Opera GX for Negative User Reviews

✓ Add modsOk let’s just get to the point ADD MODS so I like this app but on the computer it allows you to add mods but in this mobile/iPad version it doesn’t allow you to add mods but if I’m being stupid and there is a way to add mods to the iPad version or I’m right and the creators of this browser app NEEDS to add mods.DinocornunicornVersion: 2.2.0

✓ Love Opera but where is account login and my bookmarks…So I love Opera used it for years but stopped due to the fact there wasn’t a real sync between my phone and computer and it seems that this is still the case. I can login and sync my information on the computer but for it to go where? If I use opera on my phone I can’t even login I can sync Flow but that is all no bookmarks no account no passwords it raises the question of if I continue to use it again….FlyinghsterVersion: 1.9.4

✓ Is the ad block disabled remotely?Hey I don’t know if anyone else noticed this but the ad block feature for stopped working after the new update, even when it says it’s on in the settings. Is this a way for opera to get money by letting certain ads through or not? Other than that this is a great browser and is very user friendly..YeusjdhdVersion: 1.5.1

✓ Great browser! Just missing something.This is a great browser, it’s easy to navigate and it has the latest news involving games right on the main screen. To me, it’s good enough to convert to on desktop, but not mobile just yet. The mobile version is missing one big key feature, and that’s bookmarks and bookmark syncing with desktop. It could be that I just missed it, so if it’s there is not in the menu area where it’d make most sense to have it. It’s a big downside if you do stuff like read manga/webnovels too as it doesn’t have a “reading list” like chrome to keep that stuff separate. I got around that on desktop by just making a new bookmark folder and labeling it “reading list” and putting everything in that, but it’s really inconvenient to not be able to bookmark wherever you leave off on desktop and continue on mobile. I think you can technically do that with “my flow” but that just adds something new and more complicated for those types of tasks, at least in my opinion. If bookmarks and synced bookmarks with desktop is added, then I’ll switch. Otherwise, I’ll stay with chrome..UltraporygonVersion: 1.5.0

✓ Themes not showing upYo be honest I only downloaded this for the let’s game it out theme with the sounds and all but for some reason can’t use it or find it in themes but it’s still a great browser 10/10 for everything except the theme I would like some help with that plz.T_khanVersion: 2.0.1

✓ A few quality of life issues that make it unusableTo keep this short; I enjoy Opera and its all I use on desktop, however on mobile it acts somewhat buggy. On websites that have not been setup to display properly on phones, I am stuck horizontally scrolling and *trying* to zoom out to read text only for the browser to lock my zoom distance. What caused me to write this review was I was trying to reach a Patent document and instead of any of the text wrapping it just extended off the page and I couldnt even zoom out to give it the opportunity to wrap itself. Theres a few other things I dislike that are going to make me go back to Safari on my phone but those are mostly personal preference things..Chance6969Version: 1.9.1

✓ Lack of one feature means the app is a no go for meThe desktop app is fantastic. I can do all I could with chrome and Firefox with all the extra features opera gx comes with. I thought “perfect. I’ll switch and add the mobile apps to my iPhone and iPad. Log in to my newly made opera account and share all my bookmarks and settings as I used to do……. Wait! You can’t log in to your account on the mobile apps!? Huh???” Absolute killer for my workflow meaning I won’t even use the desktop app. I can’t believe they haven’t added this feature. If they ever add a log in and sync feature I’ll be back like a shot but until then, chrome it is..TT DrummerVersion: 1.9.0

✓ HrmmmThis apps great and i’ll use it over safari any day… but it just needs a couple teenie meenie things to make it even better.. Plsss let me sync bookmarks & create bookmark folders!! Also grouping tabs and being able to reorder my tabs would be nice!! Other than that, great app!! Just needs a couple updates pls.LJ1703Version: 2.0.1

✓ Lacks basic featuresI love the desktop version, which is why I downloaded the mobile version so I could have all my bookmarks etc on both devices. However this app lacks such basic features and I can’t even add or view bookmarks on mobile. This app has little to no syncing with the desktop app, only letting you use Flow which is laughably inferior to bookmarks. I’m very disappointed in this app..KiaraFireVersion: 2.0.1

✓ Horrible garbage appAsks you to approve voice recognition on iOS now? This app is trash.Thundergod187Version: 2.2.2

✓ Too simpleGood and simple browser. Will block ads. Does not support bookmarks.AchunkofbutterVersion: 2.2.0

✓ Could be amazingI’m finding a lot of problems using this App on iPhone 13 Pro with the latest update. Obviously it has some great features. But the ad blocker and pop up blocker doesn’t work. (Well, it works very well to the point where I can’t actually view the website) A lot of times I’m viewing a web page it will just freeze and I will have to force stop the app and come back in. I use dark mode and sometimes when I open google I’m blinded by the white background. It has the ground work to be the best browser but with these bugs it’s holding itself back. I do believe I’m being slightly harsh with the 3 stars but it’s more so that I’m annoyed that I can see how great this app could be..RewsmithVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Many problemsCrashes a lot,won’t let me move the position if tabs and will randomly decide that the app will never open again unless I delete and re-download it and cause of that I’ve lost my important tabs with info on them I need.Seth shiptonVersion: 1.8.0

✓ Worst app ever don’t get if you value your sanityFor starters this app is nothing special it is a basic browser that you can’t even sign. Since you can’t sign in you don’t get some key features including the ability to save ANYTHING, so this actually makes it worse then a basic browser. Since most browsers have an actual sign in they don’t have to rely on a feature that is so buggy it doesn’t even work, I am meaning my flow, the worst feature. I had accidentally deleted this browser with my flow attached to my computer and now there is no hope for me ever connecting any devices to my computer ever again, I sat and messed with stuff for at least 2 hours to try to get my flow working but to no prevail and since there is no way to disconnect my phone to my computer, unless from the phone, which, P.S. when you delete opera gx from your phone there is no way of getting it back so that that data is gone forever which means you can’t disconnect my flow, which breaks it on the computer. Also there is a reset my flow button but it doesn’t do anything because is doesn’t do anything to the connections. This app would be a lot better if there even was just a sing in where you can link different devices together that way it also gives an opportunity to save and store data..LeoparodyVersion: 2.1.0

✓ No bookmarks???A friend introduced me to Opera GX for PC a couple months ago. I’m very resistant to change, but gave it a try, and surprisingly liked it so much I made it my default browser on my laptop. Then immediately downloaded the app for my phone to make a full switch! However, much to my dismay, the Opera GX app for iOS doesn’t have a bookmarks feature. Like…what??? Bookmarks are a standard browser feature, and a pretty vital aspect of surfing the web and returning to favorite sites and links. Not having the ability to bookmark a page is ridiculous and (for me at least) crippling. The only reason I keep Opera GX on my phone at all is for the My Flow feature which is pretty handy for tossing files and links back and forth between my phone and laptop. But overall…until the Opera GX app gives me a way to use bookmarks, this browser is worthless..Blackbear4110Version: 1.9.1

✓ Broken on iPadWhenever I search up something on GX, it flashes a lot and went lights out after few seconds. Doesn’t help if I refresh, in fact, after a few refresh, it doesn’t show anything anymore no matter what you do on that tab. Plus, I have seen it display the wrong tab. For example, when a click in to a tab thinking it is tab B, it’s actually tab A. It works on my phone perfectly, just don’t know why it’s so glitchy on my iPad. I’m on the latest version of iPadOS and the app. Love your twitter by the way..Bihfjnc sad,jhcbasd,juvaerbVersion: 2.2.2

✓ My problems with the appThe navigation on mobile is weird. For some reason they decided not to have a bookmarking feature and they make so many new tabs for every time you search. It is a hassle to use, they are missing many features to be a good mobile search engine, and they beg me to rate them and make it my default search engine when I open the app. The only good thing they have is the My Flow feature to send messages and links between your phone and your computer. Other than that you can’t even log into your Opera account to share search history between them or transfer bookmarks (a feature they haven’t even implemented even though the mobile version has been out for years). Overall Opera for mobile is a horrible search engine..Bigrussell18Version: 2.2.2

✓ Please make these changesOpera gx is a good browser, the ad-blocking is great. If you made the following changes, I would change my rating to 5 stars. Please include an options to disable animations, like in Windows 11. The half-second animation I have to sit through every time I switch tabs is infuriating. Please add the ability to rearrange tabs. I like to research things, move on, and come back to them later. Sometimes during research, I like to add new tabs to my group. With the current functionality, making a new tab puts it all the way at the bottom with no way to move it closer to other related tabs. You could even implement official tab groups. If you made these changes, Opera gx would be the best mobile browser..SwagTruthVersion: 1.9.2

✓ No bookmark/general sync with PC and MobileIt’s baffling that there’s no computer to mobile book mark sync, what’s even more baffling is that there’s /no bookmarks/ period for mobile. For a browser thats trying to be at the front of the modern race it’s incredible that they act like people with a computer don’t have a phone they use to browse the internet as well. So for now I’ll probably be sticking to any other browser until a mobile and computer browser sync is implemented. And even beyond that the mobile version of this browser is quite lacking in user friendliness in general going as far as not even letting you move around tabs or see more at once in expanded tab view. So even without book marks you can’t even begin to try to organize your mobile tabs at all. Hope a change is made very soon as the computer version is quite nice. But with no sync is kills it’s chances at being that useful long term without the convenience.Gibberishke dndisnbfjfjdVersion: 2.1.0

✓ TabsWould be better if there was a search bar for the open tabs to streamline which tab you want to open.Ghost9719Version: 2.2.1

✓ Good on desktop, slow on mobileNot worth getting on mobile.Maori_OblivionVersion: 2.1.0

✓ G missed the X for me- download files into oblivion browserI think many of the nice feature considerations for the "gamer" demograaafic seemed pretty swell until you realize that none of them are plausibly useful for anyone who is more than a simple conversationalist gamer. This browser gives us all of the familiar operational operatisms and then because gamers don't have time to touch the mobile functions on screen of their devices - blessed are those whove likely kindled some dexterity in one hand to accept the challenge of being profient landing on the proper part of the UI your villianous thumb is covering. Thumfinalboss began his disgruntled existence simply looking for a place where he could put down things he spent time loading - after long toiling escapdes of searching and locating content ...he still is made to lose in the end, because like all villians... they spend their whole lives with one little ignorant flaw. the suffering of ones own intelligence. Onesinability to see what’s critically obvious to most others. I say all that to say, please add a place to view downloads. I’ll update this to 5 stars. kthx.EntithVersion: 1.7.0

✓ Good but needs more featuresIt works fine for searching and whatnot but it really needs to be more customisable. You should be able to log in and sync up with your computer, be able to access and modify your speed dial and basically have more of the PC features. Mainly just login and speed dial tho..TheBanjVersion: 1.4.0

✓ Decent on desktop, pretty weak on mobile.About sums it up really. Chromes app is considerably more logical to use, so back to it I go.JucieStarVersion: 1.0.4

✓ Not as good as Opera GX on PCAs expected the app is not as good as it’s PC counterpart. Particularly with key iOS features. When I go to save photos, it always says failed, despite the app having various permissions to do so. I find the App to be much slower than Chrome or Safari on iOS when loading web pages. You cannot login to your Opera account like the PC, simply link it to your PC browser, which does little to customise the settings. And it would be nice if you could tailor the app to only show you recommendations based on the consoles you have (maybe I’ve missed this somewhere). This is a good start but I would love for more improvements to be made to bring it in line with the PC app..Dave_EaglesVersion: 1.8.0

✓ Not Made for getting work doneThis app is an absolute nightmare for students. Its inconveniences are endless. The "find my page" feature is particularly useless, failing to highlight or direct you to the specific word or phrase you're searching for, leaving you to manually sift through the entire document. Attempting to highlight text for copying or pasting is equally frustrating, as the app often selects the entire page for no apparent reason. Even after managing to copy and paste, the formatting is a mess, requiring tedious manual deletion of unnecessary spacing. This app has wasted an incredible amount of my time and hindered my ability to work efficiently. Additionally, the app lacks the simple functionality of rearranging tabs, which is just absurd. Although the desktop version of the app is tolerable, the mobile version is undeniably terrible..AwesomeToadVersion: 1.9.1

✓ This app holds back the desktop versionI tried opera gx on desktop and loved it, but one thing holds me back. On Chrome I have many bookmarks that I use frequently on both my pc and my phone as they’re synced on my account. This app doesn’t even have bookmarks, let alone a syncing feature. If it did I would switch to Opera gx on my pc and phone right away..Bradm152Version: 2.2.2

✓ Best Safari Alternative, but…I do really like the app. I think it preforms the best, especially compared to chrome or Firefox. The My Flow synchronization with my PC is very nice and super convenient. I do have one issue with the app that is 100% a dealbreaker which is a shame. There is no in-app password saver and it doesn’t play super well with the iPhone default password saver. I have to manually go into passwords to have it auto fill. And it would be more acceptable if my passwords from my computer would be saved with my flow and vice versa. The fact that it isn’t there is very annoying. The simple fix would be to add a setting where we can sign into our opera account that is on our PC, and sync passwords like you can between computers and profiles. Everything else about the app is really great. Unfortunately I have no way to ensure I won’t lose my passwords for something without manually going into my iPhone settings and typing it out. On safari, chrome, edge, or Firefox all have a very good account sync option, or play well with iPhones settings. Add a fix to this and I’ll update my review to 5 stars..Kian.VVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Good but could be betterOpera gx is a browser made for gamer that automatically inform the user of the most recent news concerning games. It is fast. It has a fonction that allow where you finish on your computer if you use opera gx on it. The biggest and only issue that I have with the mobile app is there are no bookmarks or favorite site which is kind of a big deal if you have 5 or more of those. I personally have at lease 20 (many manga) so i am kind of force to use something else.._____________&…___=~-$fxxfVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Bruh just firefox but worseOk so opera gx vs firefox 1. Performance opera gx 30 fps firefox 50 fps Opera gx 0 firefox 1 2. Customization opera gx no choosing where to launch to when reopening firefox settings chose where you are when reopening Opera gx 0 firefox 2 Final round incognito mode opera gx idk firefox some button in the top left corner Opera gx 0 firefox 3 Winner firefox.FnnnhnVersion: 1.9.4

✓ Decent browser but needs a few more featuresOpera GX is a powerful browser with a reasonable amount of customization with themes and the ability to change the app icon appearance, but I cant help but feel hindered by a few missing features. In the desktop browser version, there is a whole side panel with different add-ons and features, however on this app version there isn't even an area to view Bookmarks. I found myself frustrated that even after setting up Flow and/or signing in, i still couldn't access my bookmarks, and had to resort to opening the bookmarked pages on my desktop and using Flow to send them to my phone. I hope to see this browser continue to improve and grow, but for now I can't use it as my main browser of choice..C0feefoxVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Pretty uselessThe actual desktop experience of Opera GX is unmatched. The app really feels like a flaccid attempt at putting out the bare minimum, there is no way Ive found that I can sign into my account, and even if devices are synced the mobile experience is entirely shallow, you may have access to “your flow” but that is just about it. None of your bookmarks from desktop or essentially anything else you can think of is accessible and no amount of pairing and unpairing your devices will bring them. All features (in total, four) are hidden somewhere along the bottom bar in a strange, non intuitive way. Nothing really carries over basically..AgustdilaVersion: 2.1.0

✓ Great, but there’s a really annoying glitch.I’ve been using this browser for a while now on iPad and mac, and I love it! But there’s a few problems with the iPad version. First of all, you can’t move tabs to different spots. You also can’t pin tabs like the max version. This may seem small, but these features are useful and I really would like to have them. Also, recently I’ve been experiencing a glitch where, for example, I’ll be using an ai generator in 2 tabs, and I’ll have yt in another for music by using the MiniPlayer iPad feature, and then my music will stop playing, and then I’ll check on it and my page reloaded, not super annoying off the bat, just have to open the tab again, but then I’ll go back to my ai page, and it will reset because it reloaded. This is really annoying because I have had good images be lost forever because of this glitch. If it’s not a glitch, and it’s a feature to save energy, make it optional please. My last complaint is that all pages default to the desktop site, and it being default that way is not optional. Otherwise, really great and have to recommend!.RobodoggoVersion: 1.7.0

Opera GX works most of the time. If it is not working for you, we recommend you excersise some patience and retry later or contact Opera GX.
