I am getting Firefox on my tablet so I can use a Portable device. You are on my desktop as advised by my son. He years ago advised me to learn email. To do so meant a non credit class at the local university. It is now many years later and I a retired nurse seeks his advise for all computer related things. Email for communication has been very important as my family is in Saskatchewan, Alberta and BC. In the past I did travel out of Canada but did keep my family aware of my movement and did book my own transportation, accomodation etc. Email allows this. I felt secure using Firefox to do this. You have proven my son was wise in his advise. I can trust Firefox. Vera Hamilton

I don't think Accessibility is the proper topic. I couldn't find a more relevant topic in the list.

The concern I have is why the "Send Tab" feature in Firefox for Android isn't in the same place as in the desktop version? It is easily found in the sync menu (shown as the user's email address) but in the Android version it's under share instead of the sync menu where it belongs. Why isn't there any consistency between platforms? Consistency is very important for ease of use, efficiency and user satisfaction. Please at lease try to lix this issue in the next subversion or the next version, which ever is more feasible.

Thank you.

When I set a shortcut for a website, I just get a randomly colored icon with the first letter of the domain in the center from some website . This happens even though the websites have proper favicons — I checked. The issue seems to be with the app itself, not the sites. I also tried it on a freshly installed latest firfox browser, and the problem persists. One example is https://www.perplexity.ai/, which doesn't show its icon either.

I have some websites that require pop-ups. I cannot get them to work in Firefox on my Android phone. Google searches reference a setting under "privacy and security" where I should be able to allow pop-ups in general or for certain URLs only, but I don't have that setting option.

I have Firefox version 139.4 if that helps.

Thanks in advance, Paul

Multiple times a day, I'll open Firefox Mobile and find that the settings have reset themselves: The tabs are set up in grid view, and the homepage has had sponsored shortcuts added, with Google, Wikipedia, and something about trending stories pinned, as well as stories/sponsored stories toggled back to on.

This happens multiple times a day. Sometimes I will open it and find that not only have my settings reverted in this manner, but *multiple* Google/Wikipedia/trending shortcuts have been pinned.

How can I stop this from happening?

As of this morning (7-5-25), the app Firefox and only the Firefox app turns my entire phone screen grayscale when it is open in the foreground. The color transition takes about a second, and if I tab to another app or the home screen it takes about a second to transition back to full color. I cannot find any active grey scale settings in either my phone or the app. I have downloaded no extensions to my knowledge.

Dear Support, while using my email, Outlook, on my mobile, I cannot log out of my account. Can anybody help, please?

Am using the Galaxy A21s Android mobile.

Am using Android 12.

My browser is Firefox for Android, version 140.0.3.

The email is Outlook.com.

Whenever I go into my own account, I click on my profile, and then sign out. In the very recent past, the system has done exactly that. Now, however, the system 'hangs' and does nothing. The only thing that was different was the updating of Firefox for Android.

Could anybody suggest anything, please? Do not want to stay logged on, especially on an Android mobile, Marek

I am adding tabs to Collections and have noticed that I cannot change the order in which the list of Collections appears, either on the Home page under subheading "Collections" or upon clicking "Save to collection" from the three-dot menu.

The order seems to be fixed by an ordering system of oldest to newest. There is no way to rearrange this ordering, either to alphabetical ranking or custom ordering.

Is there a way to switch up the chronological ordering? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hello, I'm using Firefox for Android and actively work with bookmarks. I really miss the feature that would allow me to edit bookmarks directly from the search results — for example, to rename or even delete them. This functionality seems to be missing.

Am I doing something wrong, is there a trick to it, or could this be a small update worth considering?

Thanks a lot for any response.

Best regards, Meik Alef

Hello!

In Firefox android, sometimes when I press the address bar, instead of coloring and deleting the whole address, so I can type new address, it goes into some editing mode, where when I start typing, it starts continuing the address already there. What is this extremely annoying feature? I share a screenshot where an address is colored. The grey "normal" part, and the purple part where the cursor is when I start typing.

I default to using private browsing on Android. However, even with having one tab open(no tabs open in normal browsing) firefox consumes way too much resources after a while and only having one tab open (>2.5 Gb of ram).

I noticed that normal browsing caches itself when it is not active on screen while private browsing keeps running in background and memory usage keeps going up by the second. Attached are screenshots of memory usage going from around 250mb to 2.5gb in couple of minutes. All I had open was a single tab!!

Currently I'm running Firefox Android 140.0 on Android 15, though this issue has been present for the past two to three years, though it has started to occur more often in the past six months.

When browsing Private Tabs, the browser will regularly close all these tabs on its own, unprompted, and show the New Tab page for Private Tabs. This is visualised by a slide left animation, similar to switching between tabs by swiping across the navigation bar. Sometimes, this also occurs when switching apps, even though Firefox is locked to prevent its background task from being killed. Normal tabs are not refreshed. The “Close Tabs” setting is set to Never. The specific websites accessed do not change anything, as they are different each time.

Steps to reproduce problem:

  1. Open several (5-10) Private tabs
  2. Browse as normal
  3. After a couple of days, whilst browsing, all Private tabs will close themselves. Alternatively, lock the Firefox app in multitasking view, then switch apps for a minute and then return (this tends to happen at random after a couple of days).
