test or ask users to give feedback via within the app but I can't see popup or background audio playing happen. While brave and bromite it is very easily happening. If I change the tabs with one playing the audio while another of the news site then it stops playing within the browser itself and when you leave the browser it stops fully. I really want to update my review on play store please help me with this. Plus the newer versions of opera are crashing if you leave the browser to attend something else like a call or a message. Thanks. Would be waiting for a positive reply.

@leocg You removed my post and also the link to which it is redirected to. I don't know have to check it or not but I cant see what is telling me. And this was for android browsers both beta and main.

@ROCKKER-55 I've tested here and it worked. Maybe some sites don't allow sounds playing in background.

@ROCKKER-55 Regarding the crash, open a topic following the instructions to report/discuss it.

@leocg Either you have checked it on other platforms and not on android as I said multiple times or you are not taking my words seriously? I still cant play any video or music or anything in the background or leaving one tab for another in opera browser android.

@leocg I don't know what should I state while opening the post. It is the latest version and the app looks very heavy like a chrome browser and as soon as you leave the browser, it crashes. I did get any of these experiences in previous versions, from 60 (55.692) I am not feeling the lightness that I felt before.

@ROCKKER-55 I've checked with Opera for Android 61 using SoundCloud page. I was able to open a new tab while keeping listening to the sound from SoundCloud.
I was also able to use another app while listen to sound in Opera.

@leocg first, you can't see that happening with YouTube mobile site. And for YouTube music mobile site, it doesn't open only shows a black page. I have recorded 2 videos to prove my point.

@ROCKKER-55 YouTube only allows background playing for those using YouTube Premium.

@leocg Can you explain me this why this is not with bromite browser, brave browser, vivaldi browser, yandex browser, firefox mobile browsers and UC browser which can play them easily?

@ROCKKER-55 A clarification is needed here. You are talking about playing video in one tab while surfing in another tab or you are talking about playing a video while in a different app?
Not sure about the first situation but the second one can only officially happen if you use YouTube Premium.

Opera Android's ad blocking effect is very unsatisfactory,Can I add rules and rule sources by myself?
If not, does opera plan to add this function? -
