Mozilla: No Firefox for iPhone, But Firefox Home Expanding

Sep 28, 2010, 2:50 PM by Eric M. Zeman

In a blog post today, Mozilla details its road map for its mobile products. It said that it is working to bring its Firefox Home application to the Symbian and BlackBerry platforms, which should be at some point in the coming months.

Though Mozilla offers Firefox Home to Apple's iOS platform and the iPhone, Firefox said in no uncertain terms that it is not developing a mobile version of Firefox for the iPhone. Mozilla is still working on Fennec for other platforms, including Android.
