Now sporting page loading speed improvements, Vivaldi 7.2 also comes with a tweaked address bar, the ability to override keyboard shortcuts and to create events directly from email messages, a new currency widget, workspace access via quick commands, as well as account reordering in Vivaldi Mail.
One of the most popular web browsers on the market aimed at power users has just received an update that makes it even faster and more flexible than before. Vivaldi 7.2 comes with several under-the-hood changes that make page loading faster but also several interface changes that aim to provide both speed and flexibility to the users of this piece of code, regardless of their level of proficiency.
In addition to featuring optimized connection handling, Vivaldi 7.2 also comes with the following highlights:
The ability to set keyboard shortcut priority, thus overriding browser-wide shortcuts with page-specific ones and the other way around, as needed.
Right-clicking an email message to create a calendar event from it.
A new currency widget for real-time conversions inside the dashboard screen.
Workspaces can be retrieved faster using quick commands.
Users who are using multiple email accounts can reorder them as needed in Vivaldi Mail.
The updated version is labeled 7.2.3621.63 for all platforms, including 32-bit Windows. In addition to Windows, Vivaldi for desktop is available for macOS 11 and later, as well as multiple Linux flavors (both DEB and RPM packages can be downloaded for various hardware architectures). The mobile versions have not received an update since last month.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
