New Interface For Firefox Mobile Nightly Version 22

I don't deny I love living on the edge when it comes to software like Firefox. There's something cool about saying "Haha, I saw it first!" And seeing what new surprises await.

I updated my Nightly version of Firefox today to find they seem to have overhauled the interface. The tab menu is now in the top right, and when tapped the open tabs are now arranged as horizontal screenshot icons rather than the focus being on a vertical list.

The interface isn't complete, however, as tapping the sync button shows. The menu of tabs on other computers is hidden underneath the awesomebar, making it impossible to access some of them. However this is the development version, so bugs are yet to be ironed out.

Feeling adventurous? Check it out on the Firefox Nightly Website.



EDIT: After trying the nightly on my Nexus 4, it turns out the interface upgrade is only for the tablet version of Android.
