* To make sending feedback EVEN EASIER, if you take a screen shot (whilst within the Firefox for iOS app, of course!), this will automatically be attached to an email and add ios-feedback@mozilla.com as the recipient. Put in a few more lines of text as to why that screenshot was noteworthy and hit ‘send’. Easy!!
