Mozilla will not come up with a iOS version


Because Apple has upset many people because of rules imposed on AppStore browsers, the guys at Mozilla were very fierce in judging the Firefox for iOS. 


Mozilla will not bring for the iDevice's a better version of the popular Firefox browser because of the restrictions that Cupertino imposes when it comes to  the decoding engine that third-party companies like Mozilla and Google are allowed to use . Basically, Safari will always have an advantage over iOS in terms of performance due to the Nitro engine, while all other browsers such as Chrome will be slower due to the web UiWebView decoding engine. Unfortunately, this distinction has existed since the first day in AppStore and no developer has managed to cheat the system.

In an interview a few days ago in the U.S., Mozilla vice president Jay Sullivan, attacked the problem all too clearly the problem of a Firefox for iOS. “Until Cupertino will relax its position on third browsers, Firefox will not come up with a version for Apple platform”. Simply because they want the browser or if you will ever get it for iOS to use the internal decoding engine IonMonkey, Firefox has a good chance of not getting in AppStore.

These radical manifestations come more than half a year after the browser from Mozilla, called Junior, arrived on Web clips using UIWebView. Back then, the explanation was quite different. “There are many reasons why we want to be on iOS, even if we can’t get there rendering engine.”

However, at present we have an explicit promise from the director, so I'm pretty sure that Firefox for is can’t be downloaded from AppStore for.
