I have a very simple web server on my desk using an ESP8266. It has it's own IP address 10.18.2.3 If I enter this url on Firefox on Android it works just great. However when I enter the same url of Firefox on IOS is does nothing and says "No Internet Connection". I already know there is no internet connection and I do not want one. I just want to have Firefox work the same as it does on Android. What settings do I need to change in IOS to make this work ? I am also curious why it shouldn't work on IOS in the first place too. Thanks Alan

Hi all.

I suppose this applies as much to Firefox on the desktop as it does to iOS, really.

I'm having real trouble with passwords, now that I've moved over from Safari to Firefox & Apple have seen fit to create a standalone Passwords app. (Life was so much simpler before they did that!)

I have the extension installed, but I'm getting mis-matches between the two (or three if you count the phone, meaning: Passwords App, Firefox Desktop & Firefox iOS).

I suppose the way it should work in my head is that when Firefox asks me if I want to save a password, it should save it to the passwords app (although I have no problem if it saves the password into the Firefox preferences too) & when I go to log in somewhere, it should call the password from the passwords app, but it doesn't seem to be doing that, I'm just getting multiple versions of log-ins everywhere.

I just had to reset my Instagram log-in. Firefox generated the password & it's now saved in the Firefox passwords list but it hasn't appeared in the Passwords app.

Shouldn't the extension be keeping them synchronised?

Somehow my app is not is Dutch or German (??) and I can’t figure out how to switch it back to English. Please respond with specific screenshots on how to update the language. It’s not in English so I will not be able to make the update without screenshots. I’m using the latest Firefox iOS app. Just updated.

All of the shortcuts that Fire Fox created for my oft-used websites stopped working on my iPad. Nothing happens when I select any of them. It may be related to my recent upgrade to iOS 26, but I believe they continued to work for a time after my upgrade.

I am on an iPad mini. My familysearch.org site just told me to update Firefox. That‘s what I tried to do in following the given link. That link lead me to the apple page to download Firefox. I pushed the download button and assumed it downloaded. But then I miss the install Button. Now I am stuck. My fear is, that your latest update will not work with my IOS-version. And my older iPad is already on its most up-to-date level. Can you help?

Hi I cannot find any way to scan an URL QR code directly from Firefox. I expected that a QR code icon would appear when i tap the address bar, but I can't find such icon...

Of course, I checked the settings: camera is enabled in Firefox settings and QR code scanning is enabled in system settings.

Is there any way to scan QR codes directly from Firefox settings?

I use the latest version of both Firefox (146.1 (65627)) and iOS (iOS 26.3 (23D5089e)) iOS is a beta version... Could this be the reason why...

Many thanks in advance for any help on advice.

Hi.

I like to switch tabs in the iOS app with some gesture. Is that possible?

The only thing I found in the documentation is that some keybinding exists, but I do not have a keyboard attached to my phone.

I also found some old request and some Reddit posts that swiping the address bar would do the trick. This did not work for me.

I am hoping for something like a three finger swipe anywhere, but have not spent much thought on a perfect UI integration.

I love to learn how to make switching TABs by gesture work.

Thank you for your work! Oliver
