Get the people-first browser 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 before 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 you do about 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 your most recent searches you’ve done on your 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 your 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, crypto-miners 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 so your browsing history and any cookies are automatically erased from your device.

SEAMLESS BROWSING ACROSS DEVICES
Add Firefox across your devices for secure, seamless browsing. In addition to synced tabs and searches, Firefox also 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 favourite search engines.

ORGANISE 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.

Pros and cons of Firefox: Private, Safe Browser app for iPhone and iPad

Firefox: Private, Safe Browser app good for

Firefox for iOS is great for everyday browsing. Only the tab management seems to be a bit lackluster. What I would like to see in the future: - Easier access to tabs; in safari, you have desktop-like tabs which makes it so much easier to switch between them. Firefox for iOS requires you to switch to the tab menu and then select the desired tab. For going back and forth between multiple tabs this procedure is frustrating. - Keyboard support (cmd + T to open a new tab, cmd + w to close the current tab etc.) But besides that: great job, Mozilla! :)
Still some issues requiring you to reload a page before Firefox recognizes a long press. Hoping 3D Touch support and support for your Focus content blocker arrives sooner rather than later!
I tried Firefox out of curiosity and was surprised by how much faster it is than Chrome. Very impressive!
Not bad little search engine thats finally on iOS :) good work guys
I hope youll implement 3D Touch when opening new tab or peek and pop links. Thanks
so firefox is instantly better than chrome because of add-ons but firefox is still a little slow but thats understandable because its new to ios... isnt it

Some bad moments

Only tested it for a minute. While scrolling links were opened unexpectedly. When browsing pages with embedded videos Spotify was always silenced because "play video" seems to be the default. Thats extremely annoying if one only wants to read news, videos should be optional then and thats how the same pages work with Safari.
Crashes and causes my iPad to freeze to the point of having to restart my iPad. I uninstalled for now and will try it again at a newer version
Needs to be fixed, full of bugs and too slow. Stops working each time I open the new windows; uninstalled finally.
Crash crash crash crash crash. Absolutely horrible. Unbelievable that Mozilla can make such junk.
Rather useless for what I need to use it for. Unless this is fixed... why bother?
this was a five star app; since the last (Jan.11/2016) upgrade it is sssssllloooooow i.e. it hangs up; if it works at all. I expect more from Mozzila. Going to delete FireFox at least for now - maybe go back to Chrome or....? sorry - it had to be said Impatient Searcher
