Firefox за Android Community Forum

Pressing back button when browsing returns to earlier previous search instead of current search. Have tried to

Have tried:

chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml

Then search for: browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers

Mine was set to -1, I changed it to 0

But did not fix issue

The latest update severely broke the app. At random, tabs will suddenly go back one, two, sometimes even several steps back in their history, and it is impossible to go back forward to where I was; the "forward" button is grayed out and it's like I never left the page I was suddenly thrown back to for no reason.

This can happen right after following a link, or it can happen several seconds after a page has fully loaded. When this happens, sometimes trying to follow _any_ link sends Firefox back to the same page until the app is forcefully killed and restarted.

Other people have described identical experiences in the Android reviews. Please revert the latest update. It's unusable. I have to go back to Chrome for the first time in over a decade.

I have tried disabling all extensions, and the problem persists.

I wanted to use this space to address the Firefox Android's awful browser history interface.

I made a complaint six years ago in which one of the issues I had with the mobile browser was that trying to search through history was a miserable experience. Six years, three phones, and numerous updates later, absolutely nothing has been fixed. The mobile browser STILL does not separate entries by date, and when one searches by website the only options are "Firefox Suggests" instead of an actual chronological listing of what pages were visited.

Yes, I know that bookmarking pages would alleviate this issue. I typically do, but I'm human and can forget to do that. And no, syncing both the desktop and mobile browser histories is not a valid excuse, not when other mobile browsers were able to do this without relying on desktop versions for over a decade.

And so I ask again, is there a better way to view the browser history. And if not, could Mozilla PLEASE actually implement an actual UI that properly organizes search history. I enjoy Firefox's privacy measures and I really do not want to go back to Chrome, but I need to also have a browser that doesn't feel like I'm pulling teeth just to use something so basic.

This is a new issue, starting yesterday, 09-30-2025. When I went to delete some (NOT all) websites in my browsing history, and after using the X to remove said websites, and then when that didnt work, I pressed on the website & hit the delete tab... thinking I had deleted all I had wanted deleted, then went back into my history to make sure they were removed, and I discovered that ALL of my "deletions" were back, and, in fact had "children". There are over 180 deletions that are back in my history. They keep growing! I've tried 5 different times to delete those that I longer want in my history to no avail. What has happened here? Thank you for your assistance with this frustrating issue.

Recently, after I manually delete selected pages on Firefox browser History, those pages keep coming back in History after I close and then reopen Firefox browser. I have not changed any settings. This just started a few days ago. I have always manually deleted History and/or selected pages and not had this problem before. Thanks for your assistance.

Firefox keeps restoring deleted history on my cell phone.This option is not available to me in settings: To prevent Firefox from restoring deleted history after a closure or crash, disable the "Open previous windows and tabs" setting in Settings > General under the Startup section. Also, about:config does not work on my cell phone.

The Firefox mobile app for Android won't let me highlight more than one word when I hold down to select and copy text. Within the last week, tabs I delete from history reappear the next time I open my browser history.

Since the 143.0 update, when I delete links I no longer want in History, they all come back the next time Firefox is opened. Any help with this little problem will be appreciated. Thanks, Roy I have a Samsung S24 running Android 15 with August update.
