Firefox za Android Community Forum

So I have noticed it for a couple of years now, and still this issue isn't solved. I am attaching the screenshot. When my phone is in an idle state, the Firefox app is in the background and my screen is switched off. Then the Android device should go into doze mode and save battery, but that doesn't happen due to Firefox. There is an audio wake lock, and it doesn't let the phone go into doze mode. If I always try to close the tabs when I am leaving Firefox, then yeah, it gets solved, but that defeats the purpose of having a powerful smartphone.

Just recently Firefox has gotten really slow to open. Sometimes it won't open at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it which helped for about 2 tries. I thought it might be a problem with my phone but chrome loads instantly. Once it does open it's slow to go wherever I try to go and sometimes just quits and takes me back to the home screen.

Running Nightly (153.0a1 (Build #2016163271), a4d50ea7cb22bb9324cc8d62c6a03bfe902ea170, GV: 153.0a1-20260526143706, AS: 153.20260525050231, OS: Android 16) and Samsung reports the app is frequently crashing; additionally and randomly, websites won't load... No error message, they just seem to hang.

I'm more than willing to provide logs if someone walks through the collection process with me.

Hi, Being that OLED and AMOLED screens have become more frequent in recent years (and seem to be coming to stay) I am perplexed by the seeming impossibility of finding a way to make Firefox more friendly towards these devices.

I would like to use Firefox with a true black theme on its UI that would waste less battery and go easier on my screen's long-time durability. However, not only do I find that there is no option to do this in-built on the app, there isn't even support for external add-ons or thèmes that could get the job done!

There really shouldn't be any reason why, even if the Mozilla team are unwilling to code the option into the default settings, it couldn't be done through a user-made theme.

Instead, the solutions I've come across seem to span from third-party apps that require rooting the device to modifications made directly by decompiling the APK!

I know this was more of a complaint than a request, but heavy battery usage is a *valid* reason not to use something like a browser, which is likely to accrue several hours of use each charge cycle.

This *is* something Mozilla should care about.

TLDR;

Please point me to a way of making the Firefox UI AMOLED-black that does not require me to mess with the internals of an APK or void my phone's guarantee.

Sorry for the essay.

Every time I have a slow download speed that causes failure after interruption, I have to open the system's own browser, but the system's built-in browser is dozens of times the download speed, and there has never been a failure. The web page opening speed I have tested with the same search engine Bing search shows that the system only takes 3 seconds. Although the mobile version of Firefox also opens in seconds, it takes six seconds. I like Firefox very much, but it would be better if the mobile version could be improved.

Firefox runs in background even after menu quit option with clear all browser history (proper exit). Firefox heats my phone while using. I am using Android 13 phone.

I just wanted to point out that the browser on Android has too many processes running in the background—I’ve never seen anything like it before, and it doesn’t seem normal to me. I’ll attach some screenshots of the processes on my phone.

If i search a topic, then search another topic, find a relevant page, then scroll back, it scrolls back to the original search topic and not what I last searched, then I have to type it again.

Firefox on my wife's phone keeps randomly opening. How do I figure out what's causing this. First we noticed it happened when she plugs in an auxgzilery battery pack but then it's randomly opening anytime. What should I try to fix this. I thought I would remove and reinstall Firefox but I just figured the settings would remain as they are.

On my Samsung Galaxy s6 when I try to add to the home screen and then choose the option to tap and hold and drag to the screen, it just closes the app it is nothing. It doesn't work. The text options from the pop-up do work but the main graphic where it's trying to get you to drag and drop it does not work.
