Unlock a World of Music and Browsing with Opera One's R2 Update

Opera and Spotify Partnership

Spotify has become the default streaming service within the revamped Music Player in Opera's flagship browser. To mark this significant partnership, Opera is providing up to three free months of Spotify Premium to users in various countries such as Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, the Philippines, Poland, Spain, Thailand, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

People truly enjoy listening to music and podcasts while at their computers. Now, with Spotify integrated into the sidebar of Opera One, everything is at their fingertips. They can shop, write, plan a trip, and all without having to stop listening to their favorite music and audio through the browser's floating multimedia player. As stated by Joanna Czajka, the Product Director at Opera.

The New Music Player with Spotify

The new music player with Spotify is located in the sidebar of the Opera One browser. When activated, it can be detached and moved around the screen without disrupting the user's browsing experience. Instead of constantly switching between tabs and apps, users can utilize the floating browser window.

Another advantage of the built-in widget is that Spotify audio automatically pauses when you join a meeting or call and resumes seamlessly afterward.

Opera One R2 New Features

Opera One R2 brings a brand-new experience. Building on the modular design introduced with Opera One, R2 incorporates the company's latest AI innovations, along with new dynamic themes and enhancements for tab management.

With this major browser update, users can make full use of several new AI features. The more powerful Command Line interface, Aria, the browser's free AI, can swiftly summarize a webpage, analyze an article, or even assist users in comparing products while shopping online.

Image Generation and Image Understanding are also part of the Opera One R2 update. Users have the ability to upload pictures in the sidebar chat, and Aria can explain what is in the image. It is even possible to upload a landscape sketch and ask the AI assistant to create a realistic version.
