Opera One for iOS wins the MUSE Design Award 2024

An iPhone show Opera One for iOS.

Hey all,

We’ve got some exciting news to share: Opera One for iOS has just won the MUSE Design Award for 2024. This is a big moment for us, and we’re thrilled that our hard work to create a better mobile browser experience has been recognized.

Opera One for iOS marries the aesthetics of the (also) award-winning Opera One desktop browser with a full screen mobile interface and simplified user commands – basically, it’s all about making browsing on iOS easier and more enjoyable. 

We’ve introduced a new navigation style, Bottom Search, which shifts the search bar to the bottom of the screen. Bottom Search makes it easier for you to use your phone with one hand, so it’s especially useful when on the go. Now you can switch between all three navigation styles – Standard Navigation, Fast Action Button, and Bottom Search – to find the one that best suits your needs.

We’ve also made it super easy to search when you’re out and about. Predictive chips supply search suggestions to help you find what you’re looking for faster, and with fewer clicks. Plus, with the new swipe to search functionality, you can pull up the search bar anytime you need it with just a quick swipe upwards.

Opera One for iOS has been designed to be clean and simple, so you can focus on what matters most – your content. The top bar and new Bottom Search bar, for example, vanish when you start scrolling on a page, while the color of the top and status bars adjusts to the hue of the web page you’re on. The result is a full screen browsing experience in which you are entirely immersed in what’s at hand.

Meet Aria: Your Built-In AI Assistant

Opera One for iOS comes with our AI assistant, Aria, built right into the browser. Aria is a free, unlimited built-in browser AI that comes with up-to-date results from the web. It helps you get things done faster, whether that’s finding information, generating text or code, or even answering product queries while you browse. It’s like having a smart, helpful friend with you every time you’re online.

We’re constantly updating Aria to integrate exciting new AI features, and with Opera One for iOS, we’ve added two more. The first is Voice Input, which lets you simply ask questions aloud rather than have to type them out – perfect for busy people on the go. The second is image generation, with which you can create any image that’s on your mind based on the input that you provide. Powered by Google’s Imagen2 image generation model, Aria will allow you to refine your image until it’s exactly what you want – as well as copy the image to the clipboard, save it, share it, or even set it as your device’s wallpaper.

A Big Thank You to Our Users

Winning the MUSE Design Award is a huge honor – last year over 10,000 entries were recorded, but only the select few won. Honored as we are, we know that we couldn’t have done it without you, our users. Your feedback and support have been key to making Opera One for iOS what it is today, and we’re committed to continuing to bring you the best browsing experience possible.
