      I have the exact problem like you guys.
      I have Opera One i think, surely not GX or Air.

        Same here.
        Used it for several years. One of the recent updates broke it. Can't reconnect and have tried all suggestions I could find online.
        The phone is stuck on "follow the instructions on the other device" after scanning the QR code on "opera.com/connect" and the circle from hell spins forever on the phone, while nothing changes on the web page with the QR code. After a minute or two the phone says "failed to connect - connection declined on your other device".
        It has been a pain to get these connections going also earlier, but now it simply does not work any more.
        Newest version both on Mac and Android. Pretty annoying that they have to break things which were working perfectly fine.

            I've had the same problem for a few days now. Flow has stopped working unexpectedly in Opera One for Windows and Opera Mobile for Android. I still can't solve it.

              Exactly my same problem, I was watching a YT video and wanted to share it on Telegram messenger... but realised I've uninstalled it on my tablet for lag of space... So I try to send it to "MyFlow" ... and when went to my laptop ... i was disconnected on both, and I get disconnected also from my opera account synchronization on my laptop.
              Opera one (which just update it now to the last version)

                i recently installed Opera and wanted to connect it on my iPad (its currently on my windows). No matter what I do from emergency resetting or resetting it nothing works or cleared cache and cookies, nothing works. I cannot seem to even get the code to manually connect my PC and iPad.

                please let me know if anyone figured it out or knows another way to connect my devices.

                    @tarafab Is this the reason?
                    Flow also stopped working for me yesterday 😞

                      Opera GX user here. This has been my problem too! It's been a few days now and nothing has worked. I've made sure that I'm also up-to-date on the latest version of of the browser, but this seems to be a problem happening across the board. Supremely annoying and upsetting as I rely on My Flow for a ton of things and I love GX, but this is going to be a problem.

                        @pangi I don't know the reason. Browser dev tools show this error. Opera servers for Flow are unreachable, same as the last time. Having this many users report the same problems for this many days is just a sign of Opera team not giving a f&&&& to address the issue at all (and even when they get around to it, Flow data will be lost, just because. And I'll have to logout, reset, resync, drink coffee, sleep, wake up, and do it all over, on all devices. I'm not going to speculate about why is this happening this often and for this long, because after 20 years of using Opera as default browser, I'm already looking to switch to another browser. Flow was one of the most useful features, but it's obviously a nuisance for their shareholders (because Flow takes up their resources, and it's not a paid feature).

                          When flow didn't work for me - I complained to Aria. Within a week - the chat was fixed. And suddenly it doesn't work again - and no reaction from the developers. Who has already managed to complain to the AI?
                          I have a suspicion that the AI ​​is already working on the coding, and Aria should write and not on forums.

                            Found a possible solution:

                            Pros: Flow is fixed
                            Cons: all my stuff is gone (though this may have to do more with the emergency reset I did? I'm not sure whether that would have impacted my stuff since I couldn't access Flow with my phone either until I connected to my laptop browser)

                            1. right click on a link/image/anything
                            2. click 'send to my flow'
                            3. Flow started up instead of giving me the issues tab; I manually typed in the connection code (scanning QR code gave me an error message and couldn't connect)

                            Flow is now working, but starting from a blank slate.
