Hi 
Standard bookmark support will arrive very soon on Opera for iOS.
It will include a universal 'star' function from menu that allows you to add a favorite/bookmark to either the Speed Dial or the Bookmark section.
You will be able to add, edit and move and will be able to create your own bookmark folder structure and organize your favorites.
The bookmark feature needs to be in place in order for us to start working on sync which will be the next step.
Just for clarification:
There is currently no sync support on Opera for iOS as present on desktop and android browsers. Signing in to the Opera account website will not sync the browser, just give access to the account via webpage. There is no special native app to webpage integration.
Note: The only syncing available is via the Flow feature that syncs Flow messages and tabs on connected devices.
Why no sync on iOS:
Its an old legacy issue, other platforms are based on the chromium open source and gets sync as part of the package (with a lot of actual coding on top), on iOS this needs to be implemented from scratch to play with the other platforms. Its not a trivial task, but will take months to implement.
When can we expect it:
We intend to start working on the account/sync task the next few weeks and after that it will take quite some time of development and testing before we can launch. A lot of testing. Lets hope for a christmas present.
We are happy to announce we are starting to rollout a new beta version of Opera for iOS with an overhauled user interface.

Hi
I am sorry for the inconvenience.
We can indeed confirm that the Tab UI started to open at top position, its a bug/regression and we will work on a fix asap. The tabUI should focus on the tab you are currently on.
Since we need to both fix and test it before release i expect that the update will be early next week.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Best regards,
Opera
Thank you for reporting this!
Its a known issue and we have a fix ready that is about to be released. However, the update is currently stuck in Appstore app review, so it got delayed. Once we have sorted out the issues it will be available.
The bottom search layout is only available on phone devices. Given the form factor and the heft of such device its hard to hold with one hand and navigate it from the bottom. We will look at iPad optimizations at a later date, for the next few releases we are keeping things as is.
We have disabled the recent tabs from showing on startpage, we will address that use case differently from before, most likely by adding one shortcut on startpage that gives access to all recent tabs from desktop, two steps but more choice.
You can still access recent tabs from the Tab UI
If you swipe sideways (to the right) the rest of your speed dials will be available, the Speed dials are now paginated, horizontally.
So from a UX perspective, some speed dials may not be visible directly, depending on the screen size, maybe, 1 or 2 rows would have been shown, but otherwise a user would need to scroll downwards.
With the new startpage design, the scroll is changed to horizontal instead. Almost the same.
The reason for the change is that we want to de-clutter the startpage, while still being able to show limited product info, news etc at a first glance without being too distracting.

Speed Dials are paginated and can be scrolled horizontally.
There are page controls (dots) below the speed dials and they work the same as on ios home pages.
You can swipe on the speed dial (area) or tap and drag on the page control to fast-scroll between SD pages.
We will look into fitting more speed dials on the same page, and other improvements, but it will remain horizontal scrolling.
@pe73 potentially, but it takes more space
How about add folder support? Would that improve your user flow?
Its understandable, we need to show users how to do it, its on the to do list

@pe73
Duly noted, problem is time and resources, but we do check.
But we could/should interact more.
We appreciate the feedback nevertheless 
Yes thanks!
We just managed to get the update approved and released this morning (CET).
Thanks again for reporting
