Hi

I might be able to help with this.

  1. In Firefox for Android, select the menu icon (three dots)
  2. Select Settings and then General
  3. Select Home and then Set a Homepage
  4. Select Custom and enter https://news.google.com as the address

You should now find that when you open Firefox for Android you will see the Google News headlines.

I hope this helps.

Hello ,

You can have updates about the top sites below the screen on your devices by ( tap menu button (top right corner) , then settings , tap to General , and then Home and then Top site) (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/customize-firefox-homepage) you can visit this for more information.

Or else ,you might want to custom create something to totally suite your needs, if that is the case I would suggest you start here : https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-for-android-addons

Best of luck.
