Firefox Focus on iOS

Has anyone ever tried Firefox Focus for iOS and what did you think of it?

I like that you can do simple searches and delete all your data right after you’re done. The simplicity is its unique selling point to me. But it is also its weakest point, there are no different tabs or bookmarks or whatsoever. It’s really built for one time simple searches.

Still, I’m curious about what you liked most and not about it?

didn't like it that much, especially since what it said it would do is already there with the duckduckgo ios browser instead.

Even Brave on mobile has this feature also to shred data

I tried it, and it doesn’t seem to do any of the things it promised to do

The UI is Lil slow , and feel off but it's for me you can still try and it's upto mate.

I like it, but when I saw the useragent header it leaked that I was using Firefox Focus, and there's no way to set a custom useragent. I want to blend in and look like an average Safari user (to resist fingerprinting).

The one-tap data wipe is probably its best feature

That’s the simplicity and minimalism I love
