Firefox за Android Community Forum

Hello, I realized today that when I want to search in Firefox mobile on Google something and want to add something, that it's impossible especially if your last search contained only one word. If it contains more as one it will erase the space and merge the words. I usually use opera on mobile so I never had this problem, but sometimes do I use also Firefox and now did I saw this problem. I attached a video to this post (it won't be there forever, but I will try to let it there for a while).

The video shows when you searched for "Jeans" and want to expand it to "Jeans red" the word Jeans is erased, just gone, no editing possible. The end of the video shows,when you have multiple words like "skinny jeans in red" and you want to edit it or add something, the "in red" gets merged to "inred".

There is some strange behavior happening. My active extensions:

1. Dark reader
2. Ublock Origin
3. Auto scroll to top/bottom

Video: Google drive link with video

OOT: Btw: I dislike that you can't hold your finger here on a word to select it, I wanted to select my text to check my English through my translator. The editor doesn't allow Text selection by touch :( that is not nice. (Lol.... I could double tap the "oot" to select it and make it in caps,but now I can't do it again 🙃 very strange editor here!)

Is there a way to protect selected cookies from being cleared when you need to clear cookies to access a web site? I don't like to lose the sign in cookies from sites I visit often.

Trying to set up sync on my freshly reset Pixel 8a (on Android 16) and did reset as I was failing to log in in the first place.

Either password authentication or scanning QR takes me to the MFA prompt and end up with "Bad Request" "Something went wrong, please close this tab and try again"

Have tried numerous times!

Whilst viewing news stories in Google, I keep getting pages that do not load, so I go to settings – apps- Firefox, scroll down to memory and clear the cache. I go bag to Google new click the link and most of the time I am taken to the page and can read the article (but not every time). But the page not loading happens frequently and it is becoming a pain having to clear the cache over and over again. Is there a shortcut I can use to reach Firefox memory or is there a way of stopping Firefox to clear the cache as it is created.

This was the only way I could download Mozilla from F-Droid. Thanks heaps guys/gals. Google has been giving me hell ugh!

I also have the Google Play Store regular issue Firefox browser. Do you recommend I keep both as I'm definitely keeping this fennec issue?

I suspect I am PH#€%ed. Am I eligible for a miracle?

S10+ 139.0.4 NOT set up to sync | see attached for specs

In the bookmarks toolbar, I have many folders. I had one named Reference and one named Research. A few weeks ago after a big update my bookmarks had somehow nested multiple copies nested weirdly.

I messaged for help through the Garg app store, and a developer said to please file a ticket with support. I MEANT to do it, but time got away, and I'd already cut the sync and done a lot of cleanup.

I'd removed this phone from sync (no SIM, no cellular connection for the last year, but I use it on Wifi—I carry it around a lot for note-taking when I get brain dumps from people).

I discovered two Reference folders— one in the Toolbar and one in Bookmarks. I moved the one in Bookmarks to the Toolbar, and then moved everything in it into the other Reference folder, which had more, figuring I'd go through and delete the dupes at some point.

I then deleted the empty Reference folder and got the question, "Are you sure you want to delete the selected items [you IDtenT]?"

I confidently clicked yes, not realising my stupid fat finger had clicked on the RESEARCH folder to delete.

I may be able to find some of it to sync or sneaker net from elsewhere but there were swathes of unique addresses in that damn folder. I tried to search bookmarks for the folder and then for any folder. I tried to search "Internal Storage" for any whisper, and Apps which I hardly have any read access to in the file tree without success.

I read the readme called Manage Bookmark Folders in Firefox, plus a couple of hours of additional readme reading and flailing... but I cannot find the answer to a short list of pertinent questions.

1. How does one search/find a bookmark FOLDER, a regular one, which some ahole hasn't deleted?

2. Don't the help articles mention an UNDO option when deleting individual tabs and bookmarks? Sorry, bit of a swivet, but is there an undo for folders? I found no such offering mentioned when deleting an entire folder. I'm assuming no, but... (this might be a good place to mention (while I'm headbanging my desk) that some *other* browsers contain a numeric in their deletion warning, rather than a ubiquitous "these items", whether it's an empty folder or full), hope will spring. Biat£#.

3. Third and final— is there any way for someone without access to costly forensic software to recover this data?

A lifetime of backup, backup, redundant backups is mocking me, so please don't laugh at my self-induced misery. If there's no remedy, give it to me straight.

TIA, Alex

Can't install yandex.ru mailbox to Firefox for Android. Using generated stecial application password did not get s result anyway

On my Samsung Galaxy s6 when I try to add to the home screen and then choose the option to tap and hold and drag to the screen, it just closes the app it is nothing. It doesn't work. The text options from the pop-up do work but the main graphic where it's trying to get you to drag and drop it does not work.

When using the UBLOCK ORIGIN extension i cant Join the app. i need to turn it off, then I can join the Firefox nightly. I need help because I use this extension so much.

Hi. When I go to YouTube.com on the Firefox mobile browser, I cannot for the life of me find my notifications. On the Firefox PC browser, there is a bell icon in the top right of the screen, but not only is it missing in the mobile browser, I cannot find any button or section labeled "notifications." Please advise.

For the last 2ish months, Firefox will refresh the page if I just place my finger on the screen.

If I put my finger on the screen (not swiping down) the refresh wheel will pop up and refresh the page.

It doesn't happen all the time, maybe once or twice a day, but it happens on every page and causes me to lose stuff like where I was on a page and what I was typing. It doesn't do it when the keyboard is up.

Any suggestion as to what's wrong with it?

Hi, the latest nightly version crashes everytime on my Pixel 8 Pro. Clearing cache, force stopping and restarting the phone doesn't help.

version 141.0a1 org.mozilla.fenix

On Firefox nightly when viewing all open tabs, the thumbnail displayed does not show the current underlying web page. Instead it shows some prior web page thumbnail ... see attached screenshot

When you view the attached screenshot, the bottom left tab is playing a video with the title robot revolution, yet the thumbnail displayed on that tab is from a prior site that I viewed on that same tab

141.0a1 (Build #2016096519), null GV: 141.0a1-20250612214230 AS: 141.20250605050304 OS: Android 16

Also when booking this ticket on the pick list there is no choice for tabs which is why I chose browse

Dear all,

I just found that in Firefox 139 for Android the menu buttons "Install" and "Add to Home Screen" disappeared. I tried deleting the cache, reinstalling, restarting the smartphone. I tried different websites, included well-known PWA apps (i.e. https://github.com/mdn/pwa-examples ).

I'm on Lineage 22.2.

The community guides still report the availability of this feature: https://mzl.la/3p7ltJx

Am I missing something?

Example with facebook.com in the images. Note that on x.com a popup asks me if I want to installa the app version of the website, but the menu options are still missing. It's only website I found where that popup shows up.

Hello, when using a dropdown list that is connected to an external source (excel on the cloud), firefox on android does not offer us options. It works in other browsers. Ideal worked in Opera. Where is the problem with firefox?
