Hi, I'm trying to switch between my default Android browser from Chrome to Firefox and after a few hours I'm already missing few options that I've got used to. It's not a huge turnoff, but I was wondering if some of you may know how to achieve this on ff.

1. Tab grouping seems to be a lot more useful while browsing on a mobile device. It just nice to have possibility to group all of similar tabs in one bigger tab.

2. Once the URL bar is selected, Chrome, automatically offers to share, copy or edit URL. Maybe I'm just lazy, but ff browsing experience would be a bit better if that one extra step could be skipped.

3. While online shopping, Chrome has an really cool option to quickly convert currency just by selecting the price. This way you don't have to loose additional time to convert price to your local currency.


There are some extensions which claim to provide those capabilities, but they are only available for a desktop versions.

Hi

Thank you for your great questions, I hope I can help.

In Firefox for Android, we do have a tab groupings option - we call it Collections. When viewing a page, you can open the menu and add the tab to a new or existing Collection. These can be found in the home screen and can be sent through Firefox Sync to open on your desktop.

Long pressing on the address bar allows you to copy a URL and a two brings up a cursor to edit it. To share an open page, you currently have to open the menu, but this may be something we revisit in the future.

The currency conversion is Chrome leveraging their link to Google, but it may be something we can support with an add-on in a future update.

I hope that this helps.
