1. 5/5Liked this until it starts to be buggy

   I really like the concept of this browser and have been using it as my main browser for a long time, and I have been liking it. However, recently a core function, back button, which is essential for such a browser without tabs, starts to stop working very often. When the back button is hit, it will display a blank page. In this blank page, refresh button won’t make the page render either. The only two ways are (1) go forward to the previous page where we go back, and go back again, chances are it will load properly (no promise); (2) if it doesn’t work, have to copy the url, close the current page and paste the url to reopen it (if this is a one time link, then bye bye…). This is super annoying and I am trying to find the report bug button. Couldn’t find a way… so frustrating

2. 5/5Love It && Developer Request

   Thank you for this app! The privacy part of it is nice and is why I originally got the app, but I set it as my default browser and it has really helped me be intentional with how I organize my browsing. It actually does help me stay focused. There is one thing that frequently drives me crazy. This app (and others) hide buttons while scrolling. However, many websites have a paywall popup that locks scrolling once a certain point is reached. When this happens the back button and navigation bar are hidden. The only thing that can be done is to shutdown the app and restart. The main feature of this app clashes with this work around because everything is erased. This is particularly insidious when filling out forms. I understand a little bit about web APIs and understand it could be a difficult fix (not sure if it’s even possible on iOS) but it would sincerely make a big difference for users! Thank you for all your hard work at Mozilla!

3. 3/5No Extension & Suggestions

   1) The app shows that there’s a Safari extension included in the app, but when I go to my Safari settings in my iPhone settings I see zero extensions whatsoever for anything. 2) there needs to be the ability to open multiple windows because sometimes when I go to one page and have it is difficult to navigate back across the login pages to any of the previous pages I was looking at. 3) please please make it possible to bookmark pages. Even when I try to share or copy a link, it doesn’t always share the correct link… especially if it’s from the same website and I’ve navigated to a different part of the website and I’m trying to copy or share that link. It always tends to share/copy the original page link I opened or the previous page’s link. I can’t figure out how exactly it is determining what link it is copying/sharing but it is not doing so with the link for the page that I am actually on. 3) I would like to be able to close the app without losing the content that I was looking at. Sometimes I have to close it to do something else or because somebody has come over and it’s impossible to find where I was or what I was reading. 4) I appreciate that you don’t update your app all the time like most apps do. If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it is my motto. but there are a few tweaks that need to be made without actually changing anything to do with the way the app otherwise currently works.

4. 5/5Best Privacy App with relevant Search Results

   I've used them all. The new updates to this one made it so the cursor is automatically in the search box so you can just start typing or talking. The browser is super fast and only once or twice have I been on a website with a captchya or something that didn't show up so Inhad to switch to the phone's default app in those rare instances. Everything else has displayed fine including videos, images, and live streams. Browse all you want, as soon as you navigate away the screen goes dark on app until you make it full screen again. So ifbyo were flipping through your open apps, nothing shows until you select the app. Hit the "Erase" button to simply delete browsing history whenever you want, although it does the same thing automatically whenever you close the browser. The only thing I don't like about it is the same thing I don't like about most mobile browsers: DEVELOPERS PLEASE INCLUDE THE TOUCH EQUIVALENT OF CONTROL+F in future updates. There's nothing more annoying than being on a website that you chose for a specific search result and then being unable to find the relevant info quickly because of mounds of condensed text in the mobile format. I like to find info fast, not read entire books online on mobile sites. Would be great to be able to SEARCH BY KEYWORD OR PHRASE FOR RELEVANT INFO WITHIN A WEBPAGE on this app. Still give you 5 stars because No One else offers this level of privacy and convenience with awesome search results, and like I said I can't find an app anywhere that does all this with the FIND WITHIN A PAGE function.

5. 2/5Recent update made it unusable

   Update3: Dev have responded with a generic boilerplate “here is the support link”, which requires account creation. “Contact developer” also goes to a generic help page about how to install and configure the app. Feels like my issue was not acknowledged and that robot is responding to these reviews. Update2: after recent UI changes gave it a try and found that issue is there doubly so. Whenever a site tries to do full screen messages (say Paywall notification) Firefox frame becomes inaccessible. Can’t use it. Multiple examples. It’s a JavaScript issue likely. Update: Devs have responded and I have updated to the latest version, and problem persists. It’s less often now, and I don’t have a recent example. Will update the review later. Still not usable. Was a happy user for a while, as now I can’t access the navigation bar after I open the page. Page works and scrolls well, but I can’t see the entry box, or back/forward button no matter how much I scroll up or down. Kill the app, open another site and same issue comes back. Too bad.
