Gecko on iOS 17.4 and newer in European Union

[vuurvos]

As browsers with alternative engines are now allowed on iPhones & iPads due to the DMA in the European Union, I would like to request that a Firefox version with the Gecko engine be developed or released as soon as possible.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

Gecko and Add On support would be amazing. I’m still waiting for it 

[anyone_yun]

This would be great!

[okay_okay]

yes this would be great 👍

[TimeSplitter]

Agreed this is an absolute must!

I get that Apple´s rules suck big time and that Mozilla would have to develop two separate versions of Firefox on iOS but I still think that it is worth it!

Thumbs up.

gecko and plugins 🙏🏼

I thought Mozilla would be ready to update with gecko as soon as iOS is compatible …

This would be great for ios firefox extensions to finally work. I also really want tab groups on firefox.

Thanks for the feedback @cosmus50!

And good news about tab groups, we're currently working on bringing that feature to Firefox. We'll share updates on the progress in the thread here: Native Tab Grouping / More Customizable Tab bar

@cosmus50 @Nich I'm going to move your posts to the tab groups thread, so we can keep this one focused on the original request for Gecko on iOS.
