I have the latest version of Android 13 and Firefox up to date on my phone, but there's been some weird behavior when playing videos as of late. Videos refuse to properly go fullscreen now. When I tap the fullscreen button, the video moves to the center of the screen but stays in portrait orientation, which is obviously not what I want. In addition, picture-in-picture is not working at all, and the notification control panel (that lets you pause and play minimized videos from the notification) is not appearing even though notifications are not disabled for Firefox. Videos still play, but almost none of the features for them are working. What is going on? Can anyone help?

HELP! My mobile data usage spiked as of June 20th and has continued at unprecedented levels almost every day since. My historic daily usage for the past many years has been around 4 MB and is now 95MB. and busting through my 2GB/month limit. This is ALL due to Firefox! What happened? Something strange happened on June 19th, when my mobile date usage recorded three separate usage figures instead of the single usage figure for all days previously. June 19th showed 2 usage figures and June 30th showed 3.

When a private tab is opened, it lets me know in the silent notifications on my phone with the "swipe or tap to close" the tab/s. However, once I close the private tab that notification remains. When I click or swipe the notification it goes for a second and comes back despite not having a private tab open. Even with normal tabs open it does the same thing. Force stopping the app gets rid of it but the second a private tab is opened it returns.

I understand I can just turn off that notification but it's useful to have. Was just wondering if there is a fix or setting anyone knows of or how I can report this to Mozilla?

Thank you

The soft touch(or short touch?) feature on the website doesn't seem to work on Firefox. Compared to chrome, Samsung Internet, Brave, Vivaldi

In other browsers, if you lightly touch a post on a community site, etc., the post will highlight or display a preview image, but Firefox does not show this feature, only displays a system window, such as copying links, when pressed strongly.

This problem seems to be related to the browser's touch function. It's not a long press. It's a matter of short press

Hi

I've already described the issue on the XDA forum, but nothing has been resolved and the problem is still there and I've read about security vulnerabilities in the browser and it could have fallen into this one Party I don't know anymore. but since the version with the ending 17, I don't remember exactly now. It was the first application with a virus, I mean Fennec, downloaded from fdroid. I had the same with google play, now I know that this purple version had nothing for me. Later it went downhill. . Maybe you have an idea, I know that on Reddit someone also complained about the virus. I'm pasting a post from xda, using the phone is a pain terribly. 'Hi XDA

writes with the help of a translator. So I can say something wrong for which I apologize.

I'm having a problem with my phone's security. VirusTootal detects the Trojan for me in applications where the Trojan is not present.

I've tried cleaning my phone.but it doesn't help.

I'm using F-Droid and I'll use this example to tell you what's going on. for some time now I have been updating almost all the new ones that I download zl from there I also download with a Trojan, these applications are clean in other users. And I'm sure they're okay, but not for me. I don't know what's going on, I thought they were false positives but why would I be the only one who has it?

Maybe I'll add pictures, it will explain more. It's just about this one virus, if I go back to an older version I don't have it.


The ones from Google Play have some too. Be it from github or fdroid -It doesn't matter :( Some manage to be clean, but really these are the cases.. Of course, I also downloaded mods. I've always tried to check them through App Manager and VirusTool API. and I might not have checked one either - I don't rule it out

thanks for the reply and tips. health for all' I would like to add that I used this browser because of the add-ons and options.. The photos are just a preview and a fraction of the problem. Nothing helps from resetting, deleting apk by even adb and after updates.

hello. I am a user who uses Firefox 123 in Android 14.

There is a problem with writing posts based on HTML editors on the site I usually use.

The editor is in the form of Wysiwyg, and if the image is inserted through the editor, it is impossible to continue to enter the text after the element.

Even if I try to touch the right side of the image and keep input from the right side of the image, the cursor(blinking '|') refuse to go back to the image.

Can I solve this problem? If I need About:config settings, I'm willing to use Firefox beta or nightly.

Install often does not work nearly as well as the web page. For example, spelling bee "installed" on my Samsung tab A7, has difficulty accepting taps. Only about 1 in 3 taps will register a letter. On my brand new Pixel 7A, the spelling bee app is not in dark mode, even though it is in the browser. And my entire phone is dark mode. Also, I can't click on the share or overflow menus. Installing the New York times games page has the same problems. And last, on my pixel 7a, the USGS earthquakes app jumps around all over the place making it useless. It would be nice to have both options, "install" and "add to home screen" in case the install fails.

I'm following the instructions to set Firefox nightly as my default browser, but when I go to settings and try to switch the toggle to "set as default browser" instead of doing it, it just opens a new tab with the instruction. I got up to 4 identical tabs before I gave up. I know how to do it, it's just malfunctioning.

In a separate issue, I have had Firefox Beta for about a year on my Kindle Fire, always worked great. Since the latest update, it won't even open. The screen pops up for a second, then immediately closes. I uninstalled and reinstalled, same issue. I installed regular Firefox, no issue. Then I found nightly, installed with no issue (other than the problem listed above).
