To connect to Flow with a QR scan:

From Opera Touch on your phone, tap and tap Settings.
At the top, tap Connect a computer.
Tap Scan QR Code (you may be asked to allow Opera Touch to access the camera).
From your Opera browser for computers, open Flow in Opera’s sidebar and click Connect Your Phone or Reveal the QR code.
Scan the revealed QR code with your phone. Your phone and computer will connect.

Should you be unable to scan the provided QR code, you can manually enter a connection code to connect to Flow.

To set up Flow with a connection code:

From Opera Touch on your phone, tap and tap Settings.
Tap Connect a computer.
From your Opera browser for computers, open Flow in Opera’s sidebar and click Connect Your Phone or Reveal the QR code.

If both methods fail to connect, refresh the Flow panel in your Opera computer browser to generate a new QR code or connection code.

Disconnecting your phone from Flow

Tap and tap Settings.
Under Flow, tap Delete Flow.
In the double-check prompt, tap Delete.

If you wish to reconnect the device, repeat the connection process.
