on Android, cannot tap neither "allow" or "deny" on permission popup for geolocation, but I can tap the "remember choice" button.

This happens only when there are permission requests popup, not on other pop ups.

Very strange.

Updated today to the new version and it's the same problem.

Solution?

Defeated by landscape mode. Don't worry all, it's a chrome issue, check out this google help forum listing: same thing going on there. https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/14464568?hl=en

That has to be the most draconian approach to security that I've seen in a long time. So, Opera, I now have to go into advanced app settings and turn off all the apps (including Norton360!) That use overlay features, Just so I can tell BestBuy where I live so I can find the closest deals??

You can and should do better, Opera. Look! All you have to do is go into landscape mode to defeat your "feature". Seriously, this is a pain in the keister I don't need.

Fix it. Don't be lame. Opera is better than that.

Not sure if you works on other phones.

But why I still can tap on other pop ups alerts, likes this?

As mentioned in the toast message that the overlay app cause partially obstruction. We are blocking the clock only for "Allow" and "Deny" buttons as they are sensitive from security point of view.

I can`t tap 'allow' or "deny" too. It lasts for many months and google chrome has this problem too.

Please make sure you do not have any other app. (f. ex. facebook messenger bubble)
