## Changes

- [Added missing Gecko icons/branding assets](90e371ec7c).
- Added a toggle in settings that forces the browser to *always* use private mode *(similar to Firefox on Desktop)*. The setting is *disabled* by default, and is located at `Settings` -> `IronFox` -> `IronFox settings` -> `Privacy` -> **`Always use private browsing`**.
- [Disabled Mozilla's new `Unified Trust Panel` by default](2eaa0c7c9a), as it prevents users from being able to control the cookie banner blocker on a per-site basis.
- [Enabled Mozilla's new redesign for private browsing mode](43661d10a7) by default.
- Fixed [an issue with `BankID` authentication](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/issues/213) on certain websites *(Thanks to [rajtsic](https://gitlab.com/rajtsic)!)*.
- [Removed Mozilla's new `Clear Key` CDM](f9a0a07793).
- Updated cbindgen to [`0.29.2`](https://docs.rs/crate/cbindgen/0.29.2).
- Updated to Firefox [`146.0`](https://firefox.com/firefox/android/146.0/releasenotes/).
- [Various tweaks to improve and refine the build process, as well as other minor changes, tweaks, and fixes](https://gitlab.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox/-/merge_requests/109/diffs).

IronFox Nightly vs. Release

This page serves to document deviations between standard IronFox (Release) builds and Nightly (CI) builds.

Deviations

  • IronFox Nightly uses a different mozconfig build file for certain branding elements.

    • The mozconfig branding file for Release builds can be found here.
    • The mozconfig branding file for Nightly builds can be found here.
  • IronFox Nightly uses the package ID: org.ironfoxoss.ironfox.nightly.

    • IronFox Release builds use org.ironfoxoss.ironfox.
  • IronFox Nightly does not reset the value of devtools.debugger.remote-enabled on launch.

    • This preference controls whether remote debugging is enabled. On Release builds, it is reset on the browser's launch, to improve privacy and security.
    • On Nightly builds, remote debugging is still disabled by default, but, in order to allow easier testing/troubleshooting, the preference will not automatically reset.
