Why can't I download or use the Opera app?

Opera is a set of web browser apps used to search the Internet. Opera is built upon the Chromium technology (published by Google), but it does not support Chromium policies, unlike most other Chromium-based web browsers, such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Safe Surfer blocks Opera because of its lack of support for these policies, which we require to make protection work in certain situations. In addition, the Opera Mini app processes website domains in the cloud, which means that online content cannot be filtered.

Safe Surfer fully supports most web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, and Firefox.
