14 DAY TRIAL // You'd think that with the release of Vivaldi 1.12 stable the development would take at least a week off before starting to work on the next version. Wrong! Vivaldi 1.13 development was kicked off just one day later.
That's right, Vivaldi Snapshot 1.13.966.3 is out as the first development milestone towards Vivaldi 1.13, the next stable release of the Chromium-based web browser designed with the power user in mind. Following the great feedback received from users after the release of Vivaldi 1.12, the team already fixed a bunch of regressions and issues.
"Following the release of Vivaldi 1.12, we’re rolling out the first snapshot for 1.13. We loved getting all the feedback from you on yesterday’s stable release. Thanks to all your great input, we’re already well underway with some important fixes," said Maria Popova, QA Engineer at Vivaldi, in the release notes.
Here's what's new in Vivaldi Snapshot 1.13.966.3
Among some of the improvements introduced in the first Vivaldi 1.13 snapshot, we can mention the implementation of the Ctrl+B keyboard shortcut for turning on bookmarks in Gmail, better support for the emailondeck.com website, performance improvements for the search functionality in Settings, as well as support for sharing your screen in Google hangouts.
The bundled favicons for search engines have been updated as well, the style for history typed from the search field now looks like it's supposed to, and it's again possible to copy only the domain part of a long URL. You can study the full changelog below, and download Vivaldi Snapshot 1.13.966.3 for GNU/Linux, macOS or Windows operating systems right now from our website.
While it might be tempting to run an unreleased version of Vivaldi, such as Vivaldi 1.13 in this case, we strongly recommend that you stay on the stable channel and use Vivaldi 1.12, which introduces image properties panel in when you right-click on an image, a revamped Downloads panel, and the ability to control the saturation levels of websites' accent colors.
