# user.js | Fennec F-Droid

I created this project with the intention of creating something really dedicated for Android variants of Firefox.
Taking inspiration from various authors of user.js for Desktop, investigating and evaluating with experts in privacy various parameters dedicated. Giving a description and documentation to discuss each preferences in the better way possible.

## aims

* online security
* more privacy
* better performance
* less unique fingerprint possible


## best use

This user.js has been designed exclusively for Mobile use and you can use on these browsers:

* [Fennec F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/) - F-Droid
* [Firefox Browser](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=en_US) - Google Play
* [IceCatMobile](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/) - F-Droid


## installation

### first root method

1. Download and install Fennec F-Droid form the official [F-Droid client](https://f-droid.org/FDroid.apk) or from the official [F-Droid Website](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/).
2. Start for the first time (offline mode/no data connections) and wait 5 sec.
3. Close Fennec.
4. Download and move my user.js file in:
data/data/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/files/mozilla/[xxxxxxx].default
5. Start Fennec and test if user.js was applied browsing to "about:config" and see if "user.js.applied" is "true".

If this doesn't work I suggest you to use "second root method" below.
