Leave a Review Opera GX
Keeps crashing every time I try to open it during update
Good browser. The main issue I’ve had with this app (both on my phone and tablet) is that every time there is a software update for this app, it starts to crash every time I open it once my current version of the app goes out of date, at least that’s my hypothesis. I either have to completely delete the app (which will remove all of my bookmarks and delete all of my previously open tabs and remove the custom browser theme and background image.) this is the most highly frustrating part of this app. Instead of crashing the app, making the update impossible to install because of some weird reason, just add a dialogue box to the app that will persistently remind the user every time they freshly open the app to update it for full functionality.Show lessSome infuriating issues ruining a great product
I use GX on my computer and I absolutely love it. I have zero issue, and it works like a dream there. On my iPad, though, I have found it to be infuriating.
It has almost all the great features of Opera GX, but I don’t get any of my cool effects (I can live without). What really gets me is the tabs. I cannot move them around to reorganize them, the literal second I tab away to another tab on the same browser, it kinda… shuts the previous tab down, so it reloads and I lose my place every time, which, as someone trying to use this for homework as opposed to Chrome, is massively infuriating when trying to organize information.
Last but not least, the part that gets me the most is the fact that it mislabels my tabs. Tab management is next to impossible because I’ll click on a tab for an article and then it loads and it turns out it was my google keeps tab. I click on the tab labeled google keeps and it loads the page that has my assignment criteria. It drives me up the wall, to the point where I am considering returning to chrome or safari just so I don’t burn so much of my mental energy on trying to handle this app.
Again, love GX on my desktop, but the tab issues are going to make me snap my iPad in half.Show lessBetter Than Ads or Apps!
Got Opera for its built in ad blocking or related options. Instead of getting massive ads in the apps. Was using over firefox since it blocks ublock origins on apple phones etc. My laptop stopped letting opera work on it without reason. So was hoping to dl that app instead of this opera.
Really like the color scheme option for text etc. Biggest issues are trying to click reload for pages. Often it clicks the thing to type address or hard to explain until using. Also when first opens, the new tab gets clicked. Its cool that can get screen on its side too. Besides asking to rate the app, there are not many annoying issues. Will always keep this browser for what it can block. As really limited on my phone use abilities. Not sure if the flow security issues are a worry for phones. Supposedly fixed issue with hackers able to use it to run stuff etc.Show less
