Remember Firefox Focus<\/strong><\/a>, Mozilla\u2019s privacy-based web browser? Well, it has finally made the jump over to the Android operating system after making its debut on iOS devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For the most part, the Firefox Focus experience on Android<\/strong> is very much the same as the one that can be found on iOS devices. Firefox Focus for Android<\/strong><\/a> retains all of the features that makes the browser a great alternative such as the ability to block ads, analytics and social trackers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Also, in the Android version of Firefox Focus is the ability to disable the custom web fonts<\/strong> on a website to make web browsing even faster, as well as an Erase<\/strong> button that lets you wipe your browser clean on-demand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In addition, Firefox Focus for Android now comes with a reminder notification that lets its users erase their browsing history without even needing to be on the browser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
