Hello !

Before v147 on Android I was able to play a video on YouTube and then shut my screen and the audio would still play and it was amazing but I can't seem to do it anymore since a week or so :/ is it just me ? Thank you

Yes what is the official URL search link to add yahoo search engine so i can add yahoo search to my search url in the settings on my android phone. Thanks Graham

So either firefox or android (probably firefox) just updated, and it's made a mess of the browser. First of all, the layout of everything has changed - the traffic light menu's at the bottom of th e screen now, completely different, there's a pull bar to see stuff that was previously readily available, the tab icons are longer for some reason but I think they're also skinnier? The hell? It's just generally worse than what it was before. I hate every part of it and want it rolled back on that basis alone, because I actually liked how it worked before, and if I want to change how my phone works I'll do it myself. Stop messing with my stuff, mozilla, I don't come into your house and start moving all your furniture around and putting your cutlery in the wrong drawers, and I'd appreciate it if you returned the courtesy.

But, as annoying - read, infuriating and unnecessary - as that is, that's not the real problem. Oh no. No, that's a personal issue, I'd either learn to live with it or I'd find a modification workaround to get my old UI back. No, the problem is that my previously smooth tab screen - you know, the one where you can see all your tabs open - now lags. Noticeably. How do you mess that up? Seriously, what did you do? It freezes when I'm scrolling up and down! How! How do you do that!

In summary, update bad for UI reasons (please stop moving things for no reason, or at least give us an option to move it back, some of us hate that Really Quite A Lot, to the point where we left chrome over it) but also for previously-nonexistent latency where there absolutely should not be any. I'm on a Fairphone 5, this isn't an ancient brick that barely runs. How do you update something to be actively less functional? Please just roll it back. And if you only take one bit of feedback from me ever, stop touching the UI. It's really annoying. Please. Just don't.

In a recent Firefox update, UI was updated to reflect Material Design. However, some elements aren't displaying as intended. However, the screen with tabs is not displayed on the entire screen (that is, it does not extend into safe zones), although the indents on the screen allow this to be done.

I recently had my firefox mobile for android updated apparently, but it is so user unfriendly and not very accessible in the way that the new layout with the dark tabs and small pictures makes it very hard to read which tabs are open and is unfriendly on the eyes. Is there any way I can revert back to the previous version? I really loved the layout and the user friendliness of it and now I am just considering downloading another browser because I am so bummed by this update. Thanks in advance.

Tab management has been changed. Very annoying new UI design.

I can no longer share all tabs with one click.

Please bring back this feature.

Is there a setting to go back to the old behavior?

In which version had this feature?

Where can I download  old version's APKs?

Recently, my Samsung A23 5G started freezing when closing tabs. I only started having this issue since Firefox updated to a new version with a new UI. I am currently on 147.0.3 on both devices. I load one tab, close it, load another, and then it usually freezes on the next close. Clearing the cache often allows me to go a couple more tabs without freezing, while simply closing Firefox still usually has the limit of two tabs before freezing. I usually just press "close app" when the "Firefox isn't responding" system box comes up. I've restarted my Samsung phone but the issue persists. My new Moto G Stylus 2025 doesn't freeze, but Firefox still feels noticably slower, especially when closing tabs.

I've uploaded three screenshots. The first one shows how it freezes while I close a tab, while the second shows how Android's "not responding" message comes up. The third one shows the current version on both of my phones.

Before that, I had encountered this case as well. After reinstalling, the new menu was applied, but today it reverted to the old one again, and reinstalling no longer works.

I refeshed a page just now, and all the tabs have gone weirdly long, it's a nightmare to interact with different pages, the intuitive structure is gone. What just happened? And how can I put the original settings back?? In the past, security updates did not wreck the ease of use, so I'm guessing this was a cosmetic 'upgrade' and I'm desperately hoping someone knows how to roll it back....

Using Firefox on Android, occasionally hitting the phone's back button will go back twice. Hitting forward will then go forward twice. The middle stop is lost!

This is frustrating.

Den Aktivierungscode für Firefox zu erhalten dauert immer 30 bis 40 Minuten und hat aber nur fünf Minuten Zeit den einzugeben! Ich habe es jetzt dreimal versucht und es funktioniert nie, bitte um Lösung

Why i cannot save, the saved password, into the password manager as a plain text file, and i have to expose it to other maybe malicious apps by copying it?

Since it could be used to store not only passwords, but maybe also (for example) encryption Private keys, since there (seem to me) is no limit (that's very good and fantastic!) on how the stored password is.

So, into the screen i can only copy the "password". That expose it to all others apps. The same goes for desktop browser.

Why not to add the possibility to upload a password from a file? And to save the saved password as a file?

Thank You guys!

Hallo zusammen,ich versuche, die neue mailbox Suite (mailbox.org) als Progressive Web App (PWA) auf meinem Android-Gerät mit Firefox zu installieren, wie es in der offiziellen Anleitung von mailbox.org beschrieben ist: Öffnen in Firefox Menü ⋮ → Installieren Zum Startbildschirm hinzufügen Stattdessen erscheint die Fehlermeldung: "Browser wird nicht unterstützt" (oder ähnlich: "Ihr Browser wird nicht unterstützt").Details zu meinem Setup:Firefox-Version: 147.0.2, Android-Version: [z. B. Android 13 auf One Plus 8, Firefox-Variante: Standard-Firefox Getestet: Im normalen Modus (nicht Privatsphäre-Modus), nach Neuladen der Seite, Cache geleert für mailbox.org Seite: https://mailbox.org (nach Login in die Suite)

Was ich schon probiert habe: Firefox komplett updaten (aktuellste Version aus Play Store) Cache & Cookies für mailbox.org löschen Seite in neuem Tab / normalem Fenster öffnen Vergleich: In Chrome/Brave funktioniert die PWA-Installation problemlos und wird als App installiert

Laut der mailbox.org Knowledge Base

kb.mailbox.org

wird Firefox auf Android explizit unterstützt und soll über das Menü → Installieren gehen. Ist das ein bekannter Bug in der aktuellen Firefox-Version? Gibt es eine about:config-Einstellung, die ich aktivieren muss, oder ein Workaround? Oder ist die Unterstützung bei mailbox.org doch noch nicht vollständig für Gecko/Firefox implementiert? Danke für eure Hilfe – würde gerne bei Firefox bleiben, statt auf Chromium wechseln zu müssen!

Danke im Voraus für eure Hilfe! Beste Grüße andreas.s
