      @jacksth22 Just tried this and it did not work for me. I have a P7P as well but with the June 2023 security update. I use Opera GX and all I'm getting is "Failed to Connect" errors. Am I missing anything?

        Just upgraded to Opera browser v. 100 on laptop. Opera Flow on my ipad (also updated) no longer connected to laptop Opera Flow, and older data no longer there. Tried several times to connect; fails each time. However, I can connect my iphone Opera browser Flow. But I'm more interested in accessing info on ipad Flow. Frustrating

          Hello. I also do not have a connection between Desktop Opera and My Flow phone. The latest version is installed on the Opera One PC (version: 101.0.4843.33), and on the phone 76.4027.73374. I am using Windows 11.

            My Desktop version is 101.0.4843.43
            while my App version is updated till 5th september.

            For me it was solved by the solution that @kanczo has provided.

                If you ever try to connect My Flow from your Opera for Desktop with your Opera for Android, you may find out that "these devices never finish connecting" because Opera for Android give you a confirmation code that never shows up on your Desktop version. If this is your case, here is how to solve it:

                On your Opera for Desktop, instead of open My Flow to scan the QR code, open this link
                https://auth.opera.com/account/v3/desktop/login/scan-code. This link will give you a QR code to scan.

                On your Opera from Android, Opera My Flow and scan the preview QR code. After that, it will show you the confirmation code on this Desktop. Confirm it and done. Now you will have Opera Flow connected with your Android.

                Note: If you are using Opera Touch on Android, this problem does not apply to you. Only for User that have Opera for Android installed.

                  Unfortunately this didn't work for me, I still get the failed to connect connection declined error. This is my last straw with Flow, it constantly breaks and loses all my sent flow, with no way to ever recover it

                    Thank you! 😊
                    This worked for me. Spent much of yesterday and day before trying to get Flow to talk to each other.

                          @melving24 This worked for me, but I lost the items I had previously saved. They don't show up neither on desktop or phone. I thought this was saved on the web, somehow... Kinda dissapointing. It seems this feature needs a lot of work.

                            I had the exact same issue. It would say on my PC that it connected successfully, but there was nowhere for me to confirm the code. It finally worked with the link you posted here, I just had to wait a little after scanning the QR code and the code showed up on the website and I was able to confirm it.

                              @kanczo Didn't work for me because I never see "Follow these instructions...." Just wondering if I'm missing something obvious?

                                @melving24 Sadly, I get a blank white box instead of a QR code. I just don't know what to think. And on my phone, I open Opera's scanner and it won't scan. Just sits there.

                                  I found a solution th the problem described by OP.
                                  When your phone is on the "Follow thee instructions on other device" screen, just press the "Overview"(switching apps) button and force-close Opera. When you relaunch opera on your phone, flow should be already connected.

                                  It worked for me, it may not work for you, but i'm trying to help as much as i can.

                                  Worked for me. Thanks.

                                          Need to not use the flow option on the sidebar, just go to opera.com/connect in a new tab. Then you will need to disable opera's own tracker blocker. Should be straight forward instruction following from there.

                                            @biske bro u just saved me. apparently opera is just not redirecting the user to the right link, so the user cannot check the matching code. i just typed the link you posted and it magically sent me to a page with the verification code, so i just checked it and it worked! thanx a lot my man.
