Firefox 25.0 - app

Firefox on Android is designed to provide a smoother web browsing experience on your phone.

How does Firefox look on a mobile?

The browser has a resemblance to Firefox for Windows, but it has an interface suited for mobile devices. For instance, pages can be opened simultaneously in the form of tabs, which you access by tapping the number icon next to the address bar. It's an intuitive way to control multiple tabs without filling the screen.

Like the desktop version, Firefox for Android also includes support for extensions, or Add-ons as they're known in this case. These allow you to power up the Android browser with more functionality.

What makes it different from other mobile browsers?

The variety of Add-ons is great to customize Firefox. Just like the desktop version, the variety of Add-ons can improve web browsing or add social media functions.

Other useful tools that are pre-built into Firefox for Android include a slick bookmarks manager and a start page that will show the top sites you have visited. Zooming in and out of pages has improved a lot since the early alpha release of Firefox. Now you can pinch to zoom, or double-tap for a quick in/out view, making page navigation effortless.

Another neat feature of Firefox for Android is its support for Firefox Sync. This grants you access to all the bookmarks, history and running tabs of the desktop version of Firefox, so you don̢۪t have to worry about entering addresses manually.

What's new in Firefox 25

The latest version of Firefox for Android includes a new guest browsing feature, which makes it easy to hand your phone over to a friend for them to use the Internet. Their activity will not affect show up in your own browsing history, meaning they can safely do what they want online.

Firefox 25 also includes support for web audio and now supports Romanian, Irish and Ukranian languages.

Firefox is a very good Android browser and it makes for a comfortable way to use the web on your phone.
