Kit represents a new chapter for Firefox and we're excited to share it with you. If you’d like to share your thoughts or join the fun, feel free to comment down below!

Thanks 🙌

Hi, that's beautiful

I have a question: will there be a new Firefox browser icon and a new logo?
Thank you

The latest logo is already very nice, it feels unneccessary to make a new one. But a new browser icon of kit is very much neccessaryyy.. 😍😍 and for the pc too.

And would it be nice to have kit wallpaper that can move around like in that landing page. A new moving animate wallpaper.

I was wondering what that new wallpaper was doing 😄

Kit is very cute! I saw the new wallpapers are available on desktop, will mobile (android) get some new wallpapers featuring Kit too?

I know a lot of people might not want this (and that's fine); but oh my god, I want Kit to be interactive! X3

I wanna be able to scritch their ears, feed them cookies (whether they're internet or chocolate chip is up for debate) and just... have them be an adorable scritchy, smooshy fren :3

Kit is absolutely adorable! 😍 I love the idea of interactive wallpapers too—scritching their ears or feeding them cookies sounds super fun. It would make Firefox feel even more alive and personal. Can’t wait to see what other Kit-themed surprises are coming!

Hi Jon! 👋 Love the new mascot, Kit! The design feels fun and approachable, and it’s exciting to see Firefox embracing a fresh, playful identity. Can’t wait to check out the wallpaper and Kit-themed swag. It’s great to see the community getting a first look — thanks for sharing! 🦊✨

What a refreshing update! Kit feels like the perfect symbol for Firefox - approachable, curious, and full of energy. Great work, Mozilla team!

Is the image just a symbol or does it represent the characteristics of an animal?

I'm not a fan of the newer designs, the vaguely fox shaped gradients certainly are not my thing and thanks to the Linux magic I'm using the classic icon. But it doesn't hurt the UX and doesn't use up development resources so I'm not complaining too much

... Well, why something so vague and even further removed from a real fox? Where is the mouth? Why are there jowls on the sides? There is no snout.

... Bof, pourquoi un truc aussi flou et encore plus éloigné d'un vrai renard ? où est la bouche ? Pourquoi ces bajoues latérales ? le museau est inexistant.

Very cute mascot. When will we be able to use new Kit wallpapers in iOS app?

I love kit! The designer did an amazing job

cute! are there kit stuffed animals we can order?

Hi Jon, thanks for the update on the cute new fellow 😊

I immediately ordered the new shirt (and an ugly Christmas sweater) from the Mozilla merch store and unfortunately, I need to give some negative feedback in the hopes that it reaches the right ear.

Long story short, immediately upon arrival I decided to return both items. The Spreadshirt print quality is really bad. Not only does it look like it will come off rather quickly, some parts of Kit are already missing pieces of paint. I love the idea of Mozilla and Firefox merch and I've been a user and fan since my first encounter with Firefox v1.0 but the quality from spreadshirt is neither worth the money nor a good representation of the quality work Mozilla does.

My suggestion, talk to the people over at gametee how they make their shirts. Their quality is absolutely amazing. I own this shirt below among others and the print quality still holds true after many years and lots of wearing / washing.

Thanks for you hard work!

Hi Jon,

Kit is adorable! I really like the fresh vibe it brings to Firefox. The wallpaper and Kit-themed swag are a fun touch too. Can’t wait to see Kit become a part of the everyday Firefox experience!

By the way, I run a site about driving simulators (bussimulator-apk.com), and this kind of clean, friendly design always inspires me for UI ideas too.

Kit is super cute and I love the New Tab wallpaper feature!

will there be browser themes?

Re: Introducing Kit—your new companion through the web

fsheheclack — Tue, 16 Dec 2025 08:32:11 GMT

I like Kit; It's just cute! I'd love an interactive wallpaper and a new Firefox logo that, one, features Kit, and two, replaces the purple Earth with a blue Earth like in the old logos.

This looks like the kind of thing a 'get on the bandwagon' organisation does when they're about to push more slop into their product. The minimally representative pop art resemblance of a fox-like 'mascot' just screams you're about to put this as the face of an unwanted AI slop-bot

Ok... What about a "blue cybernetic" version for Firefox Developer Edition and a "purplish" version for the Nightly release?
