      I noticed recently that when I start Opera the Sync Tabs icon is missing and then randomly after some time it shows up again (I can't figure out now when that happens).
      I think that it started to happened after update to Opera 50 (first, stable version). I'm always logged in to my sync account and tabs from different devices are present in Tabs Menu (currently open tabs, recently closed, sync tabs).

      Fresh start: After some time when icon "magically" appears again:

      Picking tabs from different devices from Tabs Menu is (in my case) really inconvenient.
      I would like to know if it's a bug or a feature (I hope it's bug that's really easy to fix)

      Current system info:

      Version: 50.0.2762.67 (PGO), Stable, PL
      System: Windows 10 64-bit

          @alexsvrv Do you have sync enabled on other devices? Do you have opened tabs on one of them at least?

            @leocg Yes, of course, I do. I'm not an idiot. I have exactly the same problem as @szczepanson described.
            I still can access my sync tabs via the Tab menu in the upper right corner where recently closed and currently opened tabs are listed as well. Just the icon on the sidebar is missing most of the time, so I can't access the fullscreen Tabs page.

                @leocg Actually, I can. Thanks! I was looking for a command like this, but couldn't find one.
                However, the icon is still missing even when the page is opened. Here is a screenshot:

                    Yep, same thing here too.
                    Icon missing from the sidebar.
                    Can see some, but not all tabs from my opera mobile, on opera://activity

                      Did you check the sidebar menu and see if it was disabled? I don't sync tabs so mine is always disabled, but even if you do sync tabs you could hide the icon.

                              I got the same issue on my laptop Win 10 x64 several days ago. Seems like it happened after the recent update. So, I don't have Tabs on Sidebar menu, and only can access it via the command opera://activity

                                  I use this: chrome://startpage/activity when that happens. That should bring back the tabs icon. Just keep in mind that android tabs may not show up right away due to sync's horrendous track record, but they will show up.

                                        Have you tried this? link text That should bring up the Tab Page. I was able to access my Android Tabs there. Though sync does tend to take a bit for android tabs to show up.

                                          @slytheringirl opera://activity (and opera://startpage/activity) open right windows with tabs, but still icon don't re-appear.
                                          It's funny, because I totally forgot about this topic because for a while there was not a single response. Yesterday I've got notification about new post here and it looks like there was some feedback. Nice 🙂

                                          Unfortunately this issue is still present, even after over 1 year and I don't know what triggers it. Sometimes Opera opens up and icons is right from the start. Sometimes (more often) Opera opens and icons is missing and later it appears.

                                            I don't see sync tabs icon and I don't see PC connected as device in Opera account sync. Opera Android and PC is connected to this same account.
