Firefox is one of the most used browsers, especially for computer users. One of the most outstanding aspects of this browser is that in addition to being Open Source, the customization capacity is practically infinite, as much or more than competitors like Google Chrome. One of the easiest and simplest customizations you can carry out in Firefox is the ability to change the home screen.

When we install the Mozilla Firefox browser, by default a home screen is configured in which shortcuts to certain websites are shown, some of them frequently visited from this browser. However, this Firefox home screen is not always to the liking of all users and that is why many wonder if they can change this screen or not.
The home screen of Web browsers is easily customizable and in Mozilla Firefox it couldn’t be any different. Firefox browser users can set any page or website as their home page. This means that when we open the Firefox browser this website will be displayed automatically.
The home screen configured in Firefox will also be available from the home button. The home button is that little “home” button that appears on the left side of the URL address bar of the browser interface. This Home button is available at all times regardless of which website you are on at any time.
