Mozilla releases Firefox version 100 this week

Firefox released its 100th update, and a Mozilla blog post about the web browser was met with fanfare. Firefox 100 is available this week for both desktop and mobile.

To celebrate, Mozilla says it will regularly post Firefox-inspired fan art throughout May. But while that number 100 has some symbolic weight, the update itself isn’t particularly monumental.

That’s all for the new desktop features, but there’s more going on on the mobile side. First, there’s a new browsing history view. Mozilla says it has reduced clutter in this new history pane by removing duplicates and automatically grouping related items, such as multiple pages visited from the same search term. Now you can also search your history using the text field.

“Clutter”is also the name of the game for improving tabs on mobile devices. To help users who tend to leave tabs open for weeks with the intention of getting to them eventually, creating an unmanageable mess, Firefox will now automatically re-sort tabs you haven’t viewed in 14 days into the “inactive tabs”section.

There are also two new wallpapers for Android and iOS called “beach vibes”and “twilight hills”. Other changes include HTTPS-only mode on Android, prompting you to select a language on first launch, and expanding the credit card autofill feature (previously only available in North America) in the UK, France, and Germany.

Android got some of these features right away, but iOS should get them by the end of the week, Mozilla says.
