Opera Mini's new video download feature aims to help you save even more data

Opera Mini's new video download feature aims to help you save even more data

In keeping with Opera Mini's main goal, Opera is billing this as a way to save on your mobile data. For example, if one of your friends uploads a video to social media that you'd like to watch over and over again, you can simply download the video the first time you watch it.

To get started, Opera says all you have to do is tap "Play" on the video. You'll then get to choose which folder to which you'd like to save the video, then you tap download. If you've already started watching a video, you can tap the download icon at any time at the top-right corner of the screen.

Lastly, for Indian users, Opera says it has teamed up with local streaming service Hungama and Sportskeeda to provide a Bollywood news feed and real-time cricket updates on the Opera Mini home screen.
