Firefox Beta for Testers

Mozilla

About this app

Firefox Browser for Android is automatically private and incredibly fast. Thousands of online trackers are following you every day, collecting information about where you go online and slowing down your speed. Firefox blocks over 2000 of these trackers by default and there are ad blocker add-ons available if you want to customize your browser even more. With Firefox, you’ll get the security you deserve and the speed you need in a private, mobile browser.

FAST. PRIVATE. SAFE.
Firefox is faster than ever and gives you a powerful web browser that protects your privacy. Keep what’s personal private with Enhanced Tracking Protection, which automatically blocks over 2000 online trackers from invading your privacy. With Firefox, you don’t have to dig in your privacy settings, everything is set up automatically, but if you like to be in control, you can choose from the many ad blocker add-ons available for the browser. We designed Firefox with smart browsing features that let you take your privacy, passwords, and bookmarks with you safely wherever you go.

ENHANCED TRACKING PROTECTION AND PRIVACY CONTROL
Firefox gives you greater privacy protection while you’re on the web. Block third-party cookies and unwanted ads that follow you around the web with Enhanced Tracking Protection. Search in Private Browsing mode and you won’t be traced or tracked — your private browsing history is automatically erased when you're done.

Ratings and reviews

Speed is much better than the old version, but room for improvement. I like collections, but they don't sync. Visual tab representation has gotten much better in July '20 release. Still needs more add-ons (more are coming), URL bar should stay at the bottom when selected, and Top Sites/Collections links should be editable (at least the name). In addition, it would be nice to easily access Top Sites/Collections in private mode.

Absolutely Golden. 1 flaw IMO, I suggest immediately after download, open settings, SCROLL DOWN and turn off the option regarding data & privacy called (STUDIES) the app keeps, sells, or shares data by default.(I THINK) so, IMO. Disable studies, then a window pops up and says to turn this off, you must quit the app. It's fine. Do it. Hit continue. As soon as you do, simply re open the app, and you are now tracker free after 1, 2 more adjustments, that is. Besides that lil flaw. App is GOLD

Make sure you get the beta version (or nightly if you like bleeding edge features that might be buggy and constant updates) because regular ff mobile doesnt support extensions. Also, the first thing you do after you install: go into settings privacy and turn off "Studies and data collection" otherwise mozilla will run remote executable code on your device and collect your data. One thing i dont like about firefox, they turn on remote code execution and data collection by default. YUCK!
