    Niceee, Firefox Android needs more attention. It’s such an underrated browser. It’s non chromium, search bar on bottom by default, uBlock Origin, https-only mode, cookie banner reduction (soon), the best reader mode of all browsers, and addon support.

      For me it’s the ability to install extensions. I can’t browser without the dark reader extension. If I look at bright screens for long time, I get a headache and won’t get sleep

        Wish it were as easy to use as Samsung Internet browser dark mode. You can enable/disable with just 2 taps: settings > enable/disable.

          I don’t even have to do that. Dark Reader on Firefox is synced to my system settings. So my dark mode is set to a timer, which automatically turns it on, including Dark Reader.

          Also Samsung Internet buttons & layout can be customised, you can have the search bar on top or bottom and most importantly? There is a “tap to go up” feature. It’s one feature I sorely miss switching from IPhone :(

        I found it unexpectedly appealing on the bottom, but good to know you can move it up! Extra point for Firefox.

      Can I log in to my Google account though, in the actual browser? Firefox is fantastic,l and those features are amazing, but I keep all my browsing, bookmarks, and so on in one place, my Google account.

      I need to be able to look something up on my pc or tablet etc which all run chrome, and be able to find that quickly on my phone by typing into the address bar, etc.

      I don’t usually care much about integrations but this one is too convenient to give up.

      And I suppose, thinking about it, it would have to support multiple profiles too, because I have my personal Google account profile in Chrome, then my work Google profile, etc. Different sets of bookmarks and settings and so on for the different needs.

        Firefox has its own syncing system via a Firefox account that’ll sync your bookmarks, open tabs, history, logins, etc…

        Firefox on desktop does support multiple profiles, but they are nowhere near as convenient as Chrome’s which is just a few clicks.
