Firefox Browser for iPads

New Browser from Mozilla for Ipads

Apple fans disappointed with their browsing experience could soon have a Safari alternative from Mozilla. Mozilla has taken the wraps off a new version of its Firefox browser that it has been designing specifically for the Apple iPad, dubbed “Junior,” that the foundation says “makes browsing more fun, more ergonomic and re-thinks browser user experience from the ground up.” While this sounds ambitious, the development team at Mozilla seems to have really created a browser that’s unique to tablets rather than just simply porting its browser over from desktop or mobile platforms.





Junior is immensely simplified compared with most browsers because it only has two buttons that are strategically placed right where the average iPad user’s thumbs go. The “back” button performs the standard back function that’s crucial to any browser while the “plus” button opens up a new screen that gives users the opportunity to enter in a URL manually, go to a recently-viewed site or go to a bookmarked site.
The reason for the simplified browsing experience is that Mozilla wants its tablet browser to take advantage of the entire tablet screen without clogging it up with tabs and search bars. And yes that means that Junior doesn’t have the on-screen tabs that have been a longtime Firefox staple, but Mozilla thinks that tabs on a tablet screen are just taking up space needlessly.
The team was quoted at the presentation that"Junior Firefox for iPad "app will definitely “make browsing more fun, more ergonomic and re-thinks browser used experience from the ground up.” The team of developers said it’s more than just another browsing experience it’s the Junior Firefox for iPad ultimate browsing, that can totally be disassociated with desktop computer and or even other mobile platforms.
Junior Firefox for iPad is simply easy to use, with only two buttons to click or tap with and voila, browsing is never going to be the same again. The browser deletes the problem of filling up the iPad screen with multiple tabs and search bars which makes it a lot of hassle for a small screen.
The information about iPad launch timelines for the Junior Firefox for iPad Mozilla is developing for Apple iPad has not been officially announced but iPad developers are surely excited with this innovation and the planned release. The Apple Safari browser now has a competition which, when time comes would be tested whether it’s iPad suitable or not.
Other than Mozilla, Google will soon create a similar mobile operating system (iOs) version of Chrome which could be a potential competitor to Junior Firefox for iPad in the future.
