Firefox and iOS - is it compatible? It turned out yes

The whole problem has long been that the Apple leadership wanted to see browsers in iOS with a number of restrictions on the engine (browser engine - Webkit, rendering - UIWebView). Firefox never made browsers on Webkit, but the inconvenience was also that Apple itself used the faster Nitro engine. In 2013, for this reason, the Mozilla management did not plan to release a browser in iOS. Since iOS 8, the policy has softened somewhat - third-party developers are allowed to Nitro. The last year we received reports about the development of Firefox for iOS. 2 months ago, he appeared in the AppStore store for New Zealand. Now the test period has passed, and Firefox for iOS version at least 8.2 is available for installations around the world.

Browser engine - Webkit, others according to Apple policy are still unacceptable. Why is it needed for Mozilla? First of all, then, in order to be present on the platform, as well as provide the same capabilities for synchronizing tabs and settings for users as they have on other platforms when using Firefox. The Firefox ecosystem has expanded.

Apple AirDrop technology is supported (send links to Apple devices on the same Wi-Fi network).
IOS 9 supports incognito mode.

Like the regular Firefox code , the source code for the new browser is available for study and download.
