Firefox Home lands at the App Store
Quick Share:
A wave of happiness has ran among the Mozilla folks as they have gotten exactly what they wanted – an Apple approval for the Firefox Home. The browser sync app is sitting pretty at the App Store and is available as a free download for the iPhone and iPod Touch users.
The app which happens to be the first app submitted by the Mozilla folks got approval within 15 days of its submission. Here is what this app does:
Firefox Home keeps track of your Firefox History and bookmarks which enables it to open all the tabs you opened on your PC.
To be able to use this app, you first need to install Firefox Sync add-on on your PC or laptop which will take your browsing history, bookmarks and passwords over the cloud in a secure manner and this is the spot from where Firefox Home will do its magic . Then download the app from App Store (link provided below) and login with your Firefox Sync credentials.
