Mozilla has rolled a new version of Firefox out to the Android browser’s stable channel, bringing with it screen mirroring and a few other goodies. This isn’t the first time some of this has popped up in Firefox, but being the stable channel, it all works now.

The last beta release with screen mirroring was still really buggy for me, but it works just fine now. You can find it in the tools menu down at the bottom. The v34 beta also had Yahoo as the default search engine as an experiment, but that hasn’t made it to the final versionâ€”it’s still Google. The new theme isn’t radically different, but it has fewer bevels and shadows. The colors have been tweaked as well.

Firefox has come a long way since the early days when it was barely able to load a page. It’s a downright nice browser now.
