Mozilla Firefox Gets A New Look

A change in user interface of any application is always welcome if done properly. Keeping customer’s convenience in mind and new touch screen operating systems in use, so far many companies have implemented several changes to many of the popular applications. Now it is Firefox’s turn. Mozilla has just streamlined the user interface in Firefox browser. The revamped look of Firefox is quite brilliant and you will definitely love the same. The most often accessed options would be shown as favicon images and you will find many pinned tabs that you commonly use. You will find a toolbar on top, which has a customized set of icons and they will appear on the top left side of the interface. You need to simply press on the horizontal lines icon given there and this will open up the menu.

This browser UI project was called Australis and the new browser could be used on tablets, personal systems as well as phones. Thus, Australis truly gives everyone the best user experience. You will definitely love the curvy tabs on the new web browser and the frame around the web page is also different. The tabs that you are using will be highlighted when the others will not be. The graphical menu is also unique and it is more like an apps grid than the traditional list of options.

The first step of Australis was the regular testing, this was done with the Aurora version, the test proceeded with the beta version of Firefox, and at last, the latest Firefox version was released. Mozilla has worked very hard on the same as they wished to bring a new look to the browser keeping the browsing habits of the users in mind. We all saw this coming because all the browsers have underwent major changes for the touch interface operating systems and Mozilla is following the same.

According to Madhava Enros, leader of Firefox user experience design team, “It's a streamlining and simplification of the default interface, to declutter and better focus on how people use a browser today”.

Now if you have the old interface browser in your system, you need to try the new attractive interface in the new version of Mozilla Firefox. If you have any doubts regarding this, you may contact the Mozilla Firefox Help and support team online. The Mozilla Firefox Help and support team would give the download links for the new version.
