We all remember Opera browser, as it was among the initial third party browsers for the smartphones. Opera is not just limited to the browser, the company also deals in data compression tool known as Opera Max. Today, it received a major update that allows data compression on Wi-Fi.
In simpler terms, the Opera Max (1.0.225) update will let the users connected on a public Wi-Fi fetch better browsing speed. Opera Max has amalgamated the working of Virtual Private Network (VPN) and data compression. So it goes like, the software diverts your internet traffic to Opera’s servers, and from there users receive a compressed version of data, which in turn boosts browsing speed and decreases data cost.
Also, we need to keep in mind that Opera Max is not compatible with the applications that use encrypted connections. It means that if you’re more hooked to apps like Facebook and most of your data is drawn to it, then Opera Max won’t come handy to you.
Opera Max is compatible with most of the browsers and also applications that fetch data through an encrypted connection. The new update has tweaked the working in a useful manner, now users will be allowed to manage their data as it provides an info about the data used by each app, so that users can figure out that which app takes in most of the data. As per the change-log on the Play Store, the update also brings in plenty of user-friendly changes in the user interface.
