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

I can't understand why sometimes it stops responding and loading pages. Very frustrating and I'm not the only one. This is happening with others and it appears to not have been fixed nor addresses by the developers. Edit: work around is to "report the site" that will load and then the browser can start over. Edit: so now all my shortcuts have about 40% of the text cutoff making it hard to read. Something isn't working, maybe this is just an "eco-system" thing, bit whatever it is, it's not good.

Works fine as an actual browser. Breaks itself if it tries to open a link into an app most of the time. Either won't load the page if you choose to open it in the browser, or won't take you to the app the link should take you to. Also clicking on the search bar doesn't bring up the keyboard right away anymore. Extremely annoying bug

Two regressions 1.) Making a YouTube video full screen triggers the app to go into pip mode and then also minimize the app itself and close the pip window too. 2.) Mentioned in other reviews too, the keyboard does not appear when clicking the address bar in the first attempt. Feature request: Simple tabbed browsing support. The feature already exists that you can open a link in a new tab. I use this as my primary browser so it's frustrating to use workarounds to open a new tab.
