Firefox Home Approved, Available in App Store
Now, if we could just sync our Chrome contacts, we'd be all set...
We've covered the beta and approval process, so it was only fitting that we announce that Firefox Home has been approved by Apple and is now available in the App Store.
Not a standalone browser, the app is actually an extension of Firefox Sync (formerly known as Weave), which allows you to synchronize your bookmarks, tabs, history, and even the Awesome Bar across browsers and now devices. Firefox Home allows you to bring a decidedly supplemental Firefox experience to the iPhone.
The downloadable app is available now in the App Store. And it's free.
