Isn't Mozilla supposed to be fighting for users online privacy? Well it's ironic that Firefox for iOS doesn't even have basic privacy settings, like block cookies and turn off javascript...

And what is up with the sync feature, bookmarks seems to be read-only and the sync tabs features doesn't work. No matter how many tabs I've got opened on my phone, private browser for not... Firefox for OS X always display no open tabs.

I saw people posting about the bookmars several months ago? Is the browser abandoned, no longer in development... Becasue the whole Firefox for iOS is still new excuse can't be used for ever.

Chosen solution

  • The next version should be released in the next few weeks, and it will have two-way bookmarks sync.
  • I don't know of any plans to include a setting to block cookies
  • Blocking JavaScript is a checkbox that was removed from the desktop version of Firefox, so I doubt it will be implemented in the iOS version.
