Looking for an alternative to Firefox Focus?Compare Opera Mini, DuckDuckGo Browser, Safari.Compare alternativesFirefox Focus is intended for short browser sessions on Android and iOS. You will open a website without the extensive organization of a full desktop browser and can quickly delete your session. Built-in protection limits different forms of tracking.
Focus fits well with links you want to look at without keeping them in your regular browser history. For a large set of tabs, extensive synchronization or a complete working environment on your computer you need another browser.
Compare Firefox Focus with alternatives
For your phone, operation, supported operating systems and data retention are more important than a long list of desktop functions. A browser that quickly erases sessions is less focused on a permanent archive of tabs. Data compression can save on traffic, but it also changes the way pages are loaded.

Our verdict
Firefox Focus has a clear goal: you want to look up something and then clean up the local traces of that session. The limited interface fits well with that. You don't have to manage all kinds of settings or tab groups before opening a separate link.
As a fixed browser for everything, Focus is less obvious. You just miss a part of the permanent organization that is useful for long-term browsing. Therefore, use it next to your regular browser. Remember that erasing is mostly about data on your phone; it doesn't make what you do on a logged-in website invisible to that website.
