Firefox for iOS Community Forum

Firefox on iOS states "No saved passwords" despite my desktop having all passwords and sync turned on. Turning off sync, signing out and back in, deleting the app and reinstall, all did not resolve the issue.

Any help appreciated

Hi This issue started today. When I’m in Firefox on my iphone14 and go to the search line my shortcuts and bookmarks, etc are now in the background. How can I bring everything back so that it’s all accessible when I use the search line? The only way I can access everything in the background, is by opening a new window.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, Firefox lists "https://mzl.la/iOSSupport" as the site to provide feedback. This URL doesn't work.

Last night I updated my iPhone 11 Pro to iOS 26.1

Since the upgrade I'm unable to have Firefox play audio for a music stream I listen to when the phone goes to sleep/lock or if I use the app switcher to switch to another app, like Maps.

This wasn't happening yesterday when I was using my phone and listening to the same audio stream in my car with Maps open for navigation.

I have been using Firefox since I first started using computers, so for over fifteen years. Initially, I only used it on my PC, but for the past few years I have also been using it on my iPhone and iPad. Until now, I have been a very satisfied user, but for some time now I have been extremely dissatisfied with Mozilla and Firefox. I have been using Startpage as my search engine for many years and Firefox is set up that way on all my devices. But on Apple devices, every time I open the browser, Google is now set as the search engine again and I have to correct the setting every time. I find this patronising, inconsiderate and extremely rude. If this cannot be changed very quickly, Firefox will no longer be my default browser on any device. I would be very sorry to see that happen, but it really is not acceptable. Are you so short of money that you have to rip off your long-standing users? I would be very grateful for a reasonable and helpful response.

Default search is reset to Google every time I close and reopen Firefox. How do I make Firefox remember my choices? I am setting Brave to be the default search.

Thanks!

After the latest update, my default search engine in Firefox keeps automatically changing to Google, even though I’ve repeatedly reset it to Kagi. This seems like a bug, but let me know if there’s anything I can do on my end to make the change stick!

I am using an iPad. How do you stop firefox from opening a new tab when clicking on a link? I want to it to follow the link in the same tab almost always.

Thanks for you help!

I’ve set up Kagi as my default search engine on Firefox for iOS, but every time I open the app, it seems to revert the default search engine to DuckDuckGo. Then I have to set Kagi as default again. It’s a very strange bug. I’m not sure if it only happens when you set a custom search engine as the default.

Hi! For 2 weeks now I cannot permanently set a default search engine. I've always set Brave as my default search engine in settings. All of a sudden this was changed to DuckDuckGo by Firefox without my knowledge. I can change it back to Brave, but as soon as Firefox is cleared from memory it will revert to DuckDuckGo. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior? As it is now I cannot use Firefox when I always need to change the settings before using it.

iOS 18.5 -> Firefox app Firefox 141.2 (59350) -> Menu (3 horizontal dots bottom near right) -> Bookmarks (top left) -> Add (top right) -> where does this added bookmarks go to? I cannot find it? I suspect Bookmarks are not being added from the phone. I sync between desktop and phone, currently having to add bookmarks via the desktop.

Until the latest Firefox update, I could select the menu options, now in the three dots, and select Share which would give me several sharing options such as text, email, printer, etc. Now there is no option to Share so I have to copy the URL, close my web browser, open another app such as email or text, enter the addressee, paste the URL, send the message, close that app and return to the web browser. 8 steps that used to be completed in 4 steps within the open page in my web browser. Why was Share removed?

How can I stop firefox from autorefreshed and autoreload the page I am reading in my apple Iphone or on my Ipad. For some pages with lots of advertising is quite annoying.

Hello, I simply need to add bookmarks, but when I select Add on the phone Firefox app, nothing happens?

Phone: iPhone 11 iOS 18.5 Firefox app: Firefox 141.2 (59350)

Here's what I'm doing: Phone -> Firefox app -> 3 horizontal dots (bottom right) -> Add (top right.

I then check for the added bookmark, but find no new bookmark in: Phone -> Firefox app -> 3 horizontal dots (bottom right) -> Bookmarks (top left) -> Star tab is selected by default -> Desktop Bookmarks -> Unsorted Bookmarks -> This folder is empty Bookmarks Toolbar -> my bookmarks which are synced with the desktop Bookmarks Menu -> Bookmarks -> This folder is empty
