When we started building Vivaldi, we wanted to do it on our terms
and for our users. Vivaldi isn’t like any other browser. It is
nothing short of a powerful tool that gives you more control with
every release.
Our endless customization options and a wealth of features have
something for every user. Vivaldi 1.13 is ready – this time with
superior tab management. The Window Panel makes a debut in our
latest version, together with improved downloads and
under-the-hood work.
Window Panel makes managing your tabs a breeze
We know that you love tabs, so we are always adding new ways of
working with them. If you are a heavy tab user, the Window Panel
comes in as a very useful feature. The Window Panel opens to the
side of the browser which gives you a “tree-style” view of tabs.
You can conveniently navigate them via your keyboard, group them
into Tab Stacks and more. In addition to this, the list shows all
tabs without compacting their size. Searching or sorting to track
down a tab is easier than ever before.

Manage your tabs effortlessly and effectively by doing the
following:
- Drag tabs to change their order.
- Group tabs by topic to save space.
- Tile Tab Stacks to compare several web pages side by side.
- Hibernate unused tabs or Tab Stacks for better performance.
- Pin tabs to ensure they always stay open.
- Mute sound in specific tabs.
Currently, the Window Panel works per window, but we have plans to
add more functionality to suit your needs. We hope that this new
feature will complement the way you use Vivaldi and we look
forward to your feedback to make it even better.
More to the downloads
We are always trying to improve every feature in Vivaldi. In
version 1.13 we turned our attention to the Downloads Panel with
the following improvements:
Warning dialog when closing the browser before a download is
complete.
Ability to pause and resume downloads.
Download speed displayed in the download progress bar.

Under-the-hood improvements
Our latest version also focuses on performance improvements. We
have worked on the rewrite of the window handling code in this
update. These under-the-hood enhancements are a maintenance
necessity allowing us to architect the features better. At the
same time, we hope this will provide performance benefits,
especially on older, slower hardware.
Building an “all-rounder” browser
Vivaldi 1.13 arrives just around Thanksgiving, and we take this
opportunity to thank you – our users and our incredible community
– once again. We have come a long way riding on a simple
philosophy of building an “individual” browser. We will continue
to add more built-in functionality with a plethora of
customization options that make you more efficient online. While
we are working hard on the much-anticipated feature Sync and other
differentiating features, we aim to provide a seamless and
fulfilling browsing experience to each and every one of you.
Enjoy your browsing with our new version and let us know your
thoughts.
