Opivv
WORKS IN OPERA & OPERA GX

A screen recorder for Opera and Opera GX

Opera and Opera GX are built on Chromium, so the Opivv extension runs in them just like in Chrome. Record a tab, a window, or your whole screen with your webcam and mic, then share a watch-in-browser link the moment you stop.

This tab, a window, your whole screen or just an area. Turn your camera and mic on or off.

3

Stop and share

The link is copied the second you stop. Paste it into Slack, email or a ticket.

Installs from the Chrome Web StoreOpera runs Chrome extensions. Open the Chrome Web Store in Opera, allow installs from it if your browser asks, and add Opivv to your toolbar.

Why a Chrome extension works in Opera

Opera and Opera GX are built on Chromium, the same open-source engine behind Chrome, Edge, and Brave. That means they run Chrome extensions, so Opivv installs and behaves exactly as it does in Chrome. Opera keeps its own add-ons gallery as well, so the first time you visit the Chrome Web Store you may see a prompt to enable installing extensions from it. Allow that once and the usual Add to browser button works.

The one other thing worth knowing: like any screen recorder, Opivv needs permission to capture your screen and, if you use them, your camera and microphone. Opera asks once and remembers your choice.

Recording in the browser instead of installing an app

Most screen recorders are desktop apps: you download an installer, give it system permissions, record to a file, then upload that file somewhere before anyone can watch it. Opivv lives in the Opera toolbar instead. You click record, choose a tab, window, or your screen, and stop when you are done.

On stopping, the clip uploads to your private library and a share link lands on your clipboard. The person you send it to just opens the link in whatever browser they use, including Firefox and Safari, with no account and nothing to install. Only the recorder needs a Chromium browser.

Frequently asked

Yes. Opera is a Chromium browser, so it runs Chrome extensions. You install Opivv from the Chrome Web Store while using Opera, and it works exactly as it does in Chrome: record a tab, window, or screen and get a share link.
