If you use the internet, you can agree that most of your time is spent browsing the web. But, what if you can save some time during your browsing experience? Suppose Firefox is your number one browser, and you would like to make your browsing experience more productive, enjoyable, and secure, you can use a plethora of Firefox add-ons to personalize your browsing experience.
Here are fantastic add-ons that make Firefox more efficient and fun to use.
LastPass Password Manager
If you are like most people and remembering passwords is not your thing, LastPass is one add-on you need. You only need to remember one primary password, and Last Pass will do the rest.
This plugin creates strong and unique passwords for all your accounts and stores them to allow easy login. It directly syncs from your PC to your tablet, phone, or laptop. This add-on is excellent for various reasons, from making online shopping more secure and fast, and making you more productive.
It even auto-changes old and weak passwords!
Grammarly
If you are never sure whether you are using the correct grammar and punctuation or not, Grammarly is what you need. This plugin will check all your writings for grammar, spelling, and punctuation. There is a free version that you can add to your Firefox browser. Still, if you want more tools like plagiarism detection, writing style suggestions, and vocabulary suggestions for your creative and academic writing, then you’ll have to go for the premium version.
Firefox VPN Extension
Privacy has become a genuine concern for people on the internet, with hackers, trackers, and other malicious actors eavesdropping on everything you do online. While Firefox is the best browser when it comes to privacy and security, according to new research, you still need something that will protect your entire online activity and not just what goes through your browser. That’s where a VPN add-on for Firefox comes in. This add-on will encrypt your internet traffic, hide your IP address, and allow you to browse the internet safely from anywhere. The best part is that it links to the more safe HTTPS URLs automatically.
Firefox Multi-Account Container
This add-on color-codes your tabs, allowing you to keep your professional and personal lives separate even as you browse. What’s more, it keeps cookies separate, allowing you to run different accounts on the same website simultaneously. This is ideal for people looking to stay up-to-date with their work-related stuff while still keeping up with their personal emails. It’s also perfect for freelancers with multiple Trello or email accounts.
By splitting cookies into color-coding tabs and containers, the Firefox Multi-Account Containers can help you manage your online personal and professional lives without mixing the two.
Smart HTTPS
The URLs of the sites you visit will start with HTTP or HTTPS, with the latter being the most secure connection. Communications through HTTPS are encrypted with an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate. This encryption prevents third-parties from snooping on your communications from and to the server.
The Smart HTTPS plugin automatically converts the HTTP protocol to the more secure HTTPS whenever it’s available.
Firefox is already a good browser, but what if you can twerk things around and make it even more incredible? The above extensions will add features to your Firefox browser and make your browsing safer, faster, and more enjoyable.
