Oslo-based Vivaldi has released an update to its Android browser replete with additional weaponry for the ongoing Tracker and Ad Blocker arms race.

Version 3.2 for Android devices ups the ante by allowing users to select additional blocking lists as well as including custom lists in a manner that will be very familiar to those running the company's desktop browser.

The integrated Tracker and Ad Blocker was already a thing in the Android app, and easily enabled or disabled.

The addition of new sources of block lists permits users to be a bit more granular with what the browser will put a stop to.

Version 3.2 of Vivaldi for Android has also tidied up the mobile interface, with buttons for enhanced tab functionality shunted to the bottom of the app and the Tab Strip renamed to Tab Bar.
