Firefox za Android Community Forum

Hi there,

I recently tried to customise the firefox icon on my phone (Android v14). The path: Firefox: Settings>Customise>Select App Icon

Unfortunately I have ended up with two duplicates of the firefox app icon (shown in image) that I cannot seem to remove. The only option shown is to uninstall which doesn't sound right

Is there any way to remove the duplicates or else revert back to the original icon?

Let me know if more info is needed.

Many thanks

When I tap a text box to type on some webpages, the page automatically zooms in, making me have to manually zoom out again. I understand why this might be helpful to some people, but I just find it frustrating. Is there a way to disable it? I don't see anything in the accessibility settings and I've tried making my font size bigger, but that didn't work.

I have a Google Pixel 8a, 2025, and of course Google wants me to use all their products. I want to make Firefox my default search engine. But it's not a choice, rather you have to manually enter the information for Firefox and they require an URL to register Firefox to the phone and be used as the default Browser. But Firefox doesn't have any URL that I can find to use, even on the Mozilla Support forum . Can anyone give me direction on what to put in to make Firefox my primary browser? Thanks! Jim

It's not a big deal but kinda annoing. It's working alright on any other app ie the contex menu appers near selected text but in firefox it appears only on the right side. How can it be fixed?

the stuff firefox on android did to the menu messes me up real bad, why do i have to add a button that i will never use and will always misclick because my hands dont work right? why on earth did you mess with everyones muscle memory, its genuinely making me break down and idk how to change it back without losing all my tabs, please help

Okay FIREFOX, update 2/29/2026

1) making complaints to this browser is a nightmare, you guys need to actually do something about making it easier to contact actual support.

2) Firstly, this latest UI update is literally a scam. If you're going to make such a change after years of the same UI being around, users should be well aware of that before the update rolls in.

Secondly, this menu UI should have been an opt-in/out service, NOT DEFAULT. Users should have the option to not use a feature that is actively hostile to a MOBILE experience. That means less button pushing required to speedily access saved content. The current way this menu pops up puts nonsense on top before the actually important parts, namely bookmarks access.

3) bookmarks (specifically CREATING BOOKMARKS). While normal bookmarks access looks the same, creating them is a monster in this app.

This newest iteration sucks, to put it frankly. Where before, the process was simply running down the list to choose the right folder (all those folders & subfolders were already extended), now it requires us to extend and extend and extend and extend. In what world did you guys think this was useful for a mobile phone? Mobile does not lend itself to multiple presses, that's by design.

You guys are making this app look more and more like desktop, and that's a bad design and worse feature for mobile experiences.

Please either update this UI to allow for the legacy design (opt-in/out), or change it back entirely. Right now this app is trudging downwards to an experience people do not want to use.

Attached are screenshots of the current 3dot menu drop-down and the creation/editing of bookmarks. Too much noise for what was actually useful design on the legacy UI.

Description:

A bug-shaped icon appeared on my screen after accidentally enabling a debug setting. I can’t find an option to disable it.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Unknown (enabled by mistake). 2. Icon persists despite restarting.

Browser Version:

- Firefox Nightly 142.0a1 (Build #2016101983) - GV: 142.0a1-20250711091324 - OS: Android

Tried:

- Toggling "Remote Debugging" in Settings → Developer Tools. - Restarting the browser.

If I close a page which is at the bottom, the pop–up notification will prevent me from closing following pages at the bottom. To wait it to dissappear or to move it horizontally out (which takes a rather long distance for fingers, hope you can allow users to customize the distance) are inconvenient.

I wish there was a setting to not have the page refresh every time you go into another app and then come back into this one, it's impossible to multitask and extremely frustrating. It seems to happen on most pages I visit, even YouTube. Especially on pages with forms. It makes moving around on your phone to get info for forms impossible, and it's also just frustrating when you go to answer a text, come back and your progress on a video or form or shopping search has reset and started over, taking you back to the top. Is that sort of thing dependent on the website, or the browser?

A collection item on Android Firefox already has an X, so why allow deletion by swiping left or right? It is WAY TOO EASY to accidentally delete an item by nudging it left or right while clicking it. And there is no warning pop-up. How about an option to disable left/right swipe delete? Or just remove the gestures entirely. Thanks.
