Firefox 119 Starts to Roll Out Improved Firefox View Feature, Ramps Up Privacy and Security

The new release offers two notable new features -- a major expansion of its Firefox View tab’s content, plus additional PDF editing tools along with a slew of security and privacy enhancements.

Firefox 119.0 opens by adding more content to the Firefox View tab, which turned a year old this month. It now displays all open tabs -- including from other windows and synced devices. A browser history option has also been added, along with sort options by date or by site.

The browser also implements improvements to its PDF viewing tool that will extend its editing capabilities to allow users to add both images and alt text captions.

Both features may not appear immediately as they’re being rolled out across the user base.
