Opera makes it easier than ever to keep your desktop and Android in sync
If Opera is your browser of choice on Windows and your Android phone, working between the two is about to get a lot easier. Opera announced new versions of both apps today, each of which bring new features to make syncing and sharing links, files, and more much easier.
The highlight here is the addition of Flow, which is a carryover from Opera Touch. Flow lets you open an encrypted chat with yourself between desktop and mobile, where you can quickly share links, media, text, or anything else that catches your eye that you may want to carry over between mobile to desktop or vice versa.
Beyond flow, you can also now keep your browsers in sync between platforms without logging in. Opera can now serve up a QR code at opera.com/connect that will share your passwords, browsing history, speed dials, bookmarks, and open tabs when scanned. The option to create an account to keep things in sync is still there, but this is a good solution for people who would rather cut down on the number of accounts they have to keep track of.
