      @rubtrianglerub What part is working? Can you send a URL from your device to your desktop browser?
      I still get the same issue - I try to send a URL from my device via My Flow (Send to Flow). It then asks me to Connect device. This takes me to the QR Scanner, so I set this my on my desktop using the My Flow sidebar link.
      When these connect, my phone asks for my fingerprint and then gives me a six digit code, which I have never been able to use. At the same time, my desktop takes me to my logged in page where I can Synchronize your data or Manage your subscriptions, neither relevant here.
      Very frustrating as I can't even work out what it is meant to be doing.
      I'm no longer using Opera as my main browser as I don't think it is built for full time use.

        @rubtrianglerub Unfortunately this didn't fix the problem for me.

          Got my Opera on Android automatically updated to 81.5.4292.78980 and tried again, this time after confirming that I'm logged in on both machines and that sync is on. Clicking the flow button in Opera for Windows (not updated since last post) prompts me to connect the phone although I'm already logged in and synced on both machines. On the phone, I was prompted again to follow the instructions on the other device (Windows) with the unchanged confirmation code shown.. This time, on Windows, I'm not getting the spinning wheel but a message "Congratulations! You're now logged in. What would you like to do?". There are two buttons; "Synchronize" and "Manage your subscriptions". I clicked the former but nothing happened. After a while got "failed to connect" on the phone. It also turned out that, without notice, sync had been switched off and I had been logged out. Looks like a problem on the Windows version since I was not logged out on the Android version.

            Eventually, it works for me now. I didn't do anything additional, just keeping my Android and PC browsers updated and now Flow works fine for 3 deviced.

              I turned off two-factor authentication and now I can see the flow.

                    @denjohan Same - this is what happens to me, though I think I get different confirmation codes each time.

                        @denjohan I did try this a week or so ago and it didn't help. Maybe I need to try this again.
                        Have you tried turning 2FA on again? (I remember having this problem with a Reddit app ages ago - turn off 2FA, log in on the app then turn it back on again)

                          @erehwon2 It works when you enter the full URL, https and all, for example example.com https://example.com.

                            @rubtrianglerub Do you mean the URL for Send to Flow? When I do it from my phone, I go to a web page and then select Send to Flow from the menu. I don't copy/type a URL at any point. When do you enter in a URL? Maybe I can copy your method.

                            Just tried again to connect my phone to My Flow and still getting the same issues?

                              Today I was able to connect my phone with Flow.
                              Maybe it's because of version [...] .68...

                                @mathias87 I just got it to work on my laptop. Maybe they listened after all.

                                    @mxmatt38 Make sure both devices are compatible with the application or service you're using.
                                    Check if there are any specific requirements for the connection, such as both devices being on the same network or having certain permissions enabled.

                                      @joshsiddle8 Connecting my phone to Flow was successful by going to www.opera.com/connect.
                                      The same code like shown on my phone was shown on my computer and it worked.

                                          @elias-155 On Windows 10 I'm on 109.0.5097.68. On Android I'm on 81.6.4292.79147 and these are the latest versions. And...

                                          It's worked!!!! 🎉 🎆 🎈

                                          The pin code came up on my phone and my desktop browser showed that code as well. The first time it ever has. All is well (hopefully)

                                          I hope it's now working for everyone.
