About this app

Your ultimate, no-BS browser – faster, safer, and packed with tools the others wish they had. Free VPN, ad-blocking, tracker-blocking, and total customization, all in one package. Say goodbye to basic and hello to a browser that actually does more than load pages.

THE FULL FEATURE LINEUP:
🛡️ Free VPN – Because your privacy shouldn’t come with a price tag.
⛔ Enhanced Ad Blocker – Ads? Nope. uBlock Origin-powered, so it actually works.
👀 Tracker Blocker – Stops others from selling your browsing habits.
🎨 Total Customization – Dark Mode, wallpapers, themes—make it your browser.
🌍 Sync Across Devices – Keep your tabs, bookmarks, and settings wherever you go.

🚫 BLOCK ADS. TAKE BACK CONTROL.
Tired of the internet looking like Times Square? Our ad blocker does more than slap a bandaid on the problem—it deletes ads, trackers, and all the other garbage slowing you down.

🛡️ BROWSE PRIVATELY, ANYWHERE.
Free VPN = total privacy with just one tap. No sign-ups, no weird data collection, no "7-day free trials" that suddenly charge you $9.99. It just works.

🔒 LOCK DOWN EVERY DEVICE.
Need protection beyond Opera? VPN Pro covers everything—your apps, your entire phone, even your grandma’s tablet (if you’re feeling generous). One subscription, six devices.

📉 DATA SAVINGS THAT ACTUALLY SAVE DATA.
Why load a 10MB webpage when we can slim it down for you? Opera compresses pages, so you get the speed without the data drain.

🎨 YOUR BROWSER, YOUR RULES.
Customize everything—wallpapers, icons, layouts. Dark Mode? Of course. Opera is your browser, not just another cookie-cutter app.

I have used Opera for a long time now, and I truly believe that it's a fantastic browser to use as your main one. You might still need to use others occasionally, because it's not considered a standard browser so some stuff or websites may not work, but its fr really good, at least give it a try, instead of just using your device's default browser that slurps up your data and sells it to whoever, because it's not like you can just refuse chrome, or edge, terms of service.Nowyurgivenotheroption!

Been using the browser for a year. Recently encountering an issue where sites as a whole will NOT load at all when VPN is on and says its "down" for days. Doenst matter if I have wifi or not. Ive turned off ad blockers and it still happens. cleared data. cleared cashe. updated and redownloaded browser. same issue. what's the point of a private browser if I cant use the features.

I like the built in ad-blocker, which works about 75-85% of the time. Some websites know you're using an ad blocker and they ask you to allow ads on their site (optional, but encouraged.) I also like the built‐in AI, tab management, and easy cross device syncing. Minus a star because some pages, often pages that have forms to fill out, or many mixed media files do not load at all, showing just a blank page, no error messages or warnings. A work around to view the page: share it to Chrome. 🤔🤷
