Firefox Home is a free application that works with Firefox Sync to give you instant access to your Firefox desktop history, open tabs and bookmarks on your iPhone or iPod Touch. What’s more, it provides Firefox’s “Awesome Bar” capability that enables you to get to your favorite web sites with minimal typing.

Features

When connected to your Firefox Sync account, Firefox Home will give you access to:

• Awesome Bar Search of your open tabs, bookmarks and browsing history. Need those directions to that restaurant you were just reading about on your desktop? The confirmation code for your flight? Just start typing in the search bar and those pages will be right at your fingertips.
• Direct access to the tabs open on your desktop copy of Firefox. You can pick up where you left off with access to the tabs open on your desktop.
• Direct access to the bookmarks on your desktop copy of Firefox. Does it drive you crazy to have to enter the full URL for a website you know you have bookmarked your desktop? Now you don’t have to. All your bookmarks are right here.
• Search the web. If a website isn't in your bookmarks, history or tabs the Awesome Bar will search the web for you.
• End to end security. All your data is encrypted which ensures that only you have access to it. See, Firefox Sync data is secure - Find out more
