Earlier this week we reported that Vivaldi 1.7 is just around the corner and will let you share things more efficiently thanks to a new functionality added to the built-in screenshot tool that allows insertion of certain areas of a web page on the web browser’s Notes feature. And now, Vivaldi Snapshot 1.7.735.29 is here to introduce a brand-new history panel. Following on the footsteps of the latest Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox web browser, Vivaldi 1.7 now implements a warning in the address bar that will notify users if they are about to send a password over a non-secure (encrypted) connection. The text “Not Secure” will appear for each website that attempts to request your password.
