Snapshot 1.4.589.2 – Vivaldi 1.4RC 1

As the week ends, we are getting closer to another stable release 1.4. Our focus towards 1.4 is fixing regressions, so when reporting issues below, please focus on any regressions since the previous stable 1.3. With this snapshot we also added two new features for your themes and closed tabs.

 

Schedule your theme

New in Vivaldi 1.4 RC1 is the ability to schedule themes. You find it in Settings, under Themes. Once you’ve enabled it, select a time and a theme, Vivaldi handles the rest. A timeline visualization helps explain when the changes will take place.

Theme scheduling setting 1

Theme Scheduling can be useful for many different things, such as automatically switching to a darker UI at night.

As with most things at Vivaldi — we did not stop there. You can schedule as many theme changes as you want. So you can have the theme change when you’re supposed to leave work, or when it’s time for bed.

Want to retrieve closed tab in one click?

Use middle-click of your mouse on the Trash icon and your last closed tab will be opened again!

Please let us know if you see any regression between 1.3 and the latest snapshot. If you want to discuss new features or long standing issues to be addressed after 1.4, please use our forums.
