Noteworthy changes / Bug fixes
New
- It is now possible to edit PDFs: including writing text, drawing, and adding signatures.
- Setting Firefox as your default browser now also makes it the default PDF application on Windows systems.
- You can now pin private windows to your Windows taskbar on Window 10 and Windows 11 for simpler access. Also, private windows have been redesigned to increase the feeling of privacy.

- Text Recognition in images allows users on macOS 10.15 and higher to extract text from the selected image (such as a meme or screenshot).Extracted text is copied to the clipboard in order to share, store, or search—without needing to manually retype everything.

- “Firefox View” helps you get back to content you previously discovered. A pinned tab allows you to find and open recently closed tabs on your current device, access tabs from other devices (via our “Tab Pickup” feature), and change the look of the browser (with Colorways).

- With the launch of the “Independent Voices” collection, Firefox is introducing 18 new “Colorways.” You can now access a “Colorways” modal experience via “Firefox View”; each new color is accompanied with a bespoke graphic and a text description that speaks to its deeper meaning. The collection will be available through Jan 16.
