Firefox will now offer to temporarily remember when users grant permissions to sites

Version 131.0, first offered to Release channel users on October 1, 2024

New Features

• Firefox will now offer to temporarily remember when users grant permissions to sites (e.g. geolocation). Temporary permissions will be removed either after one hour or when the tab is closed.
• A tab preview is now displayed when hovering the mouse over background tabs, making it easier to locate the desired tab without needing to switch tabs.
• When suggesting a default translation language, Firefox will now take into consideration languages you have previously used for translations.
• We’ve re-introduced the ability to navigate to the search engine home page when the search bar is empty by using shift-enter/shift-click.

Fixes:

• Various security fixes.
