Firefox за Android Community Forum

How do I make this horribel change occured to my browser??

It was okay, fhen it changed into

this

thing and it reverted itself and I was happy

then it's like this again

It has no sense, You must have to use 2 hands at same time to browse with this new UI, it actively tries to lure you into unwanted function. I am unhappy.

I've used Firefox a long time on different platforms, bookmarks get duplicated, irrelevant and numerous for the same websites.

When I try to rationalize them the workflow does not allow me to easily bin the superfluous ones without opening the site and then only removes the title not the web address.

The computer work flow is much better but as mobiles are now more frequently used as main devices, would it not be sensible to change this behaviour for a better workflow?

When I am using the android Firefox browser to watch YouTube, it is fine when browsing and finding a video. I will click on a video just fine, and start watching it no problem. The issue occurs when I switch tabs or switch apps to do something else and return later. Once I return to the YouTube tab even if the video is not or was never in full screen, Firefox will then be forced into landscape orientation. This persists between tabs until I either restart the app or do a Google search.

I found a potential solution in these forums. In about:config there should be a setting called media.videocontrols.lock-video-orientation. I tried this, but there is no such setting there for me. I'm at a loss for what to do now.

Hello, And sorry for my bad English. I use Firefox for more than 20 years on my computer and for years on my smartphone. But since few months, there's a "bug" on Android: When I launch Firefox or launch again after be back to another app, the page is black screen and need few seconds (15-20-30s) before load. And, sometime, the page reload with the same time but delete all information that I've enter before, that is very problematic wheel there's a formular in the page. It's really unuseful and very annoying. Have you a solution for that? Thank in advance for your help. Have a good day :) PS: it's very annoying because all the time we ask you a question or problem, you said it's not you or or another service of your company... I'm really a fan of Firefox, Thunderbird and donator to mozilla company ; but, really, it's annoying that you ignore the problem and bug of your app, and finally don't solve it because you ignore them...

Although Firefox for Android has support for PWA websites in general,I see that it doesn't detect all pwa websites and creates a simple shortcut instead! For example go to mytuner-radio.com and try to install it as a Pwa, it just creates a shortcut!

If you try this on other browsers like Vivaldi for Android, it installs it as an app, without the need to open the whole browser alongside all the tabs,every time you tap on its icon !

Please fix this and make all sites that support pwa detectable !

My android phone just recently updated my firefox version to 148 (this happened today, February 27, 2026).

Since this happened, I can no longer properly manage my bookmarks. Let me describe in more detail:

I have multiple sub-folders that I use to organize my bookmarks by topic. Previously, when I edited a bookmark, I could move it into one of these sub-folders by navigating to the sub folder on the bookmark editing page. Normal, expected behavior.

• Now* when I try to edit a bookmark, only the top-level "Bookmarks" folder is visible; if I try to expand that folder with the > carat icon, nothing happens. I only have the option to make *new* subfolders, not to navigate to subfolders that already exist.

To be clear: - I can find all my previously existing bookmark subfolders when I want to *open* a bookmark. - The problem is only when I want to *move* a bookmark into one of these existing subfolders. - When I edit a bookmark, I see the > carat icon that normally would expand the Bookmarks top-level folder, but that icon does not function. Therefore I cannot actually select any of my existing folders to move the bookmark into.

Can this function be restored to the normal behavior a.s.a.p.?

I'm attaching two screenshots to show that I have subfolders, but that I cannot access them when I edit a bookmark (pressing the expand button does nothing)

Thank you.

I have a suggestion and a problem. First, regarding the problem, I use a tablet with a mouse and cannot scroll through tabs using the mouse scroll wheel or tap with the mouse. Second, I have a suggestion regarding the top bar, which I think should be resizable, because on my tablet with a landscape layout, the top bar takes up too much space, especially now that there are browser tabs at the top.

I've started watching YouTube through my browser and I've begun to notice that it'll automatically change the settings on the site to block autoplay of audio and video, which stops background play.

I have the setting set to allow autoplay audio and video.

I notice it when I switch from the tab and it'll stop playing so I go to the page specific settings and it's switched to block.

How are they doing this? And what can I do to stop it from doing this?

I know it could be Samsung pass that's not optimised for firefox but it seems to be working fine on other apps.

Hence my question; Why isn't firefox not optimised for Samsung pass?

Fx 148.0 Galaxy A14 5G

Unable to view the subfolders in the bookmarks folder when I add or edit bookmarks:

three vertical dot icon > bookmark page > edit > bookmarks > tap on ">" next to "bookmarks" to view the subfolders

This problem started happening after the latest update.

The 148 version hides most of the options previously available from the menu option. Sometimes I can access the options through an option to "show more" Mostly the " show more " is not present. I then lose access to options I use a lot: print to pdf, translate etc etc I have tried both the expanded and simple toolbars. (The expanded reverts to simple every time I quit Firefox anyway).

How can I solve this? Is there a way to go back to the much better older menu version? So much quicker and cleaner.

Thanks

When I open the app the search is extremely slow and the page takes up to 10 30 seconds to change from a blank to a normal page. I tried changing from Google to bing and to remove the extensions but no improvement

I have an issue in that, upon pressing the three-dot menu button on mobile, the browser menu is suddenly popping up from the bottom of the screen instead of sliding in from the side like it's supposed to, as well as what used to be a nice and neat list of options now being a cluster of hard-to-make-out icons and buttons. I didn't change anything in the settings to make it do this (I very specifically selected the "top" display option when I first downloaded Firefox months ago and haven't touched it since), and I've already checked reddit to see if anyone else is having this problem and if so, how to return my menu's behavior and appearance to normal (no luck).

I unfortunately have no images of what my menu is supposed to look like as it never occurred to me something like this could happen, but I can at least provide a screenshot of the ugly way it looks now (notice the little bar at the top of it that suggests I'd be able to "drag" it back to its correct placement? Yeah, it doesn't do anything, no matter how long I hold my finger on it.) PLEASE tell me what can be done to undo this awful change and return my menu to normal!

I am not sure if this is a setting / UI issue in Firefox for Android or if it is a UI thing for Android in general.

I am using an Acer tablet with Firefox for Android. Before, I would use the three vertical dots icon to get the menu to display on the right of the screen (for example, when I need to search for text or look through the browser history). Now it is suddenly appearing in the middle of the screen instead and I can't work out how to put it back. I tried dragging it to the side, and double tapping on it, and looking through the settings. I searched online, but all I got was stuff about moving the address bar to the top/bottom or tips on menu design.

Whenever i reopen Firefox on Xiaomi 15T with HyperOS 3 i get a 10 sec black screen on any tab with a previously loaded website. Even with all battery optimization disabled it still does it. No other browser does it. Mi browser, chrome and brave tested and dont do it.

Internation ROM.

Somehow there's something that keeps popping up my browser every time I plug it into charge or unplug it from charging and I have to delete the tab. Where is the setting on my Android or Firefox for Android that will eliminate pop-ups?
