Firefox on iOS Gains Safari-Like Adjustable Search Bar

[AgeOfSpiracles]

It says a lot that the position of a search bar on some third party software is headline news on MacRumors?

I honestly think they post all the search bar news just to trigger the folks who get unreasonably angry about it and can not help but comment.... boosts engagement, lol.

Still no Adblocker… the internet without Adblocker is unbrowsable.

For years Firefox for iOS had the refresh button at the bottom of the screen. Which I loved. It wasn't until recently that FF got rid of that refresh button at the bottom of the screen. That is why I am back to using Safari. I love the refresh at the bottom. Much easier for me to use. And I like the address bar at the bottom now as well. Took a bit of getting used to but I will keep it at the bottom as long as possible.

Been using Firefox on my surfboard and can't be happier

We couldn't care less about firefox. I loved the first mozilla, then firefox when I use to have linux as a main OS. But as a MacOS user, safari is a satisfying experience. Light, fast, simple.

You would if you beta test. It’s a good alternative in case Apple changes something that was working fine to a issue which occasionally happens with Safari betas. This update applies to iPadOS also, not just iOS.

What makes a browser "fun to use" exactly?

Well, chrome has that T-Rex game. Maybe it has StarFox?

Why?

Because Apple just sucked all the air out of the room with a giant product drop and event.

I use Firefox Focus on safari for their ad-blocker. Works well.

I imagine then that that creates a response from someone who can't resist explaining everything.... thus boosting engagement even further.

It says Apple's design philosophy continues to influence.

Design is a fashion not a philosophy.

And then a snarky retort from one above it all.
