Firefox mobile appearance on iOS
Why does Firefox mobile for iOS look different on my iPhone 13 pro max vs my wife's iPhone 12 pro max? both UTD on iOS version. I suspect that I must be missing something in settings, but cannot figure this out. See images below.
On my iPhone 13 Pro Max, the Firefox app has the nice home button, tab button, and hamburger menu button on the bottom (address bar on top both cases). On my wife's iPhone 12 Pro Max, it has the "+" for new tab, the 3 dots instead of hamburger menu, and then the tab button. I much prefer the layout on my phone, as does my wife, but I cannot figure out how to change her layout to match mine.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Very interesting--thank you so much for the reply/answer. I'll give this a try (reinstalling the app). I'm not sure how Mozilla is getting feedback re: these different UI's if not everyone is aware of the 2 different versions. I much prefer our version with the hamburger menu :)
Hello,
Please see How to opt out of studies on Firefox for iOS.

I tried deleting and then reinstalling on my wife’s phone but the less desirable layout persists. we both have the box checked (on/yes) for install and run studies. very frustrating and seems like a no-brainer to me that most folks would rather have the version on my phone with the hamburger menu.

Hi,
You'd rather disable studies if you want your browsers to look the same. Most of the studies are rolled out only for some small user groups, and you may just not share one.
I don't know, however, which of the variants is a default one ><
I'll definitely try disabling the studies on my wife's phone--afraid to do it on mine! Don't want to lose the good layout!
Thanks for all the info.
