Hi all.

I use Firefox as my default browser and I listen to different radio stations that have no app available (they only broadcast over web).

While playing them over Firefox, if I happen to have google maps open for directions, the sound on Firefox won't dim at all whenever Google maps is giving me any instructions and both sounds (Firefox and Google maps) will overlap.

This doesn't happen with other apps like Spotify, which dims the sound perfectly fine with every interactions from Google maps.

I've busted my brains trying to figure this out unsuccessfully.

You guys happent know how can I fix this, please?

Ty!

So, this is extremely minor, but if the web search widget UI scaled more fluidly, that would really help the cohesiveness of my home screen. It seems to like to snap from a 2-wide to a 4-wide size, but that leaves a gap, as seen in screenshot of the widget failing to scale to the UI resizing box.

For a few weeks now, trying to to type anything while using Firefox on android mobile is an exercise in frustration and insanity. It makes me want to tear my hair out. I type part of a word, and then it suddenly adds the autocompleted word after the end of the letter I already typed. It also keeps screwing up after apostrophes: I type "The car is Jo's car" for example, and suddenly the cursor makes a space after "Jo", but the cursor moves to behind the "s". The end result looks like "The car is Jo' car"s

I'm not making this up, it literally happened while typing the above line and I decided to leave it like that for you to see. Typing in firefox right now is maddening.

Hello. Whenever I open a link in another app, it opens this piece of art. Then, to not lose what I opened, I have to tap three dots and "Open in Firefox". I have "open links in-app" function turned off both in Firefox and all the other apps, where possible, but it still doesn't open links in normal Firefox as new tabs like the desktop browser does. I can't describe how much it pisses me off sometimes, it is so inconvenient. How do I turn this off? Maybe there's a community mod for it? Something??

Hello everyone, I am noticing a strange visual issue since today on my Android device. There is a persistent thick purple outline around the last active tab in the normal tab overview/tray.

    • Device & App Specifications:
        • What I have tried so far (none of it worked):**It looks like a keyboard/accessibility selection focus ring that gets stuck on the active tab tray element and ignores the theme engine.

Is anyone else on Android 16 or Version 151 experiencing this UI bug? Any known workarounds to force-disable this outline? Thanks!


Btw. Chrome is working well. No annoying purple outline as shown on the last picture 🤷🏻♀

For years, I've been using FF on desktop (Linux), tablet (Android) and phone (Android - Samsung S24+). Sync has never been a problem until two weeks ago when FF on the phone has either refused to sync when I tapped the command, or hasn't synced for many hours or sometimes days (which is why I tried to do it manually). So, I signed out of my FF account on all 3 devices and then signed back in. The desktop computer and tablet are syncing normally, but the phone still won't sync. When I tap the 3-dot menu on the phone and then my name, it says the phone has NEVER been synced and tapping the sync command does nothing. Under "Choose what to sync", all options are checked, but greyed out. Can't change them, in other words. When I access bookmarks on the phone, it properly shows what was there before the last sync. The phone is running FF version 150.0 Build 2016155439
