The Home button and Panel button are back on Android!
After the release of Vivaldi 6.6 on Android we got to see first-hand how much you care about your browser. You raised your voice and shared your opinion with good reason.
We made a mistake.
You made it clear to us that the removal of the Home and Panel buttons, for those with the address bar at the bottom of your screen, was not something you wanted.
That's why, as of today, both buttons are back.
Our mission is to build a browser that adapts to you, and to do this we rely on feedback from everyone who uses our products.
Since 1999, an RSS Feed has allowed you to get the latest information bundled together from websites you choose.
You’ve received the latest news from your preferred sources, latest content from your favorite blogs, and with our Vivaldi Feed Reader, you can even watch the latest YouTube videos from your subscribed channels instead of having to deal with a ton of other content before getting to yours.
You're being spied on, and the cat in this video will show you how.
We made this video along with the Icelandic Consumer Association because we believe Big Tech's thirst for surveillance-based advertising is pervasive and needs to end.
By popular demand, your Vivaldi browser can now auto-adapt to any website's color palette, whipping up a dark color theme for those websites still living in the light ages.😎
And yes, this includes websites that don't offer their site in dark mode.
You can now force it to go dark by selecting the “Dark” option and enabling Force a Dark theme on all websites.
Just go to Settings > Appearance > Website Appearance and choose between light, dark, or auto.
We're excited to give you more ways to make the browser yours.

👊A fun-sized update to Vivaldi 6.6 that truly packs a punch!
An extra day to the month gave us an extra day to make Vivaldi yours, even more. So let's get right into it:
📧 With growing mailboxes and multiple mail accounts, finding an email can feel like looking for a needle in a haystack. With more search tools in Vivaldi Mail, you will instantly find that one email among thousands.
🌎 Experience faster translations with Vivaldi Translate, our reliable and private translation service that currently supports 108 languages. You’ll also notice improvements in the quality of translation for some key languages.
🧩 Web Panels—web pages that you can add to your side panel—will now work more like a regular tab with extended extension capabilities and page navigation.
Extension developers can now extend the functionality of Vivaldi by adding entire new Panels using the Side Panel extension API.
👋🏼 Say hello to Dark Mode. Love Dark mode but the website doesn’t support it? Vivaldi will now automatically generate a dark theme by adapting any website's color scheme.
These are just some of the new updates and you can read more about what's new in Vivaldi 6.6 in the blog below ⤵️
The chances of you and your colleague using a browser the same way are slim.
🎨 If you're in the Creative department, you spend time looking for inspiration across different design websites, use a note-taking tool to save snippets of information for your next written piece, or regularly access file-sharing platforms to share your designs.
📧 If you're a Manager, you spend a large part of your day dealing with emails, manage your team on different internal or external communication platforms, and navigate between different project management tools and dashboards to stay on top of projects.
But in whichever way you use your browser, almost everything about the Vivaldi browser can be customized and tailored to your needs.
Here are some ways you can customize our browser to make it work and feel like your personal workstation.👇🏻
@aral Yeah, screen reader compatibility is something we need to take a closer look at. :tony_sigh: Seeing the issue you're encountering would be a good start.
🍅 Heard of the Pomodoro technique? It keeps you hyper-focused on the task rather than getting overwhelmed by the weight of it.
The technique was created by Francesco Cirillo in the 1990s. It involves breaking tasks into 25-minute intervals (Pomodoros) separated by short breaks, with a longer break every four intervals.
To use the Pomodoro timer in Vivaldi:
- Left-click on the Clock button to bring up the Clock popup. - Click on the Pomodoro preset. - Click the Start button.
Owned by our employees, we're a small company with BIG dreams.
Take a look at the different ways you can join us on this journey to help Vivaldi grow. Together, let's keep building the browser you deserve. :tony_normal:
