Firefox Focus is a browser with no tabs, ads, or trackers. As Mozilla says,
its an alternative for those super quick searches you want to keep separate
from your main browser. Today, its receiving a redesign with a brand-new
update.
With version 38, Firefox Focus now has a new minimal and distraction-free
design. Not only that, the browser brings the ability to pin up to four
shortcuts on the home screen.
The update also brings super quick browsing with ad blocking and tracking
protection as well. With that, users get much faster page load speeds. The
app also blocks a wide range of trackers by default, including social
trackers and those that come from things like Facebook ads. In a
<https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/news/news-from-firefox-focus-and-firefo
x-on-mobile/> blog post, Mozillas team explains a bit more about this
update:
We added a fresh new look with new colors, a new logo and a dark theme. We
added a shortcut feature so that users can get to the sites they visit the
most. And with privacy in mind you will see the privacy Tracking Protection
Shield icon which is accessible from the search bar so you can quickly turn
the individual trackers on or off when you click the shield icon. Plus, we
added a global counter that shows you all the trackers blocked for you.
Firefox Focus has gained a lot of attention thanks to its minimal design and
streamlined features. With just a tap, you can erase all your browser
history. Not only that, its possible to block the app using Face ID or
Touch ID.
In this blog post, Mozillas team also lets people know that
