Vivaldi Stable 6.5.3206.39

We are ringing in the Holidays with a powerful version of Vivaldi wrapped up with new features and improvements you’ll love.

In our latest version, we are introducing the Sessions Panel, a new panel on the sidebar for managing saved sessions – your collections of organized tabs. With the Sessions Panel, you can view, reopen, and even edit your Sessions.

Our Sync (encrypted) functionality now makes your complete browsing history available on all your devices.

From this update onwards, you can find and open your synced tabs from the Address Field or Windows Panel on your current device.

Furthermore, you no longer need to manually move and organize tabs into the desired Workspace. The new Workspace Rules automatically moves tabs to a predefined Workspace based on your easy-to-configure rulesets.

Additionally, there’s a new option to the built-in Notes that helps you add more text to an existing note.

Vivaldi celebrates the Holidays with a feature-packed update

Vivaldi gifts its users the Sessions Panel, Synced Open Tabs, Full History Sync, Workspace Rules & improved Notes. Download the browser on desktops & notebooks.
