I love Firefox Focus on iOS and use it everyday. It&#x27;s the &quot;anti-tabitis&quot;, &quot;rinse and repeat&quot;, private browser. I load up a few sites, one after another (no tabs), read some stuff and then hit &quot;Erase&quot; to clear everything! It&#x27;s definitely a &quot;focus&quot;ed experience for me (excuse the pun).<p>Even on iOS, it could do with some improvements, like responding to standard screen swipe gestures for back&#x2F;forward, adding a share sheet to make it easier to export the current URL, etc. This may just be my experience alone, but it also feels slower and &quot;heavier&quot; (battery wise) than Safari.<p>In case &quot;tabitis&quot; sounds unfamiliar - <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.urbandictionary.com&#x2F;define.php?term=tabitis" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.urbandictionary.com&#x2F;define.php?term=tabitis</a>

Ad block preloaded is a nice feature. Was having issues getting OperaMini setup properly. Mozilla Focus has a build set ready for use!
