We will also phasing out support for Gingerbread users with no further updates available after the this release. Our improved content model will take further shape by migrating the reading list to the Bookmarks panel. We finally bring push notifications to Android. Another delightful engagement feature are content notifications for infrequent bookmarked web content. Many of our users take screenshots of web content and will therefore provide the ability to save screenshots within the app to help users revisit  content quicker. We continue our support of progressive apps which includes notification to add frequently visited websites to the home screen. Firefox 48 will also better protect users from malware in downloaded Web files by alerting users when a download is Potentially Unwanted or Uncommon.
|50 || Nov 8, 2016 || || Firefox 50 will see the release of our first Windows e10s sandbox and increase the e10s eligible population by supporting more add-ons. It will also feature new UI for insecure password submission.

This release augments the Firefox for iOS app with several usability and security improvements. New users benefit from an updated list of popular web sites available on the home screen, which are easily removable. We provided autocompletion for most-popular web addresses so the user can quickly find the websites they are looking for with less typing. The browser now handles all links to Apple Maps and many third-party applications like Twitter. To keep users' passwords safer, the option to access logins through Passcode/TouchID has been introduced.
