Hi. When in VPN mode can`t acess https://ya.ru
What should I do?

Hello. How can I add Skype to the left panel for quick access? Can't find it in the list of suggested messengers.

Hello. When I click on Telegram icon on side panel it opens kinda mobile app fixed window at left side of the screen. I can change width, but can't change position.

I am asking to implement aproach Yandex Borwser did. They also have panel at left side and same functionality. But in Yandex Btowser you can unpin window, turn it in to free floating web app.

Please, do the same. Add an option to unpin and move it.

Bump

Aria is great! But font is horrible. Hard to read. Eyes hurt.
Please, change the font, or make option to change it in settings.
I read in Russian.

Hello. I love FEEDLY App. It is cool RSS reader, I just can`t live without it. I group favorite websites by topic (Politics, Hi-Tech, etc), and can switch between them, or read all together in one feed.

Why not to include same functionality in Opera touch? (Desktop version already has RSS Feed, but it also needs to be improved). Especially for iPad. When I open Opera on iPad, it opens on empty page. Why not to fill it with news blocks? But not just some random suggested "news", but MY personal news. Hand-selected RSS channels by myself, as a user. Sort them in lists\folders\collections (whatever) at right side.

Opera Touch = WebBrowser + modern RSS reader app.

Sounds cool.

Hello. I use custom RSS feed on left pannel. I set all websites I need here. I don`t need standart Opera News feed on Start pannel (suggested news). But I like to read news from Start pannel, though. I just want to replace standart News on Start pannel with my custom RSS feed from left pannel. Another words - I want acess my RSS feed not only from left pannel, but, also, from Speed-dial too.

P.S. I asking for option in settings menu to switch between "suggested News" and "RSS Feed" to display at Stat Page.

Hello. Opera is my main browser on Windows. I have many bookrarks in different categories (Job, hobby, education, games, etc) on PC. I need acess to them anythere on any device (from my Androir phone, iPad).

I realy enjoy Opera Touch design and feel. But it has one HUGE disadvantage. It doesnt provide acees to my Desktop bookmarks, and doesnt have any bookmarks at all!

Imagine situation: I enjoy beautifull weekend and, suddenly, my BOSS phones me and asking for some urgency job information. I need to open specific bookmark, but only device I have - Android phone with Operat Touch on it. Someone can loose job... Bookmarks are very important!

With all respect, I dont see huge problem to simply put bookmark icon inside Menu (under "O" logo in bottom right color), right to Recent history. Just like in standart Opera for Android browser.

P.S. Please, do not suggest me to use standart Opera for android. I don`t like it. I like "Touch" version. I just want to add such things as Bookmarks, Reading mode and Reading list to "Touch" version.

@leocg "Opera" is not only company name, but, also, browser (product) name. If browser on PC and browser on Andropid share same name, that means - it is one product on different platforms. That means - it must have same "guts": bookmarks, and other sync features. If not: those are different products, and should have different names. Only one thing in common now - is "My Flow". Not big deal, honestly.

P.S. no offence, I writing it with all respect to Opera developers team. I like what they are doing, and wish it become even better.

P.P.S. English is not my native launguage

@leocg What is the point then?

I like Touch more than standart Opera for Android (because of how bottom pannel is implemented), and standart Opera for Android have big issues with bookmarks aswell.
For iOS (I use iPad) only Opra Touch is avalible.

Another words, I am not able to use bookmarks from my PC on any other mobile device.

Why those mobile browsers called "Opera" then?

Opera Touch currently has three buttons on bottom pannel: Tabs, "+", Menu.
I suggest to add "Share" button also. It is very handy to have it at the bottom, because I use it constantly. So I whish it would be more accesible to one thinger touch (Opera Touch right?). It is not convinient to click on top adress bar, then click on "share".

"Send to my Flow" could be moved on share place instead. You can place reading mode icon on that place (if you ever add reading mode to Opera touch).

Opera is my main Desktop browser.
I want to have acess to ALL my bookmarks from any device (phone/desktop).
I like Opera touch, but it does not allow acess to bookmarks! No folders, no devices connected. Why is that? Will it be fixed?

I don`t need this button (as many other users, I assume), so give us an option to hide it, or move it to side pannel, and show it only if pannel is avalible. It consumes pressures screen space which can be used to show more tabs. More clean look without it

Would be great to have bookmarks and "read later list" as stand alone app.
Like Raindrop.io or Pocket. Avalible for all platforms. Sharing bookmarks collections, etc

For example: I need my bookmarks on iPad, but Opera browser is not avalible for iPad. So I could install jut that app.

Hi. My suggestion: in bookmark list, if you click on folder via left mb, you have an option: "refresh thumbnails in this folder". I imported all my bookmarks from another browser, but Opera doesn`t show thumbnails for them. Especially it is important for bookmarks manager in BABE, where I can sort tham as cards. I can fix it by manually open each bookmark and hit heart icon. But I have too many bookmarks! It is not an option to do this manually. This would be perfect solution.

@leocg said in Correct thumbnails on express-pannel and bookmarks:

@alxgvr If you use the heart icon in the address bar to bookmark the page, you will get the page logo in many pages.

It works very bad. It unable to find Google Keep logo, Pocket logo, Google Photos logo, Mail.ru, etc.
Yandex Browser did it correctly. Also, Opera cards on express pannel look ugly, compared to YB where they look almoust like real app icons.

P.S. Yes, I did mouse scrolling across suggested thumbnails for each card.

Hi. I have favorite sites cards on express pannel. Some of them are: Gmail, Google Keep, Youtube. But thumbnails are not show well known logos of those services. They just show website adress on color background. So there is no visual intuitive distinction between different sites on red or blue (etc.) background. For example: Gmail card: is blue card with white "mail.google.com" text on it. Same for Google keep (white "keep.google.com" on blue background). They are indentical! Instead, I want signature Gmail logo icon on white background, and yellow Google Keep icon (bulb). I want to see Youtube logo instead of just "youtube.com" on red background. Is it possible?

@leocg said in drop-down express panel when click on adress bar:

@alxgvr Opera had it until not very long ago and now it has BABE, what I think is better because it givers the user more options.

Ок, I googled, and found out how to enable it (opera://flags/#better-address-bar)
Much better!

But

I want to have cards from express bar in BABE, not suggested (recently visited). That is the point. I will always know which cards are there, and position of each individual card (so I can reach them with closed eyes, because I set them manually). This will boost productivity. So, I wish dev`s to give option to customize BABE with express-panel cards instead of suggestions.

Why did they remove it? What is BABE?

Hello! My previous browser was Yandex Browser. And there is one very cool feature. Because this feature YB was my favorite for years. But now I switch to Opera (which I like more in general), but I really miss that feature. That feature is: when you click on adress bar: drop-down express pannel appears as a tab. When you start typing search request, it just mutate in search drop-down tab, as it is now.

Drop-down express panel is very handy! You don't have to open new tab to reach you pinned favorite websites. It appears on same tab you work at the top. So you still have all your content on current opened tab avalible. If you change your mind (close that express bar), you will still stay on your current tab? and just continue to work. You don't need to switch back to that tab as it is now. Less mouse clicks, less distraction, more productivity! Just more intuitive.

P.S. Existing express pannel wil stay at its place (my suggestion not for replacing existing pannel, but to add new way of interracting).
