A nice trick with Focus on iOS is that you can set it to be the adblocker for mobile Safari. So, you install it, but don’t have to switch browsers to partially benefit from it.<p>There are apparently paid adblockers that route your web requests for all apps through a VPN. Personally, I’m not interested in any aspect of that last sentence. Filtering just Safari locally for free is good for me.<p>I’ve been against adblockers on the grounds that ads finance the content I want. But lately, ads and trackers have become so egregious on mobile that they, for practical purposes, prevent me from reading content at all. Either the content takes forever to load, or it jumps erratically around the screen for minutes or I’m put off from visiting a political or product related page because of the trackers.<p>With Focus, the web is usable again! Unfortunately, it’s not financially viable. I’m hopeful for the Brave browser for that. I’ll be trying it soon.

What changed? Why is this being posted now?

I&#x27;ve been using Firefox alongside Firefox Focus (Klar, since I&#x27;m from a German speaking country) for a few months now and I like the setup.<p>Focus is registered as the default browser on my Android device, so all normal links open up there. When I need to do something where I&#x27;d like to keep logins active (or something like that), I manually open up Firefox. The only thing that bothers me is that there are no tabs, so you can only have one session of Focus at a time.

Is there a real difference between Firefox Focus and Firefox Klar? Is use the latter for a while now (and love it) and wonder if I am missing something. Wikipedia tells me something about &quot;Klar&quot; being used in a german context because of the &quot;focus&quot; magazine ambiguity (which is kinda weird as this magazine didn&#x27;t have any relevance since forever). Edit: Ah... further reading in the german wikipedia revealed that the publisher of the magazine is partnered with Mozilla making the disambiguation a form of transparency I guess.

I have been using Firefox focus for a while and I have 2 main problems with it. The adblocker is worse than ublock origin (eg. try to google Kindle) and there is no simple way to use tabs. I still use it to open links, but a lot of the time I end up having focus open it on Firefox.

Is there any advantage of using this instead of the classic Firefox + uBlock?

Brave on mobile is by far the best browser I&#x27;ve seen so far.

I use Firefox Focus on my phone for most of my casual browsing. It launches and loads pages much faster than Firefox does. For some reason, Firefox insists on stalling for a few seconds before starting to load the web page whereas Focus does it instantly. I only use Firefox when I need session management.<p>I hope Firefox 58 improves the situation.

I use Naked Browser for my normal web browsing, nothing faster or cleaner, but all web links from apps go straight to Firefox Focus. Who knows where the obfuscated links are taking you?<p>It&#x27;s light and fast: great for my old phone.

It is far from fast and it is annoying to switch tabs. I used to use it initially, but I found the features a bit too restrictive so I uninstalled it.

That is surprisingly fast compared to standard Firefox for Android. Is there any downside to using this as the default browser?

Wasn&#x27;t there someone on HN a while ago saying that Focus was built on WebKit which makes it basically a Google thing?
