Firefox 20 private browsing

Firefox 20 has arrived with its version for Android correspondent. The improvements that we can see in the desktop version are interesting, such as the management of downloads and the enhancement of private browsing. However, in Android private browsing is released along with other details such as the ability to edit the shortcuts on the home page.

As a tenth, the most relevant improvement is the inclusion of private browsing. Now from the settings bar we can choose to open a tab with navigation in which we do not leave a trace of the websites we are visiting, no information is left in the cache, searches or cookies that are opened in the process. However, the downloads we make and the pages we add to our bookmarks will be kept.

The second notable aspect is the improved personalization. Now in that mosaic of frequent sites that comes out every time we open a tab, we can edit those shortcuts without having to wait for it to be modified naturally.

This is very useful if we work with a few common reference sites, although we also temporarily visit other websites with intensity.

Finally, support for hardware encoders for H.264, ACC and MP3 is added on devices with Gingerbread and Honey Comb, something essential for multimedia playback in the browser itself, such as Flash videos.

Lastly, changes have been made such as remove close button to follow the protocol set by Google. The browser compatible with less powerful devices. The requirement goes down to 384 MB of RAM; 600 MHz processor and 320 x240 pixel QVGA screen. This gives them the ability to be in devices that we would now consider low-end and quite outdated but that many users continue to enjoy.
