Version 157.0, first offered to Release channel users on September 29, 2026

New
-
Firefox's biggest visual refresh in years is now available, with a modernized look across the browser toolbars, sidebar, menus and individual features, built with our updated design system. It also includes:
- New built-in themes with light and dark versions, to personalize the look of Firefox in one click.
- A new compact mode that reduces toolbar and tab spacing to leave more room for web content, useful on smaller screens and in split-screen layouts.
- WebRTC video calls can now use hardware AV1 decoding on devices that support it, instead of always decoding AV1 video in software.
- Firefox now shows a warning in the site information panel (the shield icon in the address bar) and in Settings when it has been set up to record its encryption keys, which could let other software on the computer read encrypted web traffic.
- Firefox Suggest now offers suggestions in the address bar in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. They can be controlled in the Firefox Suggest settings. Learn more.

Fixed
- Fixed video from phones and tablets appearing sideways or upside down in WebRTC calls.
- Fixed the address bar searching for the typed text instead of opening the selected suggestion when a page was still loading, such as shortly after Firefox started.
- Fixed some HDR videos encoded in 8-bit color formats looking dull and gray on Windows instead of displaying in HDR.
- Improved audio and video synchronization when repeatedly changing the playback speed of videos, for example on YouTube.
- Fixed the Vertical Tabs sidebar not reappearing when the cursor moves to the edge of the screen in full screen mode.
- Fixed an issue on Windows where making a video full screen would leave the Windows taskbar showing over the video.
- Various security fixes.

Changed
- Pressing Tab now moves focus straight to the text field of the address bar and search bar instead of stopping on the search engine button first. The button can still be reached with Shift+Tab.
- Amazon is no longer included as a built-in search engine. It can still be added as a custom search engine in the search settings. Learn more.
- The updated sidebar is now enabled for everyone. Anyone still using the previous sidebar will keep a similar layout, with the panel switcher at the top of the sidebar. Additionally, the “Show sidebar” option has been removed from Settings.
While we continue to refine the new design, the previous sidebar version can still be restored by setting sidebar.revamp to false in about:config. This also turns off vertical tabs. The preference will remain available until the end of 2027.
- Web page alert(), confirm() and prompt() dialogs, the color and date pickers, and form autocomplete drop-downs now match the page's light or dark color scheme.

Enterprise
- You can find information about policy updates and enterprise-specific bug fixes in the Firefox for Enterprise 157 Release Notes.

What is a progressive roll out?
Certain new Firefox features are released gradually. This means some users will see the feature before everyone does. This approach helps to get early feedback to catch bugs and improve behavior quickly, meaning more Firefox users overall have a better experience.
- Firefox now shows how many trackers it has blocked in the address bar, making built-in privacy protections easier to see while browsing. The count can be hidden in settings without turning off tracker blocking.

New
- Firefox Settings features a brand-new look with streamlined organization, clearer groupings, and improved navigation for easier customization.

Version 151.0, first offered to Release channel users on May 19, 2026

New
- Firefox Home (New Tab) has a fresh, new look and feel. The layout and design will enable upcoming features, from widgets to shortcuts improvements, launching between 151 and 152. Included are some new and exciting Wallpapers, such as the one below. Use the pencil icon in the lower right to check them out.

- Private Browsing Mode now allows you to instantly clear all data from your current session without closing the entire window. When you select the End Private Session button (the fire icon) to the right of the URL bar, Firefox will ask you to confirm to clear your session. Once confirmed, it will wipe all of your private browsing data and open a fresh new Private Browsing Mode session for you.

- Firefox now strengthens protection against fingerprinting in Standard Enhanced Tracking Protection, making it harder for websites to track you across sites by limiting the amount of information revealed about your device and browser. This reduces the number of users uniquely identifiable by common fingerprinting techniques by an average of ~14%, and by ~49% on macOS.
- You can now merge multiple PDFs directly in the Firefox PDF viewer.

- The Translations page (about:translations) is now accessible through the More Tools section of the Application Menu.
- Local Firefox profile backups are now available on Linux in addition to Windows, and you can restore them across platforms.
- On macOS, URLs copied from iOS devices using Apple’s Universal Clipboard now paste correctly in Firefox.
- On macOS, dropdown menus on web pages now use the native macOS menu style, matching the look and behavior of the rest of the system.
- Address Autofill is enabled for users in the Netherlands.

Fixed
- Fixed incorrect screen resolution reporting to websites in multi-monitor setups.

- Extensions and Themes installed in a Firefox Desktop profile directory will be restored successfully after the profile directory is moved or restored to a different location or a different operating system.
- Geolocation on Windows now respects the user's Windows location permission setting, instead of overriding it, when the user grants location permission to a page. Firefox will ask users to enable the Windows permission if it is needed.

Enterprise
- You can find information about policy updates and enterprise-specific bug fixes in the Firefox for Enterprise 151 Release Notes.

Developer

Web Platform
- You can now manage microcontrollers that support serial communications in Firefox via the Web Serial API. This lets you program microcontrollers and development boards, such as ESP devices, Raspberry Pi Picos, 3D printers, CNC machines, and other devices. Web Serial can be used in Extensions, but not from moz-extension contexts at this time.
- Local network access restrictions are now rolling out to all users. Firefox requires websites to request permission before connecting to devices on your local network or to apps and services on your device. Previously, this protection was limited to users with Enhanced Tracking Protection set to Strict.
This feature is part of a progressive roll out.
What is a progressive roll out?
Certain new Firefox features are released gradually. This means some users will see the feature before everyone does. This approach helps to get early feedback to catch bugs and improve behavior quickly, meaning more Firefox users overall have a better experience.

- Logins stored in the Firefox Password Manager are now encrypted on disk using a modern encryption scheme (AES-256-CBC), replacing the older 3DES-CBC. This change improves local data protection. Logins synced through Firefox Sync remain end-to-end encrypted and already use AES-256-GCM.
- Visual search powered by Google Lens
With just a right-click on any image, you can now:
✨ Find similar products, places, or objects
✨ Copy, translate, or search text from images
✨ Get inspiration for learning, travel, or shopping
Look for the new “Search Image with Google Lens” option in your right-click menu (highlighted with a NEW badge at first).
This is a desktop-only feature, available worldwide. Your default search engine must be set to Google in order to use it.

- Perplexity AI Search in Firefox
On desktop, Firefox now includes Perplexity, an AI-powered answer engine built into the browser. Perplexity delivers direct, conversational answers to complex questions, helping you get quick summaries, accurate references, or creative inspiration without digging through multiple sources.

- <input type=color> now recognizes the CSS <color> format in addition to the color hex format (#ffffff). This means that color names like black and more complex strings like rgb(200 200 200) are now valid inputs. For now the value will always be converted to the hex format.
- Restrictions were removed that prevented setting the display property on <details> elements, and a ::details-content pseudo-element was added to style the expandable/collapsible contents of those elements.

New
- Vertical Tabs: You can now keep more — or fewer — pinned tabs in view for quicker access to important windows. Just drag the divider to resize your pinned tabs section.

- Custom Search Engines: Firefox now supports adding even more search engines. To add a custom engine, right-click a search field of a supported website and select “Add Search Engine”, or go to Settings > Search > Add (below the search shortcuts table) to manually enter a search URL.
- Firefox Extensions: Customize your toolbar with the option to remove the extensions shortcut, giving you more control over your browser. When the button is hidden, you can access the extensions panel again at any time from the Firefox menu by clicking the Extensions menu item.
- You can now unload tabs by right-clicking on a tab (or multiple selected tabs) and selecting "Unload Tab". This can speed up performance by reducing Firefox's memory and CPU usage.
- Full-Page Translations now prioritizes translating only the content near your current view, improving speed and responsiveness. Content outside your view is skipped unless you scroll to it, reducing unnecessary resource usage.

Web Platform
- Added platform support for aria-keyshortcuts in Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Added support for the CookieStore API, an asynchronous cookie API for scripts running in HTML documents and service workers.
- Added support for the Custom Highlight API, which allows styling arbitrary text ranges. Support for text-decoration is not included and is planned for an upcoming release.
- Added support for the pointerrawupdate event. This event provides lower-latency access to pointer movements by firing as soon as the pointer data is available, typically before the main pointermove event. Unlike pointermove, it performs an additional hit test to determine the target and fires more frequently, which may impact performance even if only a listener is added. This event is intended for applications that require high-precision input handling and cannot achieve smooth interaction using coalesced pointermove events alone.
- Service Workers are now available in Private Browsing Mode. This enhancement builds on our efforts to support IndexedDB and the DOM Cache API in Private Browsing through encrypted storage. With this change, more websites, especially those that rely on background tasks, will be able to benefit from Service workers.
- Firefox now applies a uniform user agent (UA) style to <h1> elements, regardless of whether they are used inside <article>, <aside>, <nav>, or <section>.

- The upload performance of HTTP/3 has been significantly improved, particularly on resumed connections (QUIC 0-RTT) and high-bandwidth and high-delay connections.
- Various security fixes.
Changed
- Due to recent changes in how Chrome encrypts user data on Windows, the Firefox migration wizard can no longer directly import payment methods or passwords from Chrome. However, users can still export passwords from Chrome to a CSV file and then import them into Firefox using the migration wizard or the password manager.
- The Review Checker feature is shutting down and will no longer be available after June 10, 2025.
Enterprise

Developer
- Based on user requests from both Mozilla Connect and Stack Overflow, the filter setting in the Network panel is now preserved across DevTools Toolbox sessions.

- Firefox Address Bar Refresh 2025 - new ways to search for things new, previously viewed, and more - all from the address bar:
Features
Unified Search Button: A new, easy-to-access button in the address bar helps you switch between search engines and search modes with ease. This feature brings the simplicity of mobile Firefox to your desktop experience.

Search Term Persistence: Now when you refine a search in the address bar, the original term sticks around, making it easier to adjust your queries and find exactly what you're looking for.

Secondary Action Buttons: Suggestions for common Firefox features.

Contextual Search Mode: Firefox detects if you are on a page that has search capability and offers that option for you to directly search with the page engine from the address bar. Use this option at least 2 times and Firefox will suggest adding the search engine to your Firefox.

Contextual Search Engine Options: Use a Contextual Search mode option at least 2 times and Firefox will suggest adding the search engine to your Firefox so that it’s always available to you.

Intuitive Search Keywords: You can access various address bar search modes with convenient and descriptive keywords (e.g. @bookmarks,@tabs,@history, @actions).

What is a progressive roll out?
Certain new Firefox features are released gradually. This means some users will see the feature before everyone does. This approach helps to get early feedback to catch bugs and improve behavior quickly, meaning more Firefox users overall have a better experience.
- HTTPS is replacing HTTP as the default protocol in the address bar on non-local sites. If a site is not available via HTTPS, Firefox will fall back to HTTP.
- HTTPS DNS records can now be resolved with the operating system's DNS resolver on specific platforms (Windows 11, Linux, Android 10+). Previously this required DNS over HTTPS to be enabled. This capability allows the use of HTTP/3 without needing to use the Alt-Svc header, upgrades requests to HTTPS when the DNS record is present, and enables wider use of ECH.
- Added support for multiple languages in the same document spoken in macOS VoiceOver.
- Address Autofill is now enabled for users in France and Germany.
Fixed

Web Platform
- Added support for querying the encryption key system config in mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo() API.
- Added support for Float16Array typed arrays along with new DataView methods for reading and setting Float16 values, and a Math.f16round() static method that can be used to round numbers to 16 bits. The new type is useful for sharing data with a GPU, in particular for use cases where it makes sense to trade off precision for memory consumption.
- Added support for @starting-style. This at-rule allows to define styles that are applied to an element when it is first rendered, enabling transitions on elements that are added to the DOM or that have their display type changed from none to another value.
- Added support for the transition-behavior CSS property. This property allows us to create a transition on discrete animated CSS properties.
- Added support for the textInput event. This is a non-standardized API, however it is implemented by some web apps that use legacy libraries or frameworks. Please keep using beforeinput when developing new web apps.
- Added support for DNS lookup of HTTPS Resource Records (RR) with the native DNS resolver, increasing HTTPS coverage and facilitating the use of Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) if present in HTTPS RR.

Enterprise
- You can find information about policy updates and enterprise specific bug fixes in the Firefox for Enterprise 128 Release Notes.
Developer
- CSS rules specificity is now displayed in a tooltip when hovering a CSS rule selector in the Inspector Rules view. This can help web developers understand why a given rule is applied before another.

- The Inspector panel now flags a custom property declaration as invalid when the value does not match the registered custom property definition. As shown in the screenshot below, the declaration of a custom property, --b, expecting a <length> value syntax (e.g., 10px), is instead used with a color specified. An exclamation icon appears next to it with a tooltip explaining the error.

- Improvements have been made to Inactive CSS. A warning is now displayed when column-span is used on elements outside of multi-column containers and when properties only applying to replaced elements are used on non-replaced elements.
Web Platform
- Resizeable ArrayBuffers and Growable SharedArrayBuffers are now supported in SpiderMonkey. This allows the size of an ArrayBuffer to be changed without having to allocate a new buffer and copy data into it.

- Links and other focusable elements are now tab-navigable by default on macOS, instead of following macOS' "Keyboard navigation" setting. This is a more accessible default and matches the default in all other platforms. A checkbox in the settings page still allows users to restore the old behavior.
- The Screenshots feature in Firefox has gotten a big update! It now supports taking screenshots of file types like SVG, XML, and more as well as various about: pages within Firefox. We've also made the screenshot tool more accessible to everyone by implementing new keyboard shortcuts and adding theme compatibility and High Contrast Mode (HCM) support.

This is heavily used on sites such as Facebook.
- Catalan is now available in Firefox Translations.
- Enabled AV1 hardware decode acceleration on macOS for M3 Macs.
- Telemetry was added to create an aggregate count of searches by category to broadly inform search feature development. These categories are based on 20 high-level content types, such as "sports,” "business," and "travel". This data will not be associated with specific users and will be collected using OHTTP to remove IP addresses as potentially identifying metadata. No profiling will be performed, and no data will be shared with third parties. (read more)
- NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution (“VSR”) is now available in Firefox. RTX VSR enhances and sharpens lower resolution video when upscaled to higher resolutions and also removes blocky artifacts commonly visible on low bitrate streamed video. VSR requires at least a 20-series or higher NVIDIA RTX GPU, Microsoft Windows 10/11 64-bit, and NVIDIA driver version R530 or higher. The feature can be enabled in the NVIDIA control panel.
- NVIDIA RTX Video HDR is now available in Firefox. RTX Video HDR automatically converts SDR video to vibrant HDR10 in real time, letting you enjoy video with improved clarity on your HDR10 panel.
