But when it comes to privacy and data protection it is not that promising, That’s why some people prefer Firefox over Chrome. Back in July 2019, Mozilla had announced that Firefox for Android will enter its maintenance phase as the team had begun work on an entirely new browser. Mozilla launched a browser named “Firefox Preview.”

Firefox Preview was then released in the form of a public preview so that interested users can try the new browser.
