The Mozilla team announced the global release of Firefox FX 157 update for desktop and mobile platforms. This update marks the implementation of newly designed code that was previously tested in the Nightly channel.
The developers have completely redesigned the visual design of tabs, toolbars, new tab pages, and incognito mode to make the interface more modern and cleaner. One of the main news for users is the long-awaited return of Compact Mode, which allows you to have less control and free up more usable screen space. Additionally, the browser offers more theme choices, new wallpapers, and advanced tools for organizing shortcuts.
The company emphasized that the massive redesign does not affect the project’s key principles: Firefox remains independent and open software, with an emphasis on privacy, built-in protection from trackers, VPNs, and flexible control of AI capabilities.
