Also, the number of Opera for iOS organic users who have selected Opera as their default browser has risen 39% across Europe between March 3rd and April 4th.

    We care deeply about establishing a level playing field for developers to foster innovation and free competition. That’s why we collaborated on open web standards in the past and why, together with Meta, Google, Qualcomm, and others, we have co-founded CODE - the Coalition for Open Digital Ecosystems. CODE met for the first time in person at MWC Barcelona where Opera VP Jan Standal joined a panel with Renate Nikolay, Deputy Director-General, DG CNECT, European Commission and Markus Reinisch, VP Public Policy Europe and Global Economic Policy at Meta moderated by Geoff Blaber, CEO, CCS Insight. The participants debated topics that are very important to Opera: the concept of “openness” and its crucial role for better products  and consumer choice - something we’ll be focusing on within the alliance in the near future as well.

    We welcome the opening of iOS to other browser engines and are excited to announce our plans to build a new browser, giving iPhone users a true AI-powered alternative to Safari! This exciting update from Apple comes as a result of the requirements of the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). Our new AI-centric Opera One browser for iOS will be built on its own engine. Since early 2023, we have been innovating in the browser AI space. We introduced the Aria browser AI to all of our key products and completely redesigned our flagship desktop browser that became the AI-centric Opera One. 2024 will be the year to take this a step further.
