It\u2019s the browser for people who want their online life to be lighter, not more data consuming. To be faster, not bogged down with resource-hogging advertisements, behavior trackers, and third-party clutter. Focus makes sure nothing gets between you and the sites, entertainment, information, and web tools that you use everyday on your phone and mobile devices.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t tried it yet, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/mobile\/\">check out Focus<\/a> and download something simple by design.<\/p>\n<h3><b>But Simple Doesn\u2019t Mean Plain<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>No, not at all. Focus includes a strong set of features you need, without all things you don\u2019t. More details about those features can be found here in <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/blog\/2017\/12\/13\/firefox-focus-adds-quick-access-without-sacrificing-users-privacy\/\">our product blog<\/a>, but we\u2019ve also called out the five biggest things you should know about our most recent version of Focus.<\/p>\n<p>(You can also watch the latest in our <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/F9bouLLkRNY\">Focus What\u2019s New video<\/a>!)<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b> Ad Blockers Turned On By Default<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There\u2019s no need to dig deep into your preferences and plugins or other settings. Focus has ad-block technology active by default, so it\u2019s ready to go right after the download.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><b> A Faster Mobile Web Experience<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Because Firefox Focus blocks third-party ad trackers, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mozilla.org\/firefox\/tracking-protection-study\/\">you may notice a speed boost<\/a> on sites that track your mobile behavior, whether you\u2019re checking scores, tracking packages, or searching restaurants and movies.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><b> Auto-Complete Created By You, For You<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Add your own favorites to the autocomplete list, making Focus a lot quicker to type into.
