Starting today, my Opera GX just suddenly crashed on me without warning when I was browsing. Restarting my iphone and starting Opera GX again resulted in it crashing on start up.
Should I wake for a store update, is there anything I can do? I really want to keep my tabs/history on my IOS, so I hope there's a way to save it.

If Opera GX is crashing on startup, there are several troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve the issue:
Restart your computer: Sometimes, a simple restart can fix temporary issues with software. Restart your computer and then try launching Opera GX again to see if the crashing issue is resolved.
Update Opera GX: Ensure that you have the latest version of Opera GX installed on your computer. Outdated versions may have compatibility issues or bugs that can cause crashes. Visit the official Opera GX website or check for updates within the browser settings to update to the latest version.
Disable extensions: Extensions can sometimes conflict with Opera GX and cause crashes. Temporarily disable all extensions and then launch Opera GX to see if it starts without crashing. If it does, you can enable the extensions one by one to identify the problematic one. Consider removing or updating the problematic extension.
Clear cache and browsing data: Corrupted or overloaded cache and browsing data can lead to stability issues. Clear the cache and browsing data in Opera GX by going to the settings menu, selecting "Clear browsing data," and choosing the appropriate options to clear cache, cookies, and other browsing data. Restart Opera GX and check if the crashing issue is resolved.
Reset Opera GX settings: Resetting Opera GX to its default settings can help resolve issues caused by misconfigured settings. Go to the settings menu, select "Advanced," and choose "Reset settings." This will reset all settings to their default values. Note that this action will remove your personalized settings, so make sure to back up any important data beforehand.

I just downloaded it for the first time myself and it's crashing on start up. I can't even do any kind of troubleshooting because it flat out won't let me.
I've checked all over the internet for the various file manager "fixes" and none work.
It's not tripping any antivirus. It's got permission to run on my system.
It's obviously not a Windows 10 issue. It's not an update issue. I have a gaming rig that can easily handle a web browser of all things.
I've read all over the internet (the official reddit forum, twitter, even some lost forums on this forum site that this has been an issue since day 1 of Opera Gx's releases and that's absolutely sad. The people behind this browser should be ashamed and embarrassed. Not to mention, they actually acknowledged this very issue popping back up again not that long ago on Twitter.

@zeroxmith After about two years of using gx this is happening to me as well, it just opens and closes around 3 or 4 times then closes completely, its super frustrating cause its always worked until now and now all the sudden gx is completely unusable
