Exciting news for Opera's iOS users! The browser is getting a built-in AI assistant called Aria, developed in collaboration with OpenAI. Aria, previously on desktop and Android, now provides intelligent insights, voice commands, and chatbot-like interaction on iOS.
Aria connects with OpenAI's GPT technology and Opera's "Composer" infrastructure, enabling a range of AI capabilities. Users can opt in for Aria's assistance and log in with their Opera accounts. It's available via the "more" menu in the app.
Aria isn't Opera's first AI venture. They've previously introduced AI Prompts for conversations with generative AI services. The move to AI has positively impacted user engagement, with increased time spent and interactions.
Opera for iOS also boasts other handy features like ad blocking, free VPN, tracking prevention, crypto wallet, and more. The integration of Aria adds a new level of AI-powered convenience to your browsing experience.
