About Mozilla Firefox
Firefox is developed by Mozilla, a non-profit organisation. The Android browser includes tracking protection that blocks many trackers by default and supports add-ons, so you can add features such as an ad blocker.
Strengths
- Strong privacy settings out of the box.
- Add-on support on Android for extra features.
- Sync with the desktop version using a Firefox account.
Things to consider
Some websites are tested mostly in Chrome, so an occasional page may look slightly different. Only install add-ons from the official Firefox add-on site and check what permissions they request. Compare with Google Chrome to see which suits you.
Our take
Firefox is a good choice if you want stronger privacy by default and the ability to add extensions on Android. The trade-off is that a few websites are tested mainly in Chrome and may look slightly different. Install add-ons only from the official add-on site and check the permissions they ask for.
An everyday example
A user who often searches on a shared family phone uses Firefox's private tab for gift ideas, and knows that this only keeps the history off the phone, not hidden from websites.
Alternatives and related reading
Compare with Google Chrome. Pair it with Bitwarden for passwords.
Common questions
Can I use Firefox on my phone and computer together?
Yes, with a Firefox account you can sync bookmarks and tabs.
Are add-ons safe?
Only install from the official site, read the permissions and remove those you do not use.
