Tip #752

Give your synced devices distinct names.

It makes browsing with Vivaldi easier when each instance you sync has a clear name. For example, you’ll find tabs open on other devices faster, and sending a single tab to another device is quicker too. When you start syncing, you can give the synced Vivaldi instance a name during login, but you can also rename the device when Sync is already active.

To rename the device on desktop:

  1. Go to Settings > Sync.
  2. Click the pencil icon next to the current device name.
  3. Type in the new name and press “Enter”.

To rename the device on Android or iOS:

  1. Go to Settings > Sync.
  2. Tap “Edit” next to the current device name.
  3. Type in the new name.
  4. Tap “Confirm”.
Sync settings open in Vivaldi on Android (in the foreground) and desktop. Arrows point at the device name's "Edit" buttons
