Android 10:
Settings -> Apps and notifications -> Advanced -> Default apps -> Assist appYesterday, I could install Opera there as an assistant.
Longpress on Android Home button opens Opera new tab with focus on search bar. From every screen of smartphone.
Today, this great feature is gone.Is it about policy with Google? It's very useful and important thing.

You're right. I have been waiting for an update to android 10, because on android 9 this function has disappeared for a very long time. -

Where else can I ask this question?
Many of those here use Opera as the most important application on their phone instead of Google. Is it really not so important for developers?

Most likely. Thank you all for sharing your experience! It seems, it has become clearer that the question is difficult and far from being resolved. -

Any update on this ?
Is there a developer working on it !?
Is there even a developer seeing this forum ?Opera 58.2 is out, but I'm forced to use 57.2 because of this.

@lexusxp You may download older versions of Opera over the internet. There are infinite sites.
Versions above 57.2 don't have the Assist function. But maybe it's my phone.
Make sure you backup the browser data (bookmarks, history, open tabs), either through opera's account, or by Titantium Backup (root)

Did opera at least acknowledge the existence of this bug !?
