      Thanks for the advice, everyone. I'v been leaving those defaults on my phone so I can see if a sync happens. So far, nothing. But your thoughts make good sense.

        @johnchasnoff Here's some more suggestions, first try refreshing the speed dial after signing out and back in, and if that doesn't work, try exiting Opera on Android (3 bar menu button on top left, Exit) then restart Opera on Android again. If that still doesn't work, then try Force Stopping Opera (Android Settings➡Apps➡Opera➡Force Stop) and then clearing the cache (Android Settings➡Apps➡Opera➡Storage➡Clear Cache). Restart Opera agan. I found that the last two steps (Force Stop and Clear Cache) would sometimes work for me when I'm trying to sync my open tabs. Hope this helps somewhat.

          @slytheringirl I appreciate you sticking with me. Bookmarks started syncing but not tabs. So I tried your suggestion above. After the Force Stop, my phone tabs showed up on my computer. But I don't see how to view the computer tabs on the phone. When I click on the tab button in Opera (the one that shows open tabs in either Normal or Private, I'm not seeing any of my computer's open tabs. Is this where they would be?

            Maybe I'm wrong but after testing:

            • I can see PC tabs on OMini
            • I cannot see PC tabs on OMobile

              @johnchasnoff To view synced tabs, tap on the 3 dot box at top right corner of android Opera then tap on "Synced tabs". Your open PC tabs should be there. If not, you can always get them at https://sync.opera.com/web/.

                @slytheringirl I can't see a "Synced tabs" option in that menu (see screenshot). But I've added your link to my speed dial so I can easily go there. Thanks.0_1516109526868_Screenshot_2018-01-16-07-25-24.png ![alt text](![image url](image url))

                  @johnchasnoff No Problem. What version of Opera are you using? I'm using the regular android version of Opera 43.

                    I have no "Other tabs" or at least not found it.

                    Do you have it?

                        @zalex108 Had to download Opera 44 onto my testing device. It took me a while, but I found out where they hid the synced tabs. (Yet another reason to hate Opera 44 😡 ) To see your synced tabs, you have to tap on the numbered square at the top right (see my screenshots) to bring up the new tabs menu/screen then tap on the curved arrows at the bottom left (see screenshots).

                        Hopes this helps.

                        [Edit] At first I could not get my open PC tabs to show up, but after checking with Opera 43, they suddenly showed up on Opera 44. So they do sync with me. It seems that with Opera 44 sync has gotten even more buggy than ever.

                          Ok,
                          I saw it but did not saw the Synced Tabs title,

                          and thought that would be the SpeedDial.

                          Thanks.
                          👍🏻

                            @zalex108 No problem. 🙂 As usual, the devs screwed up big time by not properly labeling things after redisigning the UI which IMO did not need redesigning. 🙄
