iPhone : Opera Mini is on the App store!

Joe 90 · 13-04-2010, 02:20

I bring this thread to you from my phone, but not Safari! Hurrah for Opera Mini

Its pretty sweet, and really quick.

The only thing i dont like at the moment (and i just noticed another) is the lack of a bookmark importer and any correction on stuff you type - I'll have to take a look at the settings!

Cool, will give it a look

I currently use iCab Mobile but will see if Opera is better.

Burble · 13-04-2010, 08:03

Excellent, I shall give it a try later.

Shriley not! Apple approving something that is a competitor to their own app. Must have been a rush of blood to the head that let that one through.

Grab it before they pull it. Just because they've approved it today doesn't mean they'll not change their minds tomorrow as they did with WiFi scanning applications recently.

Yeah, missed out on that it seems. Could have done with a decent wi-fi sniffing tool for diagnostics purposes.

It's poop

To me, it's just not usable. The way it scales down pages means you can't read ANYTHING on it so you have to zoom in anyway. Whilst it's got some nice features, I'll be sticking with iCabMobile.

I'll have to check out this iCabMobile, never heard of it

I can't believe they approved it! Go Opera!

Took you 9½ hours to catch up with an Opera mention. Slacker!

Reckon I'll install both and see what works. Used to like Opera on WinMo so we'll see.
