Download Mozilla Firefox 21.0 Beta

Spread the love

As we are used to from Mozilla, the first beta release of the next version has already appeared shortly after the release of a stable version of the Firefox web browser. Version 21, which should be released on May 14, will include improved Do Not Track options and Firefox will suggest ways to reduce boot time. WebRTC will also become available, which will allow voice and video calls and p2p file exchange, among other things, without the need for separate plugins. Below is the provisionally incomplete overview of the improvements that we can expect in version 21.
