146.0beta Firefox Beta
November 11, 2025
Firefox Beta gets updated 3 times a 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.
Warning: Features listed here may or may not make a final release of Firefox.
In addition to these release notes, you can follow ongoing development via the Firefox Trains website or our @FirefoxBeta Bluesky account.
New
-
When a website uses a file upload field (
<input type=file>) without specifying what types of files it accepts, Firefox for Android will now offer additional options to make file uploads easier. Users will see choices to pick a file, take a photo, or record audio directly from their device. -
For users of the English-language versions of Firefox in France, Germany, and Italy, the address bar will now show English-language suggestions for holidays and other important dates.
-
Firefox Labs is now available to all users, regardless of whether or not they choose to participate in studies or submit telemetry. That means we have more features in the hands of more people.
-
macOS users now have a dedicated GPU process by default. This includes WebGPU, WebGL, and Firefox's own WebRender. With this feature enabled, fatal errors in graphics code will no longer crash the browser, and will instead transparently restart the GPU process.
-
Firefox now natively supports fractional scaled displays on Linux(Wayland), making rendering more effective.
Fixed
-
Fixed an issue that prevented Windows users from selecting a tab when the cursor was at the top of the screen and Firefox was maximized on some kinds of monitors.
Changed
-
Firefox removed support for Direct2D on Windows. If you still require Direct2D support, please use ESR 140.0 or higher.
Developer
-
Unused custom properties are now hidden by default in the Rule view of the Inspector.
This not only reduces clutter, but in some cases also speeds up the rendering of the inspector panel. -
Firefox now supports sending a post-quantum (PQ) key share during the DTLS 1.3 handshake for WebRTC connections.
-
Firefox now supports compressed elliptic curve points in WebCrypto.
-
Firefox now supports the
contrast-color()CSS function that takes a color value and returns a contrasting color. Note that the specification currently restricts the contrasting color to black or white. This limitation is expected to be removed in the future.
(Learn more) -
The Skia graphics library has been updated to improve rendering performance and compatibility.
-
The @scope rule is now supported, allowing authors to restrict styling to a subtree of the DOM. This avoids having to write overly-specific selectors.
-
Introduced the text-decoration-inset property, which allows authors to adjust the start and end points of line decorations.
Web Platform
-
Firefox now supports the legacy
-webkit-fill-availablekeyword as a value for the CSSwidthandheightproperties, to improve rendering of content on the web that uses this keyword. This keyword is an alias for the recently standardizedstretchkeyword (which isn't shipping in Firefox yet).
Unresolved
-
On Windows, clicking tabs may not work at the very top of the screen when Firefox is maximized on a second monitor. We’re working to fix this in a future release.(Fixed in 147.0)
