Editing text in data entry fields is difficult when using Firefox for iOS. Cut and paste are often unavailable. There is no way to move the cursor in any direction other than backspace. Delete should be available as well as nondestructive cursor movement.

   My attempts to place a cursor then move it in a field usually fail.
  Try these cursor movements on Mozilla’s own Firefox support pages.
   Oddly, the text entry field for this comment is better behaved, Still it lacks many of the cursor movements I mentioned here.

iOS Firefox 147.2.1 (67326) January 2026

Translation Settings does not appear in the Settings menu on iOS

It’s a little frustrating, but I want to translate Japanese websites, Firefox is advertising how it’s latest December 2025 update permits translations for Japanese in iOS now… The App Store on iOS advertises that Translation is now available for Firefox…

And nothing. It’s about to be February 2026 in a couple of days, so surely, SURELY the rollout from December 2025 has finished by now? It says Japanese is available, and I live in Japan… what’s missing?

Are there undocumented minimum specifications that I’m not meeting? I’m using an iPhone XR with iOS 18.7.14 (January 2026). Is it rolling out by country, even though there’s no timeline documentation to be found that might indicate this…

Ever since the last update, I have been unable to access an HTTP site on my home network. Site does not have https setup. Site does require authentication. It my home network (so only accessible when I am home). Firefox immediately returns "HTTP ERROR 401 Unauthorized". How can whatever you turned on be turned off so that I can resume using Firefox (instead of Safari, which doesn't have this issue)? If your answer is "setup https", that's not what I'm asking (remember I said this was on my home network, so only accessible when I am at home).

How to display website URL instead of search terms by default when using Google search

I’m hoping to find out if there is any setting or option in the Firefox for iOS app that would toggle permanent display of the current website URL instead the address bar.

Noticed while doing a google search: after searching, the address bar truncates the displayed URL to just “google.com,” which is very useless in itself - tapping the address bar, however, fills it with the terms of my search. There is no way to view the full URL from here; you have to long press the address bar, after which you need to tap “Copy URL,” then paste it somewhere else, like a Notes app, to view the actual URL that was copied.

Am I missing anything, or is that the current most efficient way? If it is, why? It seems counterintuitive to obfuscate URLs like this.

I will clarify that so far I’ve only seen this while searching with Google. On other sites, the URL is still shortened severely to show just the domain (still a very inconvenient design choice that cannot be disabled, though), but at least there IS one being displayed at all.

Has this issue been brought up before? It seems like a relatively new change, and one that hasn’t benefited users, so I’m curious if there is some kind of workaround I couldn’t find.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
