Meanwhile, on the iOS version, they can't even support the OS-provided content blocker API, meaning Safari has better support for privacy-related add-ons than Firefox.

- newscracker 3y agoIf you’re fine with a single tab browser, Firefox Focus [1] comes with a built-in content blocker.
- Knee_Pain 3y agoFirefox Focus is so poorly thought out. How can you have a content-blocking browser that only allows one single tab at a time? It happens so many times that while browsing an ad-heavy page an ad gets opened in a new tab (since Firefox fails to block it), but since it's a mono-tab browser it simply replaces the one I was browsing.
- nabakin 3y agoYeah, well, if iOS didn't force everyone to use the Safari engine, maybe the situation would be better
- Daedren 3y agoYou can’t use the App Store Safari extensions on webviews. They’d have to add their own content blocking list, much like they did with Firefox Focus.
- nfriedly 3y agoI never got why Firefox Focus was a separate app? I want the ad blocking from Firefox focus and the tab switching in history and whatnot from the regular Firefox on iOS. But, mostly, I just use Android so it doesn't really matter.
