No worries, I most definitely could have phrased it a lot better.
Having the feature then losing it is even whackier. 🥴 Especially I’d think their focus would be android users and making sure it’s up to date/functioning for them.
I hope Apple will relax the rules on web browsers in order for Firefox to use their own engine instead of WebKit. New EU laws will put more pressure on Big Tech.
That is odd. Firefox Nightly at least has an Add to Homescreen option to put a shortcut to the current URL on your homescreem. Then you could put that icon where you want it.
Agreed, but they are both one tap to take you to your desired homepage. Only difference is there is no Home button in the app. Not sure why Mozilla would leave that out. There is always the extension route, that is one thing I’ve always liked about Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/home-button-for-ff-on-android/

Wait, I can change my homepage URL on iPhone. I find it hard to believe that’s an option exclusive to iPhone.
Edit: it’s at the bottom of the settings>homepage tab

Sorry, I didn’t mean “I can’t believe” as in “I think you’re lying” but “I can’t believe” as in “what an absurd feature to leave out on android”.
