Introducing Opera One for iOS: a fresh take on mobile browsing

August 14th, 2024

Hello Opera fans!

We’re thrilled to announce that Opera One, our innovative AI-powered browser, is now available for iOS users! This marks an exciting chapter for iPhone users who are looking to enhance their browsing experience with Opera’s signature style and functionality.

A cleaner look and intuitive navigation

With Opera One for iOS, you can enjoy a full screen browsing experience free from distractions. The browser interface intelligently hides unnecessary elements, and the color of the top and status bars will adapt to match the website you’re visiting, creating an immersive and distraction-free environment.

The new start page carousel is designed to keep you informed without the clutter. It seamlessly integrates news, live scores, and product tips into your wallpaper background.

Our new Bottom Search feature places the search bar at the bottom of your screen, making one-handed navigation a breeze. Whether you prefer Standard Navigation, the Fast Action Button, or Bottom Search, we’ve got you covered.

New way of searching

Our revamped search functionality speeds up your browsing with smart suggestions and predictive keywords, allowing you to type less and find more. As you start typing a search query, Opera One suggests the completion of words or offers the best matching next word. These predictive chips make it easier to find what you’re looking for with fewer keystrokes. Additionally, the new swipe-to-search gesture lets you activate the search bar with a simple swipe down—just like when you search for apps on your iPhone.

Aria, your smart companion

At Opera, we’re all about leveraging AI to make your life easier. That’s why Opera One for iOS includes Aria, our built-in browser AI. Aria can assist with a wide range of tasks, from web searches to generating text and images. With Voice Input, Aria allows you to speak your queries instead of typing them, making it convenient when you’re on the move or need hands-free operation.

Additionally, Aria’s ability to create images using Google’s Imagen2 model enables you to generate visuals simply by providing a prompt. These features make Aria a versatile assistant, ready to help you whenever you need it, whether you’re conducting a quick search, generating content, or exploring creative ideas.

Opera already comes with tools like an ad blocker and free VPN to ensure that your browsing experience is both fast and secure. This update is just the beginning as we continue to innovate and enhance Opera One for iOS.
