Description

Get the people-first browser that’s backed by a non-profit.

It’s a new era in tech. Don’t settle for a browser produced by giant, profit-driven, data-hoarding tech companies. Firefox is the obvious choice for independent, ethical tech that respects your privacy and gives you more ways than ever to tailor your internet experience exactly the way you want it. Download Firefox now for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Firefox is backed by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation, whose mission is to ensure the internet remains a global public resource, open and accessible to everyone. When you make Firefox your go-to, everyday browser, you’re also joining a unique (serious nerd cred) community that’s actively helping to diversify the way people experience the internet.

Firefox is extremely private for a reason — and the reason is you.
We want you to have an amazing experience every time you use Firefox. We know feeling safe and secure are foundational for enjoying your time online. Since version 1 in 2004, we’ve taken privacy seriously, because we’ve always been in the business of valuing people first, over everything. When you care more about people than profits, privacy naturally becomes a top priority.

DIFFERENT DEVICES. SAME TRAIN OF THOUGHT
Now you can search for things on your laptop, then pick up the exact same search on your phone and vice versa. Your Firefox homepage displays the most recent searches you’ve done on other devices so you can easily get back to what you were doing or thinking about.

LIMITED-EDITION WALLPAPERS
Introducing limited-edition wallpapers from independent creators. Stick with one you love or switch it up anytime to make Firefox match your mood.


STREAMLINED HOME SCREEN
Pick up right where you left off. See all your open tabs intuitively grouped and displayed along with your recent bookmarks, top sites and popular articles recommended by Pocket.

PRIVACY CONTROL IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES
Firefox gives you greater privacy protection while you’re on the web. By default, Firefox blocks trackers and scripts such as social media trackers, cross-site cookie trackers, cryptominers and fingerprinters. In addition to Apple’s Intelligent Tracking Prevention, setting Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection to strict blocks tracking content in all windows. Also, you can easily choose to search in private browsing mode. And when you close private browsing mode, your browsing history and any cookies are automatically erased from your device.

GET FIREFOX ON ALL YOUR DEVICES
Add Firefox across your devices for secure, seamless browsing. In addition to synced tabs and searches, Firefox makes password management easy by remembering your passwords across devices.

FIND IT FAST WITH FIREFOX’S SEARCH BAR
Get search suggestions in the search bar and quickly access the sites you visit most. Type in your search question and get suggested and previously searched results across your favorite search engines.

ORGANIZE YOUR TABS THE WAY YOU LIKE
Create as many tabs as you like without losing track. Firefox displays your open tabs as thumbnails and numbered tabs, making it easy to find what you want quickly.

SHARE ANYTHING IN A FEW TAPS
The Firefox web browser makes it easy to share links to web pages or specific items on a page with easy, quick access to your most recently used apps.

Pretty Good

Firefox for iOS (like it’s counterpart for windows and macOS) is not perfect but it’s still pretty decent, when it everything is going well. It has a lot of potential to be the only browser needed.
However, recently the performance of the app on iOS 16 has been lacking with specific things like closing tabs feeling quite sluggish. Still it I s nice that it syncs well with other devices using Firefox, but the iOS app seems to almost be another browser due to some (lack of) UI/UX customization options and performance issues. Maybe this is a reflection of the limitations of developing on iOS and its various requirements & restrictions.
I think I will still keep using Firefox for now until I can find a better replacement (for mobile iOS/windows/macOS).

ダブルタップで拡大されるのをoffにしたい

メインはChromeを使用していますが、Chromeではタブをスライドで消せなくなってしまってから、サブとしてこちらを使うようになりました。
その当時(2年前くらい?)はトップページにブックマークを表示できたので、割と使いやすいという印象でした。

が、いつぞやのアプデでトップにブクマ表示ができなくなり、それでもAndroidではできていたのに直近のアプデでAndroidでもできなくなり…
ブクマ周りの機能が非常に使いづらく、そこだけで言えば星1つです。
(※ブクマについての不満の詳細はレビュー最後に追記しておきました。)

それに加え、ダブルタップで画面が拡大されてしまうので、ブラウザゲームで連打する際に非常に不便です。なので、連打が必要なイベントの際はSafariを使用しています。
ダブルタップで画面拡大は、設定でonoffできるようにしていただきたいです。

表示速度も速いとは言えず、むしろChromeやSafariよりもっさりしていると感じる場面も多いです。
(最近、やたら速いブラウザアプリを発見してしまったので、その差が顕著になりました。)
これに関しては、Syncにログイン中の同期が原因かなと思い、ブクマなどを同期した後でログアウトして常時同期ができない状態にしたら若干解消したような気がしていますが、何が邪魔をしていたかは定かではありません。

画面更新のボタン表示が画面下の真ん中に常にあるのはとても有難いです!
評価できるのはそこと、タブがスライドで消せるところぐらいでしょうか…。

私はサブのブラウザアプリとして使用しているので今でも使い続けていますが、メインのブラウザアプリとしては「頑張りましょう」という評価です。

この意見が開発陣のお目に留まれば幸いです。
頑張ってください。

※追記:ブクマについての不満の詳細
厳密に言えば、トップのライブラリーにブックマークの表示(星マーク)はありますが、それを押すと「ブックマークメニュー」「ブックマークツールバー」「未整理のブックマーク」「モバイルブックマーク」と4つのフォルダ表示があり、続いて「最近追加したブックマーク」なる項目があり、その下に最近追加したらしいブックマークがズラーっと並んでいるのです。
…違う、そうじゃない。そんな表示は求めていません…。
4つのフォルダ表示はまあいいとしても、続く項目はよく使う「モバイルブックマーク」か、直近で選んだブックマークフォルダの表示になるべきでは?

結局ブクマを選ぶのにはワンアクション余計にかかるので、必然的にライブラリーの上に表示される「よく見るサイト」の活用を余儀なくされます。
「よく見るサイト」を便利に使うには、トップに表示させたいサイトの数に応じて「よく見るサイト」の表示行数を設定し、トップに表示させたいページを訪れた際に「トップサイトにピン留め」という設定をすればいいのですが、欠点が3つあります。
タイトルの編集ができない(URL表示になってしまう)ことと、順番を入れ替えることができない(長押しなどで直感的に動かすことができない)こと、表示行数が4行まででアイコンが最大16個までしか並べられないことです。

タイトル編集については、アイコンが表示されているためどのサイトかは分かるので、そこまで問題はないかもしれません。
ただ、キャッシュクリアでアイコン表示が真っ白になってしまうので、私はキャッシュクリアする度に「トップサイトにピン留め」をやり直すという面倒な操作をしています。普段、キャッシュクリアは頻繁に行うほうなのですが、おかげで気軽にキャッシュクリアできなくなってしまいました。
そして、特に順番を入れ替えることができないのはとても不便です。

やはり以前のように、自分が選んだブクマをトップに表示できる設定、よく見るサイトを非表示にできる設定など、トップを柔軟にカスタマイズできるシステムに戻していただきたいです。

Because we want to continue to use it.

I don't see anything wrong with the functions we have now.

Switching search engines is just one tap away. No lag in syncing between accounts. The preferences are very detailed, and the transmission to other devices is also very good. Above all, trust in the handling of personal information.

However, I think the following two points make it difficult to use, so I can't give it 5 stars.

1,I would like to be able to move the pinned shortcut icons on the home screen by sliding them.

→It is simply difficult to use, and the shortcuts are fixed in order from the newest one, so if you pin them casually, the shortcuts will not come to the position you want.

2, When tabs are open, I would like to be able to switch between normal browsing mode, private browsing mode, and synchronized tabs with a slide.

→I don't switch frequently, but that's why it feels like a hassle to tap the top of the screen when I occasionally want to switch.

※But please don't remove the ability to slide out a window!

These are the difficulties I personally feel, but conversely, since these two points are the only noticeable shortcomings among the numerous features. I think the ease of use of fire fox when eliminated is outstanding.
