@terrorfox-tech Hi there,

Hi all,
I have the same problem as suikoy and iiolavoii.
Some times (means some years) ago I somehow could connect desktop and my phone. It worked for a long time now.
But today somehow the connection was lost.And if I try to reconnect my phone (even if I scan the code from the mentioned homepage instead of the sidebar) after scanning the android smartphone shows the 6 digit confirmation code but the desktop jumps to "https://auth.opera.com/account/v3/desktop/login/login-success".
There is shown "Congratulation, succesfully logged in" and the question "What do you like to do now" with the 2 buttons "Your data is synchroniced" and "Manage subscriptions". That's all.Meanwhile the code on the phone times out and then I can restart the whole procedure...
I would be grateful for help.

It's just so irritating still have this problem after all that comments and all those new version of browser.

@chri-73 Same Issue, I explored both options it gives, "Synchronize your data "and "Manage your subscriptions", neither option seems to give anything related to the code on the android Opera app. Would be nice if the QR scanning worked properly to avoid this whole mess.

@mstfcbngl said in Opera Flow confirmation code not showing on desktop:
I think this method works at least for now.
Yes this is the only method that worked (Opera 80.6.4244.78244 on Android and Opera Stable 108.0.5067.20 on Windows PC). I'll say it step by step:
- Open opera.com/connect on PC
- Scan QR code from Phone
- When PC page says "Connection successful" go to phone and reopen Opera for Android (Click switch apps and slide Opera to close it then open it)
- Flow should work now (If not try checking IF connected to the same Opera account)
IMPORTANT: Developers must either make Connect page on PC to have confirmation code from phone or disable confirmation code on phone when connecting to a PC (as i think it's needed phone to phone)

One thing i noticed other the time, if you have an external VPN connected before starting Opera Stable (Windows), you lose account connection and so Sync and Flow are disabled each time. I didn't loose account connection since i don't connect the VPN before starting Opera anymore.

@terrorfox-tech this is not working for me. I'm using the website QR code and tried the sidebar QR code, but none of them make the confirmation code pop up on my desktop. Please help

Here this method worked too.
But I had to read in the Opera-forum long time and a lot of threads until I found this.
It's a shame that such an error is not fixed after years by the developers. And the cuminity needs to search for different workarounds to keep it running... -

@achhid the opera.com/connect method used to work for me too but it doesn't anymore
I don't know what else to do, I miss my flow T_T -

Alternatively, this fix from Reddit worked for me:
*Scan the qr code on your computer with your phone
When you get to the confirmation code page on your phone, open the app list on your android and swipe away Opera(literally close the app, right on the confirmation code screen).
Re-open Opera for Android, Flow should be linked on both devices*

I used this opera.com/connect QR code and the desktop browser does not request the confirmation code from the phone.
So what is another solution?
