      Im trying to completely switch to opera as I love the overall performance and interface.

      I'm using the latest version of opera on my pc (102.0.4880.56) and Samsung s22ultra (77.3.4095.74759)

      I signed on on PC and all my bookmarks and password show on sync.opera.com

      I sign in on my phone and it shows sync is on but nothing is syncing

      In my phone settings-accounts-opera it shows

      sync off for all

      I have tried erasing everything that is synced on the sync website and clean installs and yet still the same issue

      When I close the opera app and check bookmarks it says sync is paused and to sign in again and once logged in it will repeat the same thing next time it is closed

      I also tried on my tab s9 ultra and have the same results

      Am I missing something?

          OK so as a work around I did the following

          I use my PC on opera and go to opera.com/connect

          I went to my opera app on android mobile and go to the section synchronization and backup in the option menu.

          I go to connect device always with android app

          on PC a click on synchronize your data and it will reveal a QR code

          on android opera app click connect it will give you your mobile's camera. Scan the Qr code and everything synced over,

          I also tested adding a bookmark on the PC and on the phone and both synced to each other.

          not sure why default way didnt work

            So I tried loading Opera Mini on my Old Phone (the one I want the bookmarks from) and logged into the Opera account. It syncs to Opera Browser and shows the default speed dials there.

            I have tried numerous times to connect my Old Phone, which is running Opera for Android to Opera Browser via the method in your last posting to no avail. Even if it does appear to connect, none of the bookmarks on the Old Phone show up in Bookmarks and the Old Phone's Opera for Android itself does not even show up in the list .

            From all of this testing it appears that there is some problem with the Opera for Android on my Old Phone (Moto G Power 2022) and it will not sync even if it is logged into the Opera account or Connected via a QR code. And of course this is the phone and the version that houses all my bookmarks!

              @vmhoffers Yeah sync seems a little odd for opera

                @fidorulz18 the only difference with mine is that when I go back to "sync", the devices list is always empty just for my phone
