Photon Project on Mobile

Firefox 57 is going to look and feel very different. The New Firefox Quantum, feels faster and actually loads faster too. To reflect all of the amazing changes that were subtly happening behind-the-scenes, we wanted to update the user facing side of Firefox too. …

Things I learned working on Firefox Focus

We launched Focus as a free content blocker for Safari on iOS back in December 2015. The idea was to bring control back into users’ hands. We wanted to let them dictate how they wanted to spend their browsing data, even if they weren’t using Firefox. About a year later…

This is our Reading List

“So… what’s it for?” Saving content on the web is pretty easy nowadays. You can Bookmark it, email it to yourself, or save it to Pocket. But no matter what you choose, your intentions are similar. In Firefox 38, we added a menu item that lets users save any webpage…

UX thoughts for 2016

And just like that, another year. A year goes by pretty quickly. Before long, I’ll be sitting here again feeling like 24 hours isn’t enough. So it’s always good to have a vision for where you want to go next. The details matter, and so do the larger things. It’s all equally important. Sometimes it’s easy to get lost in it all. So I think this is a good opportunity to step back, recognize the work we’ve done, and what we’ve achieved — as a team.

Designing helpfulness

Being there, without being annoying Do you remember Clippy? Yup, that on-screen Microsoft Office assistant that would always ask you if you wanted assistance. In many ways, it made sense. Through the context of an action you just took, Clippy shows up on screen, and offers other related actions. But…

Share to… Firefox?

You may remember this from such share intents as “Add to Firefox” Perhaps an awkward concept to consider at first, but I think it’s definitely worth it. It’s important to give users a meaningful way to continue their Firefox experience, even if they’re not in Firefox. (Doesn’t that sound familiar?) …
