I used this app for many months, and it's not the best on my galaxy S23 Ultra. Many websites that I visited just didn't load correctly using this browser and required me to open it in a different browser to actually see all of the information. I messed around with turning on/off ad block and other settings but never could get it to work properly.

The only notable issues I have with this browser so far: Fails to open some common links like a link from the browser to the Google Play Store. Cannot play YouTube in the background when the app is not in focus (Brave browser can). Ad blocker on YouTube struggles to block the ads and proceed to the video (Brave browser does this flawlessly). Aside from these three issues, I really like this browser because of the Flow feature as I am constantly moving between multiple devices.

Still no option to import my saved passwords from Chrome! I've been wanting to switch from Chrome to opera gx as my default browser. But despite many people asking, there's still no option to import all of my saved passwords and stuff. I can't imagine it would be too much to add this feature. I mean, most other browser apps have it already. I love the browser, I just wish I could switch to it.
