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”.

To make logging into accounts easier, you can save your passwords in Vivaldi. After you’ve logged in to a new website, you’re asked whether you want to save the password or not. In case you select “Never”, you won’t be asked again. In case you change your mind and do want to save passwords for that website, here’s what you need to do.

To remove websites from the Passwords’ Declined Sites:

1. Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Passwords > Declined Sites.
2. Select the website you want to remove from the list.
3. Click on the “Remove site” button at the bottom of the list.

You can reduce the number of open tabs by adding pages you want to check later to the Reading List. When you open a page from the Reading List, it gets marked as read automatically. In case you changed your mind about reading the article or didn’t get a chance to finish, you can mark the page as unread again.

To mark a page as unread:

1. Open the Reading List panel or Reading List pop-up.
2. Find the page you want to mark as unread.
3. Click on the eye icon next to the page title.

Similarly, by clicking the checkmark icon next to an unread page, you can mark it as read.

You can jot down ideas, save useful stuff you find online, make lists, and more with Vivaldi Notes. Some notes may be important enough for you to want to share them with others or access them from outside the browser or even your computer. In that case, you may be interested to know how to save notes as a PDF file or print them on paper.

To save or print a note:

1. Open the note in the Notes Manager.
2. Go to the main Vivaldi menu > File > Print.
3. Select the destination, for example, “Save as PDF” or your printer.
4. If needed, adjust other settings.
5. Click “Save”/”Print”.

On Vivaldi Social, you can highlight posts by pinning them to the top of your profile. These can be introductions, big news, popular posts, or anything else you want to showcase. While browsing other people’s accounts, make sure to give their pinned posts a look as well. Since some have pinned a lot of them, pinned posts have been grouped into a carousel, so you wouldn’t need to spend too much time scrolling past them to get to the latest posts.

To view pinned posts:

1. Go to the account’s profile and scroll past the Bio section.
2. Click on the arrows in the top right corner of the Pinned Posts section to see the next or previous pinned post.

The desktop-like Tab Bar in Vivaldi on iOS and the mobile version’s Tab Switcher come with the option to reorder your open tabs with drag and drop, just like on desktop. The only difference is that instead of a mouse, you need to use your finger or a stylus pen to do it.

To reorder tabs on the Tab Bar or in the Tab Switcher:

1. Long-press on the tab you want to move.
2. Drag it to the new location.
3. Release your finger to finish the move.

You can get a hint that the web page in the active tab is loading from the Address Field, which temporarily turns into a progress bar. In addition, you can see when a tab is loading on the Tab Bar. This is especially useful for your tabs in the background, which might be loading, for example, when you’ve set up Periodic Reload. There are a few animation options available, so you can select the one you like most.

To select an animation:

1. Go to Settings > Tabs > Tab Display > Page Load Progress.
2. Choose between:
   • Progress Bar
   • Favicon Progress
   • Favicon Spinner (shown in the image below)
   • None
