Opera Connect

Hi,
I run Opera for Windows on my laptop, and Opera for Android on my Samsung S20+. I'm trying to use Opera Connect to sync the two. The Android Opera says to open Opera on my other device and go to opera.com/connect. But when I do that on my laptop, it keeps taking me to a page that says I need to download the latest version of Opera. Mins says it's 70.0.3728.181
Can anyone help me with this, please? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. OK, Now I see that my problem is that I keep downloading the update for 71, but it doesn't install on my laptop. It goes through the download and install process, but doesn't install the update. Do you know why that might be? Thanks again.

@ami-go How are you trying to connect?
If you are using your user name and password, try using the QR code.
