| Adaptive search in Firefox OS |
We might have got the result, but have to save it and access it quickly (bookmark it) from our mobile, but these features are available only in browser till now. We were not able to create a shortcut in our home screen.
To make user experience easier and help users to access information easily Firefox have a search by default. This is called as Adaptive searching. Mozilla partnered with Everything.me to achieve this.
Here we just need to
- Type a word or subject you’re interested in
- Find exactly what you want — and more
- Get instant access or save apps to your phone
- Discover more web apps
How to use Adaptive Search
When you goto Home screen of Firefox OS, you can see I'm thinking of... click on that text area.
Type a word which you love and leave it. (Eg:- Sachin Tendulkar)
You will get lot of web applications related to your query.

One of the most interesting thing is the background of the screen will be changed according to your query. If you have searched for Sachin Tendulkar, the famous cricketer face will be coming as background.
To bookmark and reuse
To bookmark our query which we have used we just need to click on the star icon, it will change its colorless to yellow color star. An icon will be created in screen and whenever needed we can easily click the icon and access the variety of information available.
