Firefox 29 is Available for free Download with a complete new Design and features

After many years of the same design, Firefox finally decides to launch a new version with a complete redesign. The new version of Firefox (number 29) has a lot of changes that will make users (maybe) leave chrome to use Firefox's new browser.


When you download the version 29 the first change you will notice is the design which is like Google's popular browser Chrome, it seems that Firefox will build its next browsers on Simplicity in fact to bring more users who search for Simplicity-Speed-Security.

Theme and Personalizing

It's noticed that this version is the most version from Firefox that get a complete redesign, so now the browser has:

• Rounded tabs not Square (similar to google Chrome): In the most of the past versions of Firefox if not all, the company used the same Square tabs but the time change and now it's "Rounded Tabs" Time!.

• The menu that contain tools, bookmarks, new tab... is now 3 lines (which make me remember Chrome :p): the company remove the orange button from the left-corner and replace it with the 3-lines button in the Right-Corner as you can see the next image

• Firefox now allow its users to personalize their browser as they like, and you can do this by dragging any feature and put it next to the search bar to use it faster.

The point of the redesign is to adapt the design to how modern users engage with the web,” Mozilla VP for Firefox Johnathan Nightingale said 

Firefox users will be able to customize their browsers like changing the theme as they like
