Hello,

In the address bar, Firefox Focus shows the dumbed down URL. For example, it shows "mixer.com" instead of "mixer.com/current_channel". I find it frankly insulting for my intelligence, as if the "/" character would be too much to handle for my little brain. How do I get Firefox Focus to always show the full URL (without having to press the address bar)? I couldn't find such an option. Also, why is there no "about:config" special page, like in every other Mozilla product? I feel like Mozilla is confusing "simplified" with "dumbed down" in this particular instance.

Hi

Firefox Focus is designed as a lighter weight browser, with an emphasis on privacy. If you are looking for more configuration options and features, I recomend you try Firefox for Android which is available from Google Play.
