Opera, the Norwegian browser developer, released a new version of its mobile browser, Opera for Android 51, which now features a built-in VPN service.
The new browser VPN is free, unlimited and easy to use. When enabled it gives users enhanced control of their online privacy and improves their online security, especially when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks. With this addition, Opera marks a new standard for privacy and security in mobile browsing.
“There are already more than 650 million people using VPN services globally. With Opera they can now enjoy a free and no-log service that enhances online privacy and improves security,” said Peter Wallman, SVP Opera Browser for Android.
Increased online privacy
When users enable the built-in VPN, they will create a private and encrypted connection between their mobile devices and a remote VPN server, using strong 256-bit encryption algorithms. When enabled, the VPN will hide the user physical location and will make it hard to track their behavior on the Web. The browser VPN service is also a no-log service, which means that the VPN servers do not log and retain any activity data, all to protect users privacy.
Improved online security when on public Wi-Fi
The built-in VPN is a very useful feature for Internet users who connect to public Wi-Fi in coffee shops, airports and hotels. The VPN will send users’ request through a secure tunnel that encrypts Internet traffic coming in and out from their mobile devices. This reduces the risk of malicious third parties collecting sensitive information.
“The fact is that users are exposed when they connect to public Wi-Fi without a VPN,” said Wallman. “By enabling Opera’s browser VPN service, users make it very difficult for third parties to steal pieces of their information and can avoid being tracked. Users no longer need to question if or how they can protect their personal information in these situations.”
This version introduces a new fast scroller that enables quicker navigation on long pages. Tap it to jump to the top or end of a page. Also, enjoy picture-in-picture viewing of videos (Android 8 and up) and site-specific ad block settings.
More change :
Improved ad blocker
Since Opera for Android 50, our native ad blocker has become more powerful than ever before as we have now included a new site-specific setting. This feature was implemented in our Opera browser for computers back in 2016 and today we are bringing this experience to our mobile browser.
The site-specific ad blocker option is also a friendly solution for publishers to display their ads. It’s also an easy solution for users as they can switch the ad blocker on or off in two taps on the websites that they value the most.
This option can be enabled from the search bar of the browser. Users can tap on the green lock located at the left side of the website address which will display a window with site settings. Users can then choose to exclude a website from ad blocking.
The team has done a lot of work under the hood to improve the cookie dialog blocking feature, which is receiving greater site coverage.
Picture in Picture and faster navigation
Other noteworthy features is include include a simple way to open pdf file and other document , support for dark css theme , picture – in – picture support for video ( Android 8 and above ) , and a nifty new fast scroller for quick page navigation .
The scroll handle also acts as the quick jump tool used in previous versions of Opera. Tap the handle when the arrow points up or down to go to the very beginning or end of a web page.

Streamlining your browser experience
With new privacy regulations, we have seen a noticeable increase of cookie and privacy dialogs in our browsers. Sometimes, I want to rip out my hair over all the checkboxes and accept buttons to press just to get to the content that matters!
We have extended on our ad blocker technology to optionally include the elimination of the vast majority of these cookie and privacy dialogs. Simply go into Settings > Ad blocking to find the option to enable this.

You can also choose to close or preserve your open tabs when you exit the browser.
