Your browser should be as unique as you are. The new version of Vivaldi lets you express your personality with a Start Page that is truly yours.

Personalize your Start Page with Custom Wallpapers

We believe whether you are surfing the web for work or play, your browser should tell your story. And it was about time to give your Start Page that you can call your own. 

Now, you can easily transform your Start Page into a visual representation of your interests, memories, and style. Add your personal touch to the browser background with any image from your photo gallery as wallpaper. Your Start Page is a new place for your breathtaking landscape photos, cherished family photos, or motivational quotes.

You can also choose from our selection of preloaded wallpapers. Personalize your Start Page from the Settings > Start Page Wallpaper by adding any image with a tap on the plus button.
