Hi

Thank you for your question.

Firefox does not have it's own voice search capability, but this is something that may be included in a future update. The voice input uses Google to convert voice to text, but this article will help you to change the search engine the result is sent to.

here is another problem. I have about 40 widgets or links to google sites from everything to weather, news and more on 3 screens on my cell. I click on one at it takes me there by Google. Am I going to have to change each one to now save with Firefox so it opens with Firefox? I guess I can change 5 a day and be done with it in 8 days but still is there simple other way. Thanks for our reply to my first question.

Hi

Do these shortcuts have a small Chrome icon on the corner of them? If so, then yes, you will have to manually move them across.
