      Hi everyone,

      I am experiencing an issue when using Opera on a foldable smartphone (switching between the main display and the cover screen).

      When trying to open or continue using Opera on the cover screen while Opers is already running, the system displays the following prompt:
      "Restart Opera? The size of this app cannot be adjusted while it is running. Restart the app to open it here, or open the phone to use it on the main screen without restarting."

      Because Opera currently does not support dynamic resizing across different screen aspect ratios while running, a full restart of the app is forced every time the device is folded or unfolded. This interrupts the browsing session and can lead to lost input on web forms. This prompt doesn't appear on apps like Chrome, Edge or Firefox (nor any other app except Facebook Lite).

      Could you please add support for seamless app resizing / continuity across folding and unfolding states without requiring an app restart?

      Device details:
      Device: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8
      Opera version: 101.3.5178.90032
      Android version: 17
