Firefox Focus Simply private mobile browsing. A new feature checks your add-ons to see which ones you installed and which ones come from third-party vendors, such as security suite makers.
The browser will now ask you if you'd like to disable any of these third-party add-ons. Interface The menu bar has been squished into an orange button on the upper left, with menu options spread across two columns. Performance Firefox is built on top of the powerful new Gecko platform, resulting in a safer, easier to use and more personal product.

On mobile too, Firefox is not the first choice for users, as it is not pre-loaded or default on most smartphones. Firefox users also face issues while performing multiple functions. For instance, downloading and browning on different tabs sometimes results in the browser being hung.
Also, the Firefox program consumes a lot of space and memory, making the overall performance of the operating system slower at times.
Google Chrome is a preferred browser over Firefox since most consumption of content has moved from desktop to mobile, and in Android mobiles, the Google Chrome browser is pre-installed. Also, Chrome allows for syncing across devices and accounts and is extremely well integrated with Google apps.
Firefox falters here because mobile users prefer to use a pre-set Chrome or Safari. Unlike Google Chrome, which is fully integrated with the Google Search engine, Firefox is not a search engine but simply a browser, and Google is the default browser. Earlier, the default engine was Yahoo, but it has now switched to Google. The popularity of Google Chrome ensures that most websites are made to accommodate the browser and are designed to work optimally on Chrome, and some websites are not compatible with Firefox.
Even though Firefox has a better UI than Safari, the default settings of a Safari browser on mobile phones ensure that it is used more frequently than Firefox.
There is also Internet Explorer, which is pre-installed in Windows as the default browser, but it is common knowledge of how slow and heavy the browser is to use. Firefox took over the browser market from Internet Explorer way back in the early s, so it is safe to say that Firefox is any day preferred over Internet Explorer. Firefox is an easy to use web browser, with a good UI and add-ons that enhance the experience of browsing. However, Firefox is not a prefered browser for mobiles, and with an exceedingly mobile centric approach to developing content and websites, it has fallen behind Google Chrome, which has taken the larger market share.
With integration and compatibility issues, Firefox is soon becoming the less preferred option for users.
