Did you know that you can open access menus on Android by long pressing on the app’s icon? Many of you probably did, but if you didn’t… You’re welcome! 😄
In Vivaldi’s access menu, in addition to general app controls, you can access a few useful Vivaldi specific options.

Normally, forgetting a login password is no big deal. You can just reset it. But what if you no longer have access to the account’s recovery email and the all important email with a link to set a new password can’t reach you?
