Firefox vir iOS Community Forum

I have DuckDuckGo set as my default search engine on Firefox iOS, but whenever I try using the Look Up feature and then Search, it always gives back results from Google. I even turned off Google Search as one of my preferred search engine, and I still get Google search results. This only happens when I try using Look Up, because it works perfectly fine when I try searching normally. How do I change it, if it can be changed at all?

Please share a link about what Google (AI??) is doing and how Mozilla is dealing with this. What can users do by way of publicizing what Google is doing and defeating its ridiculously overblown sense of entitlement.

I want to turn on my Firefox vpn in my iPhone but when I tap my Firefox icon, I get get the google browser instead of Firefox browser and there is no icon to turn on vpn in the google browser page.

I had have an iPad Pro running the latest IOS 26 and Firefox Focus. When I fire it up, if I have my keyboard attached, the cursor appears briefly for a second and then disappears. It’s like the cursor focus leaves the URL area of the browser.

If I disconnect my keyboard, I can click in there and use the on screen keyboard. Once I do that and enter anything [and hit enter], then it will work from that point. So this appears to only affect initial use of the app. I can click up there and type anything after that first submission and it works.

Searching firefox support for “how to search firefox settings” only gives links to changing search engine. I want to find where a specific setting is located without looking thru every category. IOS.

When I follow directions to add Startpage search engine I get, that URL does not work. I tried this Https://startpage.com/sp/dsearch/?query=%s

It is as the title states; keyword search, a feature that has been on Firefox desktop since... forever; and for the longest time in iOS, no longer works

This problem has surfaced a few times before, the feature going away, and a couple minor versions later it returns - but it has been since around v149 without this feature.

Is it going away?

Hi,

With a browser tab open to any website, I’m no longer able to use a saved shortcut upon tapping into the web address bar.

Tapping the address bar brings up the keyboard and screen as normal, except with a faded background. As soon as you try selecting a saved item it sends you back to the existing open web page.

Google is the only search engine that will open a page. When using Firefox iOS to search, find your way back to a better search engine (below) appears after downloading the app. It seems to be in a loop that will not allow me t open any url. I believe my phone has flexispy (or some kind of spyware) downloaded on it and this is one search engine that it possibly cannot track, so it doesn’t function at all? Could this be the cause of this continuous loop that sends me back to download the app?

I’m switching to Firefox from Google. But I use Google lens for identifying things. I don’t know about. I wondered if Firefox has a Google lens or similar utility?
