Hi,

There used to be recommended sites when opening a new tab which I believe belonged to Pockets. I really enjoy this feature on my Desktop FF. On Android it disappeared with a major release sometine this year. I was hoping this feature would be reintroduced since FF can monetize on their Ads as well. Current installation is v.82.1.1

Regards.

Hi arjay

Thank you so much for your question.

You may already have a "top site" shortcut on the Firefox for Android home page to https://getpocket.com/fenix-top-articles which has some great recomended content. If not, you can add it to the Top Sites by opening that link in Firefox for Android, selecting the menu and then "Add to top sites" from the options that appear.

There are more updates planned for Firefox for Android that will bring exciting and useful new features. Included in this are outline plans for more Pocket integration so please keep your copy of Firefox for Android to see this when we have it ready for people to use.

In the meantime, you may wish to try the Pocket Android app, available from the Google Play store. If you have a (free!) Pocket account, you will be able to share articles from Firefox to Android to read later in the Pocket app, as well as discover new content that we hope you enjoy.

I hope that this helps.
