We have now begun publishing our Snapshot stream for the Vivaldi iOS browser.
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.
Here are some of the changes that have been made:
- Add translation feature (VIB-437)
Introducing one of the most requested features – Vivaldi Translate. Now you can translate web pages and individual sentences directly within the browser. To translate an entire page, tap the Vivaldi Menu > Translate. For sentence translation, highlight the desired texts and tap ‘Vivaldi Translate’ in the context menu. - Enable Top Sites if ‘Reopen with’ setting is set to Top Site (VIB-966)
We have improved ‘Reopen with’ setting. Now it enables Top Sites in the start page when choosing ‘Top Sites’.
