Opera for Android 51 - built-in VPN

@stevecripe57 Well I've been using the new release Opera with the VPN and whatever else they did to it for a couple of weeks now. I can say that I definitely liked the previous version better. Since I downloaded the new release, Opera has a terrible time connecting to websites. The browser will connect halfway and then just sit there. And sometimes after 5 minutes it will finally connect, other times it will never finish connecting. And this is without the VPN on. I've also tried it with the VPN on, and it's the same situation. Opera just has problems connecting to common websites. And my wife can be sitting right next to me using the same model phone, but she uses Firefox browser and has no problem connecting to the same website I'm still waiting to connect to. If this keeps up, I'll be switching to a different browser!

Sorry for the much delayed reply, but we had a VPN problem recently. Do you still have problem connecting to our VPN?

Sorry about the trouble. Are you using our data savings mode? Does your wife using the same phone network operator? We'd like to help you to resolve the problem.

@miyukiwork No, since it updated again it is slightly better at connecting both in the regular mode and then using the VPN mode. Seems to be connecting to websites a little quicker and more consistently now. So I'll keep working with it and keep you posted.

@uihoh0 Open your Opera browser. At the bottom of the page is the bright red "O". Click on the O and then click on settings. You will see the VPN setting which you can toggle on or off. That's it! Note that when you turn the VPN on, you will see the data switch turn itself off. You can't have the VPN on and the data setting on at the same time. When you turn the VPN off, just turn the data saving setting back on if it doesn't come back on by itself.

Besides how @stevecripe57 describes, you can also open a new private tab to find the VPN settings.

Can you open a new private tab to see if the VPN settings are there?

@uihoh0 Your VPN setting should be right under Data settings, but it's not there in your version. Hmmm.... I wonder if maybe uninstalling your current Opera, rebooting your Android device, then re-installing the latest version of Opera might help? The version you have of Opera is definitely missing the VPN setting.

@stevecripe57 Thx for ur suggestion. I tried, however, the vpn-settings-button still didn't show up. I installed the Opera through Play Store. And the reviews show that I'm not the only one who meet this bug(OR the button would hide under some situations?).

@uihoh0 That's frustrating because you have the correct version of Opera, or at least the same version as I'm using in my Android device. I would say to notify Opera and let them know everything you've done and the version you are using. I am out of ideas, I'm afraid at this point. Good luck... I hope you get it working at some point.
