Firefox for iOS Community Forum

From time to time, sometimes after Firefox updates, I get unintelligible characters on tabs, search bar on Firefox. It gets more frustrating because the issue extends to the Settings menu, so applying the fixes I see on the web is definitely not easy.

I am on macOS, a newer chip and below is what I tried.

Restarting Firefox Checking the library for duplicate font installations. Disabling the extensions Starting Firefox on troubleshoot mode Uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox Uncheck Use recommended performance settings (blindfolded by using the search panel under Firefox Settings) Uncheck Use hardware acceleration when available (blindfolded by using the search panel under Firefox Settings)

Beginning weeks ago, when I open the Firefox app to browse, it’s always taking me to Google. I do not prefer to use Google. Why is my Firefox app always bringing up Google and how do I change it?

When attempting to access Shortcuts from Firefox iOS there are now additional steps to get to the site than before the last update. Now a user must click in the address bar which then shows the favorites the user has available. The next step is to depress on the favorite you want to access but you must hold the depressed icon to wait for options to appear. Within those options one would choose Open in new tab which then creates a popup that must be clicked reading “switch tab.” Only when these steps are followed just as laid out will a user gets to the favorite website they want. Try it yourself and then follow my directions as per my screenshots. Can’t upload all pics

Thank you, A Loyal Firefox User

"Hello, I am trying to enable Private Browsing on my Firefox app for iOS, but I cannot find the option in the settings. I have tried restarting the app and checking under the 'Settings' tab, but it is still not showing. Could you please guide me on how to enable this feature on my device? I am using the latest version of Firefox for iOS (Version 137.0), and I am on iOS version 16. Please let me know if there's something I am missing or a specific setting I need to adjust."
