Firefox Focus: No Fuss Browser

Mozilla

About this app

Use Firefox Focus for everything you want to keep separate from your main browser — for all those get in get out and forget about it moments. No tabs, no fuss, no muss. Block online trackers too. One tap, and your browsing history is completely destroyed.

Firefox Focus is the perfect get in/get out, search and destroy, I’m on a mission that’s none-of-your-business — web browser.

NEW DISTRACTION-FREE DESIGN
When you open Focus, you just get the awesome bar and the keyboard for super quick searching. That’s it. No recent history, no past sites, no open tabs, no ads trackers, no distractions. Just a simple, minimal design with menus that make sense.

ONE TAP TO DELETE HISTORY
Erase your history, passwords and cookies with just a tap of the trash button.

CREATE SHORTCUTS
Pin up to four shortcuts on your home screen. Get to your favorite site even quicker without typing anything.

FASTER BROWSING WITH AD BLOCKING & TRACKING PROTECTION
Firefox Focus blocks many ads you’d normally see on web pages due to our enhanced tracking protection so you get much faster page load speeds, which means you get to the stuff you want a lot faster. Focus blocks a wide range of trackers by default, including social trackers and those sticky ones that come from things like Facebook ads.

BACKED BY A NON-PROFIT
Firefox Focus is backed by Mozilla, the non-profit that fights for your rights on the web, so you can trust it not to sell your data.

Ratings and reviews

Simple, fast, stops ads, supposedly wipes history on exit, privacy focused. A great instant browser that I use all the time for quick easy safe browsing. A few things I can't do with it (eg save / print pages), but I use another browser for that. Has the ability to delete tabs individually, needs the option to open a new blank tab. The footprint is now quite large (200+ Mb), including over 30Mb of unexplained data.

No ads, No browsing history and very speedy. I tried different browsers already but this one is the most minimal browser I need. However, there is no New Tab button. Like why? Secondly, cache erasing & tab force closing after few minutes switching to use different apps is very frustrating. I hope the browser only erases cache & browse history after I FULLY EXIT, or FORCEFULLY CLOSE the browser. I wait for these 2 issues to be updated. In meantime, this is still not my default browser.

I found it an interesting concept, it appears to be a lite browser, as it has fewer customization options, but it does have various security and privacy settings activated by default. I liked the simplicity and minimalism, the only thing missing was the option of forced dark mode on pages that don't officially have this feature.
