On desktop, Ctrl+F / ⌘ F is a well known Keyboard Shortcut for searching through the open web page. On mobile devices, where the screens fit even less content in the visible area, being able to just search for a keyword is even more useful.
To search in Vivaldi on Android:
Search results will start showing as you type. Use the arrows in the top right corner to move to the ˄ previous and ˅ next results. Tap on the X, when you’re done with your search.
Speed Dials are Bookmarks that are displayed on your browser’s Start Page. You can choose how they’re displayed.
To change the look on Android:
You can drag tabs one by one over each other or over existing Tab Stacks to group tabs, but if you want to group many tabs at once, there’s a better option.
To group tabs:
Tab Stacks in Vivaldi are an excellent way to group related tabs together. And like on desktop, you have a couple of display options for Tab Stacks also on Vivaldi for Android.
For example, you can choose whether you want to make use of the Two-Level Tab Bar, where you have a Tab Bar just like on desktop and tabs in a stack will be displayed on the second level. See the phone on the right side on the screenshot below. In addition, you can choose whether the Tab Bar (together with the Address Bar) is located at the top or bottom of the screen. Toggle the setting in Settings > Appearance > Address Bar at Bottom, to see which you prefer.
Alternatively, if you want to keep the valuable screen real estate for web content, you can disable the Tab Bar from Settings > Tabs > Show Tab Bar. Then, while you have a stacked tab open, you’ll see all tabs in the same Tab Stack on a menu at the bottom of the screen. See the phone on the left side on the screenshot below.
Unless you’ve disabled it from Settings, Vivaldi offers to save your login passwords in the browser. Your password is also saved when you use Vivaldi’s Sync, Mail and Calendar features.

Usually, in Vivaldi for Android when you’re opening a link that you have an app for, the link will try to open in the app. If you’d prefer to open links in the browser, you can enable a setting for it. To do that:
Then, when you come across, for example, a YouTube link, the video will open in Vivaldi instead of triggering the YouTube app to open.
When you scroll down on a page in Vivaldi’s Android app, the Tab Bar, Address Bar and bottom toolbar will be hidden automatically to free up screen real estate on the mobile devices’ smaller screen. When you scroll up, the toolbars will be displayed again.
If you’d rather keep the toolbars visible at all times:
Whether the text on the phone screen is too small for you to read or the opposite, your eyesight is great and you want to fit more text on the screen, Vivaldi for Android has a text scaling setting for you to make use of.
To change zoom level for texts on Vivaldi for Android:
You can also enable Force enable zoom for instances, where the web page tries to prevent text scaling.
Selecting text on a web page and creating a note from it is an excellent feature in Vivaldi, but what if you want to add new lines from a web page to a note you have made in the past? You could copy the text, find the note in the Notes Panel and paste it there, but there’s a better way to do it on Vivaldi for Android:
Vivaldia is a real 80s style arcade game built into the Vivaldi Browser. There for you whenever you want to take a break and enjoy a quick gaming session.
The game is available both on Vivaldi on desktop and Android and can be played even when you’re not connected to the internet.
To play the game, enter vivaldi://game
in the browser’s Address Field. Press Space (on desktop) or tap the screen (on Android) to start the game.
For more detailed instructions about the gameplay, check the Help pages about Vivaldia on desktop and Vivaldia on Android.
Switching content into dark mode on big and small screens alike has become more and more popular and for a good reason. Dark mode is less straining on the eyes and improves readability of texts among other benefits.
To switch web pages into dark mode:
In case you need to “turn the lights on” for the current page, disable Dark Theme from the Vivaldi menu.
Preview page feature comes in handy if you want to quickly check the contents of a page, but don’t want to navigate away from your current page or open the link in a new tab.
To preview a page:
When you want to open the page, tap on the Open in New Tab button in the top right corner of the preview window.
To close the preview, either tap the Close button or swipe down on the preview.
