Saving sites-difficult

Privacy appears to be working well. I am having trouble saving/bookmarking sites I go to often. Also, I have not found a way to delete saved sites no longer used.

DO NOT ALLOW ADS THAT WONT CLOSE

This needs to get fixed or I just switch browsers

So much for privacy

Google tabs on iPhone in Firefox Focus app. Kiss your privacy goodbye…

Liars! This App Does Not Block Ads!

Firefox browser says it will block ads but youtube ads are not blocked. Brave browser doesn’t lie and truly blocks all youtube ads and is still the best browser for privacy. Period.

Want “Bookmarking”? Then do-this… • A Thank you! 🕺👍

Thanks Firefox, for ‘Firefox Focus’ being here with me! I love it, need it, want it to stay. Thanks to you All.
Happy joyful wishes, everyone there, and to all of us here!
Many Cheers! ※\(^O^)/※

Want “Bookmarking”? Then do-this…
- Find the webpage you want in the app.
- Then ‘’tap’ the web address-bar shown at screen top and then, when you SEE “Add Shortcut” — ‘tap’ that.
- So, whenever you open the app or if you ‘tap’ into the address-bar, the page view will be cleared and you’ll ‘see’ your visual-bookmarks.
Wishing you happy thoughts! Happy planting of those seeds-of-thought…

Awesome platform

But could use a lot of updates almost going back in time using this. And you need more open on Firefox page, 3 doesn’t cut it! But other that I love Firefox and will always use it

7-2-1977 having trouble with opening my rewards on American spirit app. When I try to open my rewards or coupons it’s saying it opens better on portrait mode or not able to open on desktop or cannot open on phone or tablet??? I’m not tech savvy so please help me with what to do. I already wikid’ it but no bueno?! My steam is blowing hard!!!🧖‍♀️😤♨️


Aug 2026 I just found out they have a partnership with Google. But still pride yourself and advertise privacy exclusive search engines!? I’m sorry but I feel that anything with Google is private or secure. 🔐🕵🏻‍♀️🥸

Nearly Perfect Performance

Aside from 1 or 2 Quirks, Firefox Focus Runs Smoothly. i Do Note a Bug with Sharing YouTube Links.
Unless you go Directly To the Video you wish to share, Much Of the Time, it will Simply Share the YouTube home page instead.

While i experienced 1 or 2 similar instances on other sites, it was Mainly YouTube where that Was most Noticeable.

[August 2026 Update]
I REALLY, REALLY Wish They Would Put The “Trash Button” Back Where It WAS.
They Swapped The Location Of The “Reload Page” Button & “Trash Button”

Or AT LEAST Give Us The Option To Customize The In-App Interface.

Needs bookmarking

Love this browser

Simple and effective

safari extension?

i love this app so much. i am encountering a problem turning on the safari extension. when i go in my phone's settings for safari there's no checkbox for firefox focus.
otherwise love this app 100% 6 stars

Avoid at any cost.

Firefox Focus and its Safari extension are disappointing for users who already use a reputable privacy and security solution with system-wide ad, tracker, and malware blocking. (Read, for example, a good VPN).

Focus mainly adds another overlapping layer of content blocking while still lacking the feature I actually want: a proper HTTPS-Only mode that automatically upgrades HTTP connections to HTTPS or blocks insecure HTTP. Its protection is limited to supported browser content and cannot guarantee that all ads and trackers are removed.

For users without any other protection, Focus may offer some useful tracker blocking. But for people who already have comprehensive device-wide security and privacy filtering, it feels largely redundant and not worth the extra app, configuration, and potential website breakage.

Mozilla should provide meaningful HTTPS enforcement and functionality that complements existing security tools instead of duplicating them. Until then, I cannot recommend Firefox Focus or its Safari extension, and I’ll be warning others about these limitations.

Maybe 5 star

I’m not educated on search engines but it seems safe to me

Best browser for privacy

This is the browser I always use. I’am not against showing advertisements but the way capture more information about you etc

Idéal une vision de l'informatique sans favoris

Vos signets sont exploités comme vos listes de contacts. Votre workflow ce disperse entre applications au logiques opposées. Pour quoi ne pas s'isoler d'un web pollué pour n'en garder que le surf assisté par IA. Et placés vos liens de références dans vos notes ou gestionnaires de connaissances.
L'idée ou une app ne laisse au web qu'un ping après la page tournée et la philosophie. Pour cela Focus est Roi.

“Open and erase”

I am getting worn out from opening my phone only to discover that Firefox is once again telling me to open my phone and erase Firefox content. This started happening about six months ago and hasn’t stopped.

If I cannot get this to stop, I will have no alternative but to cease using it, trash it, and find something else.

Opt out of billionaires

Great browser to opt out of billionaires selling your personal data so they can buy more and bigger boats and arm ornaments

Quick view

It's a really safe browser that gives you one safe tab to browse and doesn't let any ad or tracker or abusing cookie bother you
Better experience than private or incognito mode

Great browser

One thing to note: you can’t have more than one tab at a time :(

こんにちは。
余りブラウザ用途では使っていません。
iPhoneアプリ、Safariの拡張機能の目的で使っています。

ブロック出来る内容が増えたり、使う者が、設定を細かく変更出来る様になれば面白いかも知れません。

以上です。
暑い中ありがとうございます。

Hello.
I don't really use it as a general-purpose web browser.
I use it primarily for iPhone app functionality and Safari extensions.

It would be interesting if the range of blockable content expanded or if users could customize the settings in greater detail.

That is all.
Thank you for your work during this hot weather.

Adding a follow-up note:
iPhone 12, iOS 26.6.1
Firefox Focus 151.3.1 (72936)

When the Safari extension setting is enabled, I am unable to log in to the website of the major company Mercari (jp.mercari.com).

Quote:
"Please check your internet connection and try again."

This message bubble appears, and I am unable to log in using either a phone number or social media accounts.

The browsers used were:
Safari and Firefox Focus.

When using a different browser (Opera), the message bubble did not appear, and I was able to log in successfully.

I may be contacting the wrong party, but I wanted to report this issue.
