Versie 7.7 van de webbrowser Vivaldi is uitgekomen. Vivaldi is een webbrowser die wordt ontwikkeld door voormalige werknemers van Opera. Hij richt zich voornamelijk op powerusers en gebruikers van Opera vóór de overstap op Chromium, hoewel ook deze browser daarop is gebaseerd. Vivaldi heeft uitgebreide mogelijkheden, zoals mousegestures, stapelen van tabbladen, uitgebreide keyboardshortcuts en het maken van aantekeningen op webpagina's. De browser is gratis en wordt voor Windows, Linux, macOS en Android ontwikkeld, en tegenwoordig ook voor iOS. Hieronder is te vinden wat er in deze uitgave allemaal veranderd is.
All your tabs, structured, anywhere you need themYou’re working on your home desktop and you need that one article you had open on your work machine this morning. Or you remember seeing something interesting in a tab yesterday, but you were on a different computer. These small moments of friction add up, and they shouldn’t be hard to solve.
Vivaldi 7.7 makes accessing tabs from your other desktop devices effortless. Finding and opening a single tab from another desktop is now straightforward. Open the Windows Panel or click the Tab Button, and you’ll see exactly what’s open on your other synced machines. When you open synced content, you’re not just getting a flat list of individual tabs. Need that whole Workspace you built this morning? Want all those research tabs you organized into a Tab Stack? You can bring over entire windows with their complete structure intact. Stacks stay stacked, Workspace organization is preserved, and the relationships between your tabs remain exactly as you arranged them. Just be aware that opening large window structures with many tabs can be resource-intensive, so plan accordingly if you’re pulling over hundreds of tabs at once.
This is especially powerful when you move between setups, for example office and home setups, or when you move between different machines throughout your day. You don’t have to reconstruct your tab organization from scratch, or fish through sync history trying to remember which tabs went together. Your browsing context, the way you’ve structured your work, is treated as first-class data. Open it once, and you’re back to exactly where you were, with all your organizational work preserved.
Your Start Page, your wayWe’ve reimagined how you interact with your Start Page. Widgets and Speed Dials now coexist beautifully in a unified Start Page experience. Your favorite sites sit alongside real-time information from widgets, creating a personal dashboard that’s uniquely yours. Weather forecasts, RSS feeds, mail previews, and your most-visited sites all share the same space, accessible with a single glance. The flexibility extends to how you organize your spaces. You are free to personalize as many Speed Dial groups as YOU deem necessary. Add widgets, drag them around, resize them, mix them with Speed Dial folders, the Start Page becomes whatever you need it to be.
Privacy you can seeWe’ve refreshed the Privacy Dashboard with a new, cleaner design that makes it easier to understand exactly what Vivaldi is doing to protect you. The updated Privacy Dashboard gives you clear visibility into blocked trackers, ads, and the time you’ve saved by not loading intrusive content. This gives you a better understanding of the impact of browsing with protection enabled. The new Dashboard also provides better insight into per-site blocking status, making it easier to manage exceptions when a site needs certain content to function properly. Privacy with transparency, because your data and your time both matter.
Take control of performanceYour system resources are valuable, and Vivaldi 7.7 gives you more control over how the browser uses them. We’ve added a new Performance section to Settings, complete with Memory Saver options. Now you can decide how aggressively Vivaldi manages memory for inactive tabs. Whether you’re someone who keeps dozens of tabs open or you prefer a lighter footprint, these settings let you balance performance with your browsing habits.
Memory Saver helps free up resources by putting inactive tabs into a low-power state. The tabs stay exactly where you left them, but they consume less memory until you need them again. You can configure which tabs are exempt; pinned tabs, for instance, or tabs you want to keep actively loaded, giving you fine-grained control over your browser’s resource usage. This is especially useful if you’re working on a machine with limited RAM, or if you just want your browser to run as efficiently as possible. The settings are straightforward and easy to adjust, so you can find the balance that works for you.
Mail panel refinementsThe Mail Panel has also received some UI polish. We’ve made visual refinements to improve readability and usability, making it easier to work with your email directly in the browser. Small improvements that make daily use just a bit smoother. Geir, our lead mail developer puts it this way: “It is a lot nicer, a lot clearer and looks much more organized”. Can’t argue with that!
A cleaner About PageSometimes even the small things deserve attention. The About Page has been completely redesigned with a fresh, modern look and improved update handling. The new About Page is cleaner and more informative. It shows your current version, lets you check for updates with better status messaging, and provides quick access to essential information like your profile path. We’ve added convenient buttons to copy important details and open your profile folder directly. It’s a small touch, but it’s these kind of refinements that add up to a better overall experience. When you need information about your browser, it’s right there, presented clearly.
