Quick Commands are a great way to open your notes. Just enter the note’s title or even just a word in the note to find the right one. By default, the note will open in the Notes Panel, but if you prefer to view and edit your notes in the Notes Manager, you can do that too.

To open notes in the Notes Manager:

1. Go to Settings > Quick Commands > Quick Command Options.
2. Enable „Open Notes in Notes Manager”.

To disable notifications:

1. Go to Settings > Downloads.
2. Disable „Notify on Completed Downloads”.

When you move the Address and Tab Bars to the bottom edge of the screen, the Navigation Bar, together with some useful buttons, will be hidden. For example, the one taking you back to the Start Page. Luckily, there’s a setting in Vivaldi on Android that you can toggle to bring it back.

To add a Home button to the Address Bar:

1. Go to Settings > Appearance & Theme.
2. Enable „Show Start Page Icon in Address Bar”.

If you want to open a website instead of the Start Page when tapping on the Home button (and New Tab button), go to Settings > General > Homepage to set the web page link.

Vivaldi Translate helps to broaden your horizons and make sense of content that hasn’t been written in languages that you speak. When you paste text into the Translate Panel, instead of getting the translation only after clicking the Translate button, you can enable a setting that shows you the translated version immediately.

To enable automatic translation:

1. Go to Settings > Panel > Translate Panel.
2. Enable „Translate when pasting text”.

Usually, when you’re finished searching for something on a web page, to close it, you need to click the close button on the search bar or press the Esc key (which works when the search bar is focused). But there’s a setting in Vivaldi that allows you to open and close the Find in Page search bar with the same Keyboard Shortcut, Mouse Gesture, or Quick Command.

To enable the setting:

1. Go to Settings > Webpages.
2. Enable „Toggle Find in Page when using Shortcut”.

While customizing the appearance of the Start Page is fun, you probably don’t do it very often. The same goes for manually adding new Speed Dial bookmarks. If that’s the case, feel free to hide one or both of the buttons in Vivaldi on Android and iOS and use alternative routes on occasions you do need to access these features.

To hide the buttons from the Start Page:

1. Tap on the „Customize” button on the Start Page.
   Alternatively, go to Settings > Start Page.
2. Toggle off „Customize Start Page Button” and/or „Show Add Button”.

When these buttons have been hidden, tap on the 3 dot menu in the top right corner of the Start Page and select „Customize Start Page” to access customization settings. To add new Speed Dial bookmarks, select the right Speed Dial folder when adding an open web page as a bookmark or add one manually in the Bookmarks Panel.
