Hi. When I download and use this app, it enables location services by default, and when I turn it off it tells me that doing so may negatively affect the app's function. I was told FireFox was the best browser for privacy, but it makes me share my location with the app by default? Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

For the love of God and all that is holy, make me not pissed off. I have a red star over my Firefox browser icon, yet when I go into it, it does not direct me to what needs addressing. The red star will not go away. Fix your shit. You've also pissed me off further, for the fact that I have to resort to swearing.

changing camera and microphone access settings in Firefox

In my phone's notifications, I have one that says "Camera Is On in Firefox". I can't get it to close. I want to revoke permissions/access to my camera and microphone in Firefox's browser. After searching through my settings, and searching online, I have found no answers. I WANT MY CAMERA OFF.

I have an Android, using version 118.2.0.

And it's RIDICULOUS that I have to "create an account" to even ASK a question to SUPPORT! Your "Help" section frankly is useless. No "help" at all.

I am constantly getting notifications from Firefox and cannot cancel them. They appear on my login screen and on home screen (see screenshot). Cannot swipe them away and cant find way in FF. Only way to get them to go away is to restart phone.

Usually notification comes from an active web page but now getting them from Firefox itself. Current one just says "About home".

Re-allow a website to access my location on mobile

Hi, Recently a website I use on my phone for work popped up with the little box asking for permission to access my location, and just out of habit I immediately denied it and ticked 'Don't ask again'. However, that was dumb because I do really need that website to be able to access my location and I can't figure out how to turn it on again. If I go into Settings=>Website Permissions=>Location, which I've read in other places I should do, my only two options are 'block' or 'ask for permission', so I've changed it back to 'ask for permission' but it hasn't asked me again and it's still not recording my location, despite restarting to tab, broswer, phone etc. What can I do? Thanks:)

Hello all,

Under Lineage OS v19.1 for Pixel 3a, no OpenGapp or alt installed

For Firefox Android v106.1, location is enabled for Firefox under App permission

when you allow the website to access GPS within Firefox eg Google Maps, you will see the green dot on the top right of the phone like it is using GPS for around 3 -4 seconds and then it will vanish. Within Firefox it will just keep spinning like trying to get location.

It does not matter which site you use, other website does the same.

However if you use the default browser within LineageOS, the GPS works fine with Google maps and others.

It looks like a Firefox bug but I need confirmation. thanks.

For some reason, the "Location" site permission will spontaneously change to "Blocked" after some time on the site.

This seemingly only happens when another permission is in use (e.g. Camera).

Hi. After your most recent update to the FireFox app on the playstore, I have noticed that the location setting on my app came enabled. Upon clearing it, it tells me that doing so will decrease the functionality of the app, and when I clear the app data the location permission is re-enabled. Is there anyway I can fix this? This is a big privacy concern for me.

I am currently trying to customize the Firefox browser for Android and have encountered a hurdle. Specifically, I want to change the 'permissions.default.image' setting according to the host of the website being visited.

I have searched through the source code, but I'm unable to locate where this preference is being modified, which is adding to my difficulties. I'm uncertain about the next steps to take.

Could anyone please guide me on how to implement this functionality, or direct me towards relevant resources or documentation that could help me? Any leads or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards

I've already attempted to implement this in the GeckoEngineSession in the override fun onLoadRequest method, as that's where the host is loaded. Unfortunately, I haven't had any success with this approach.
