Hey all,
You asked, and we delivered: today – just after the Fall Equinox, as the Northern Hemisphere enters a period of darkness – Opera Air introduces Dark Ambience, a stylish new way to experience your browser.
When we first launched Opera Air, our mindful browser featured a bright, cozy interface. We wanted it to radiate lightness and calm – to help you de-stress and feel more at peace while you browse the often chaotic web.
And now, thanks to all the feedback we got from you, we are updating Opera Air with Dark Ambience, an inky new aesthetic that will help you browse in tune with your vibe and the hour of day from morning through those now-longer nights.
Instead of a flat black, we used a translucent, frosted glass design that creates a softer, more comfortable viewing experience. It’s not just a dark mode – it’s an adaptive environment that, in time, will automatically adjust to the time of day. The smoky glow of Opera Air’s Dark Ambience provides a warm and gentle look that’s easier on your eyes, and your computer’s battery.
It’s easy to switch from Light to Dark Ambience – you just have to go to the Easy Setup (in the top-right corner), where you can toggle between your preferred aesthetic under Appearance.
As you switch between light and dark UI, you also influence the websites you’re viewing. For example, if you switch to the Dark Ambience and a website supports dark mode, then the site will appear dark as well.
Additionally, you’ll now also be able to select from a new collection of dark wallpapers so your browser can match the ambience: try the stars illuminating a glacial lake at night, or bubbles swelling in a cloudy, dusk sky.
So now, whatever your mood, your energy, the time of day – Opera Air can match it. Perhaps your UI is light by day, as you’re getting through meetings and emails, stopping here and there for a breathing exercise or a neck stretch. And then at night, as you’re signing off, a new dark glow from your laptop screen accompanies Emma as you’re guided through a relaxing meditation – the choice is yours!
We hope you enjoy the new Dark Ambience! Credit yourselves: your feedback became the driving force behind our latest update. Keep it coming – we’re thrilled that we get to co-shape our mindful browser with the Opera Air community.
