Firefox za Android Community Forum

I use Firefox now a days. I had noticed a thing the webpage are not rendering properly in android or you can say not allignment properly (i had attached reference photo). And there should be improved in translation for language for japanese and hindi(not there in Firefox right now). So kind support the issue

Dear all,

I just found that in Firefox 139 for Android the menu buttons "Install" and "Add to Home Screen" disappeared. I tried deleting the cache, reinstalling, restarting the smartphone. I tried different websites, included well-known PWA apps (i.e. https://github.com/mdn/pwa-examples ).

I'm on Lineage 22.2.

The community guides still report the availability of this feature: https://mzl.la/3p7ltJx

Am I missing something?

Example with facebook.com in the images. Note that on x.com a popup asks me if I want to installa the app version of the website, but the menu options are still missing. It's only website I found where that popup shows up.

For the last 2ish months, Firefox will refresh the page if I just place my finger on the screen.

If I put my finger on the screen (not swiping down) the refresh wheel will pop up and refresh the page.

It doesn't happen all the time, maybe once or twice a day, but it happens on every page and causes me to lose stuff like where I was on a page and what I was typing. It doesn't do it when the keyboard is up.

Any suggestion as to what's wrong with it?

Hi. When I go to YouTube.com on the Firefox mobile browser, I cannot for the life of me find my notifications. On the Firefox PC browser, there is a bell icon in the top right of the screen, but not only is it missing in the mobile browser, I cannot find any button or section labeled "notifications." Please advise.

When using the UBLOCK ORIGIN extension i cant Join the app. i need to turn it off, then I can join the Firefox nightly. I need help because I use this extension so much.

Whilst viewing news stories in Google, I keep getting pages that do not load, so I go to settings – apps- Firefox, scroll down to memory and clear the cache. I go bag to Google new click the link and most of the time I am taken to the page and can read the article (but not every time). But the page not loading happens frequently and it is becoming a pain having to clear the cache over and over again. Is there a shortcut I can use to reach Firefox memory or is there a way of stopping Firefox to clear the cache as it is created.

Hi,

Firefox android provides no master password/primary password protection so passwords in the Firefox password manager are protected only by your lockscreen swipe(yeah, I thought the same thing you just thought).

I need full protection like on Desktop or I can't sync my passwords to Firefox. However, when temporarily enabling password sync on desktop, for example between two desktop devices it also temporarily enables it on android Firefox that you might have synced as well. The upshot of this for me is that I now have all my passwords on android without wanting them there for the above reasons.

So, how do I remove all passwords on my firefox android, without having to reinstall Firefox on the phone?

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.

I would like to request that you urgently add more languages to your roster for translation especially Japanese! I would think that this day and age these language was would be fairly easy to add since there's so many different libraries and this has been done and is offered on so many other browsers. My otherwise really enjoy your product and would like to offer my gratitude and appreciation for Mozilla Firefox and the effort and work you guys have put in. Quality product keep up the good work!

This was the only way I could download Mozilla from F-Droid. Thanks heaps guys/gals. Google has been giving me hell ugh!

I also have the Google Play Store regular issue Firefox browser. Do you recommend I keep both as I'm definitely keeping this fennec issue?

Every time I try to go full screen on firefox for the youtube site, it will quit the Firefox app, or turn into a black screen with a tiny bit in the corner, or go into the wrong orientation. After maybe the third to fifth try of full screening, it will finally work. I had this issue with the firefox app for all my phones (all Oppo, so unsure if this is device specific). Thank you for looking into it!

Can't install yandex.ru mailbox to Firefox for Android. Using generated stecial application password did not get s result anyway

I left a review and was asked to post this here so here goes. Firefox on android is currently the highest user of power on my Google Pixel 8 android phone. From the battery usage data (since last full charge) Firefox has used: Screen time: 2hrs 33mins Background: 5hrs 46mins Totalling 19% battery usage. Even though I turned OFF allow app to run in background!! Before I turned this off, the battery usage was similar. In comparison: WhatsApp -the next highest- is: Screen time: 1hr 42mins Background: 17hrs 52mins Totalling 14% battery usage. With allow app to run in background ON.

The only thing I can think of causing this is the annoying (in my opinion) way that Firefox does not close down all open tabs when I close the app (by hitting the square control button and hitting clear all open apps button) are they still keeping Firefox running in the background as they refresh?

PLEASE add a setting to close all tabs when closing the app. When I close Firefox on my PC and then open it again, I don't get my old tabs, so it must be possible to do on android.

Moving a bookmark on Firefox on mobile device when opening the bookmark edit if you want to move a bookmark for example for Mobile bookmarks to Desktop bookmarks:

In my case I first click edit, click on the location and edit > Folder and I am showed unlike when I browse my bookmarks where folders are closed, all folders in hierarchy are opened which make for an endless scrolling for minutes trying to find the folder I want to move my bookmark to, as a poweruser who has thousands of folders and bookmarks.

There are ofher browsers where this is reversed and easier to move a bookmark because all folders are closed. Is this a feature that can be added to Firefox?

Also the setting saying you can display bookmarks on home screen, actually its a scrolling banner with most recently saved bookmarks. I miss the old classic Firefox where you could set your new tab and home page as your bookmarks list making it super easy and quick to get everything you need right in front of you without needing extra steps to enter your bookmark lists.

If this is not the right forum please direct me where I can forward this feature request

I am using Mozilla in Android.

Collection is a handy tool to open commonly required websites. While selecting a saved website to open, I have unknowingly selected X and my collection got deleted.

How to recover them. There can be a better way.

Can there be an Undo option. Avoid both Opening or deleting option in one line. Separate screen for Management of Collection.

Thanks.
