Vivaldi 7.4 for Android: Turning “just browsing” into something brilliant

Vivaldi 7.4 for Android is a powerful refinement of your everyday browser experience. With every detail designed to give you more clarity, more control, and more comfort, this release brings the kind of meaningful improvements that turn “just browsing” into something brilliant.

OSLO, May 22nd.

We’ve added smart new options, refined your browsing experience, and given your tabs a little visual upgrade, all to keep Vivaldi fast, personal, and a joy to use.

Here is what’s new in Vivaldi 7.4 for Android

Floating Tabs: A fresh look, inspired by Desktop

Tabs now float! Not literally, but visually. Inspired by our desktop version, the new floating tabs design gives your tab bar a more modern and elegant feel, making it easier to distinguish open tabs and giving Vivaldi a sleeker, cleaner look.

Reader View, now just a tap away

Web articles are great, until they’re buried under banners, pop-ups, and auto-playing videos. Reader View cuts through the noise, giving you a clean, easy-to-read layout that focuses only on the text and images that matter.

Now, with the Reader View button available as a toolbar shortcut, it’s always within reach. Whether you’re catching up on news during your commute, reading a blog post in bed, or diving into a long-form article with your morning coffee, a distraction-free experience is just one tap away.

Search smarter. Or quieter.

Don’t want your previous searches cluttering up suggestions? You’re in control. You can now toggle search history visibility in the address bar, keeping things tidy (and private).

Control your typed history

Typed something once and never want to see it again? We get it. With a new setting to disable Typed History suggestions, your address bar becomes what you want it to be, not a running diary of every typo and one-off search.

Tab Switcher: List or Grid? Your choice.

Some people are visual, some prefer a list. Now, you can choose how your Tab Switcher looks: stick with the default grid view or switch to a clean, scrollable list.
With the new setting for the Tab Switcher, you decide what works best. You can easily toggle between grid and list view to find the view that’s best for you.
