'''What is it?''' Under the covers, the Browser app becomes part of the System. This means that browsing can be done by clicking the Browser icon or just through accessing the universal search and navigation capability. Apps and browsing tabs are unified to a common experience and exist in the task manager and sheets view (for edge gestures). | |||

With the new search and navigation bar, I can get to my favorites, type in a URL, or discover a new app, from everywhere. The search bar lives at the top of the screen, and I just tap or swipe to open it. Think of it as the unification of the Awesome Bar from the browser and the adaptive app search from the homescreen. And because Firefox OS uses web apps, when I find what I want, even if it’s a new app, it opens right away. I don't need to install anything. Everything is instant and web-like. | '''What is it?'''
