@lucasbs said in Disable auto zoom:

I believe the title is clear enough

I don't get any zooming when I tap a text field on sites l use, so the issue is website, device or Opera version specific. To get meaningfull help you need to give those details.

Best to mention that it happens mostly when opening a PC version site, or any site that contains typing fields and the field is far/small.

Example:
https://duckduckgo.com

As requested:
Opera 57.2.2830.52651
Android 8.0

Opera 59 has an unfixed bug.

There's no Home button Assist function, present on previous Operas

@lucasbs I'm talking about the problem being discussed in this topic. Does it happen in Opera 59?

Tested now: Still occurs

It's not a bug. It's a (dumb) design

I'm requesting a way to disable a dumb feature here

Maybe it has always helped you and it got unnoticed

Let me show:

1-Open my sample page
https://duckduckgo.com/

2- In the 3 dot button, switch to "Computer site" (that may vary between languages)

3- Zoom out (pinch out)

4- Tap the typing field.

In mine, it always zooms in.

@lucasbs Here the zoom remained the same.
