No Opera Sync Option on iOS

Maybe I'm a different kind of breed. I really like the minimalist design of Opera on iPhone. I wouldn't want to have a fully flavored Speed Dial like Vivaldi has that syncs with your desktop PC, or similarly Safari (which I don't use because it's not available on Windows or Android, which I also work with).
I understand that people think different and would like to have better sync capabilities, but at least in my case, I don't really miss them.

I need everything sync'd between my computer and phone. Passwords, etc. Until the Opera mobile browser allows a sign in and sync option I'm sticking with chrome. Shame, I really like Opera otherwise

You could create a shortcut to sync.opera.com on your speed dial, so that you can reach your bookmarks from other devices:

I was just gonna stick with the Desktop version and use something else on my phone until the other day. I spent 2 hours getting my bookmarks updated, sorted, and categorized into folders and when I went into opera a couple hours later all the bookmarks were back to a jumbled mess, not sorted, when I started to adjust them back they automatically undid everything I just did so I'm done with Opera

The reason why Sync took some time was due to the fact that Opera on other platforms rely on Chromium sync. The Opera Browser for iOS app is not built on the Chromium code base. So the entire sync feature had to be written from scratch and integrate with the very complex chromium sync logic and mechanisms.
Note: The ability to sign in to Opera and sync one-way (i.e. import data from your Opera account and continuously be up to date with your other browsers) has been available since last year.

@jonaballen oh wow, thanks.
Will definitely give a chance to Opera again, although i've fully migrated to another one. -
david27 last edited by@jonaballen I've noticed Sync being present in Opera One weeks ago. The question is, is it also present in Opera GX?
