Isn't that just because iOS rules mean Firefox is just reskinned Safari? Or do Apple allow other browser engines now?

That’s what people keep saying (and yes, only in the EU are alternative browser engines allowed), however other browsers on iOS can create a decent browser experience. A few things that aren’t supported on FF iOS, that IMO should have been available a long time ago and stops me from using FF anywhere as I want syn mobile with my desktop browser:

  • Rearrange icons (web site shortcuts) on the FF Start Page. Also, not synced
  • Very limited custom search engine settings (no search suggestions supported, very few search engines to choose from)
  • No auto close old inactive tabs
