- kingofpandora 8y agoI only have FF installed on Android and don't have any issues.
- esotericn 8y agoCan't say I've ever had an issue. Do you have an example?
- cpburns2009 8y agoIt's not that bad. Having an ad-blocker is a godsend. Chrome does feel noticeably faster on Android but the ads aren't worth it.
- enitihas 8y agoI think firefox android user experience can be improved in a lot of cases by simply setting the User Agent to chrome. I have found that this works very well with a lot of sites. For example, doing a google search for any sports league gives you a nice interactive table with matches and standings in chrome, but with firefox the table lacks any interactivity. However, setting the UA to chrome makes the table work very well. Also, I feel firefox consumes less battery than chrome on Android. I used to use chrome exclusively, and it would always show up as the largest consumer of battery. After switching to firefox battery life has been much better.
- rwmj 8y agoI wonder if this could be considered anticompetitive (in the legal sense)?
- meddlepal 8y agoReally? Such as? I love Frefox on Android and have not noticed any issues, but I also admit I really don't do a lot of web browsing outside the handful of websites o care about.
- cmroanirgo 8y ago> using Firefox on Android is an exercise in frustration It seems strange to say, but my experience is the opposite. Because my Android Chrome experience was so bad, I went looking everywhere... and FFox was the answer.
