Mozilla has been working on revamping the address bar for a while. Now, that redesigned address bar is finally live on Firefox’s Nightly branch.
Mozilla has released a new version of
Firefox Nightly featuring significant updates to the address bar, in an attempt to revamp the browser’s user experience. The changes, according to Mozilla, focus on improved search functionality, intuitive navigation, and increased security.
One notable addition is the Unified Search Button, allowing users to effortlessly switch between search engines and search modes directly from the address bar. If you need to slightly tweak your query, search refinements are made easier with Search Term Persistence, which retains the original search term while allowing for modifications.
