For users in Türkiye, most of the matches take place between 05.00 and 07.00 in the morning. Opera is making significant changes to its interface to make it easier to follow matches in these early hours.

Renewed start page and personalization

Opera has completely redesigned the start page in its Android browser to provide a more fluid experience. The new design makes the transition between content and search experience smoother as soon as the browser is opened.
