      I'm running Opera Mobile Android, trying to use Flow to connect with Opera Desktop on Ubuntu laptop

      I have spend a huge amount of time trying to get Flow to work, with no success. I've tried everything suggested on all youtube clips, AI directed fixes - nothing has worked. On both devices - no vpn; cleared cookies, website data; connecting to internet via wireless router for both devices, and also wired connection for laptope to router; no router firewall; ufw firewall on laptop properly has needed ports 443 & 4021 allowed.

      I have tried to initiate Flow from both the phone & the lapton - phone failed to connect to computer each time.

      Expected behavior - once the "connect device" button is clicked in the Flow dialog box, and you open opera.com/connect, the laptop browser tab shows a QR code that the phone's camera is to scan & establish the link. I scan the QR code, but the phone's screen just hangs and the connection is never made.

      I would really like to get Flow up & working, if someone can help. Thanks in advance.
