When you install an application on an iOS device, some functionality may be restricted by the operating system. In order to access these functions, applications ask for specific permissions. For each permission, a brief description is included to explain what it can be used for. To install an app, you must acknowledge that you're aware of what the software is capable of by giving iOS your permission. For example, when you visit a website that requires a specific function, such as taking or uploading a picture or finding your location, iOS will ask you for permission before it performs that function.

Firefox Focus functions and permissions
When an application needs to access any function or permission, you will be notified and prompted to accept or decline the request. Declining permissions only affects the specific feature or web page you are currently using, it does not block the remainder of Firefox Focus’s functionality:
- Your location (GPS location): GPS location is used only when you choose to share your location with a website. This does not share your location with Mozilla and Firefox. Focus never shares it with a website without your permission. Learn more about Firefox Focus's location controls.
- Location (GPS): Websites you visit may request your location. Focus only uses location when app is in use.
- Take pictures and videos: When a web page asks you to upload an image, you may choose to take a picture with your device's built-in camera, but you need to grant this permission first. If a site wants to use your microphone for communication, you may choose to allow that too. A website using WebRTC may request this permission.
- Camera Usage: This lets you take and upload photos and videos.
- Photo Library: (Save/Upload): This lets you save and upload photos.
- Microphone: This lets you take and upload audio.
- Face ID: Users can protect their saved login information either with a passcode or by using Apple’s biometric authentication. If a user opts to turn on FaceID, this permits authentication without Mozilla saving the password locally or remotely.
