Hi,

Is there a possibility to use an Android home screen shortcut to start a specific website in Firefox' private mode?

This would make it possible to use weeronline.nl (one of many sites) that forces the user to accept ALL cookies before being able to visit the site.

Thank you,

You should check out Firefox Focus, a browser that basically runs in private browsing mode all the time.

Thank you very much for the quick reply.

Firefox Focus is indeed a perfect supplement for the regular Firefox on Android.

Thanks again,
