Revision Content

When you're in a rush, Firefox for Android lets you save articles in a clutter-free, reader-friendly view. Access your articles any time and anywhere an Internet connection is available.

Add an article to your Reading List

You can easily save a list of things you want to come back to and read later.

  • If you tap and hold the Reader View icon Reader mode in the address bar, the page you're on will be added to your Reading List.
  • If you're already in Reader View and want to finish what you are reading later, you can add that article to your Reading List. Just tap the screen to bring up the controls and press the add button to put the current article on your list.

If you can't see the Reading List panel, check your settings to make sure it's not hidden: in the Firefox menu, tap Settings, followed by Customize, then Home. Finally, tap Reading list and set it to Show.
Adding articles from other browsers: You can still add articles to your Firefox Reading List even from a different browser. See Share pages with Firefox from other browsers.
