86.0beta Firefox Beta

January 26, 2021

Version 86.0beta, first offered to Beta channel users on January 26, 2021

Firefox Beta gets updated several times per week and as a consequence, the release notes for the Beta channel are updated continuously to reflect features that have reached sufficient maturity to benefit from community feedback and bug reports.

In addition to these release notes, you can follow ongoing development on our @FirefoxBeta Twitter account.
