We are publishing our Snapshot stream for Vivaldi on iOS browser via TestFlight.
To make it easier and lower the risk for you to test our cutting edge builds, Vivaldi Snapshot is a separate application that will be installed alongside the Final and have its own set of preferences and settings.
Differences to Beta/Final
The purpose of these snapshots is to allow our fans a chance to preview upcoming changes, and to help us ensure the quality of our latest fixes and improvements, before we add them to Final. If you would prefer something that was already widely tested, stick with the main Vivaldi iOS package.
When testing a Snapshot, it is a good idea to review the changelog (below). Try out the changes and let us know your thoughts in the comments section or report it directly to our bug tracking system. When commenting or reporting a bug, remember that it is helpful to mention the version you were testing with.
New
- [Search] Add settings for search engine nickname (VIB-851)
This new setting allows you to disable Search Engine Nicknames, helping to prevent accidental search engine switches when your search terms often start with single letters that match the nicknames.
Known issue
- A dialogue related to customization occasionally appears when you tap the share icon.
