Browser goes back randomly and deletes tab history.

Firefox til Android Historik

The latest update severely broke the app. At random, tabs will suddenly go back one, two, sometimes even several steps back in their history, and it is impossible to go back forward to where I was; the "forward" button is grayed out and it's like I never left the page I was suddenly thrown back to for no reason.

This can happen right after following a link, or it can happen several seconds after a page has fully loaded. When this happens, sometimes trying to follow _any_ link sends Firefox back to the same page until the app is forcefully killed and restarted.

Other people have described identical experiences in the Android reviews. Please revert the latest update. It's unusable. I have to go back to Chrome for the first time in over a decade.

I have tried disabling all extensions, and the problem persists.

Hi Nick,

Sorry for that! Our engineers are investigating the issue.

Meanwhile, if you have some time, we'd greatly appreciate if you could check the following workaround:

  • Download Beta or Nightly and see if the issue persists there.
  • If the issue persists in Beta/Nightly, go to about:config (just type this in your address bar as a regular URL) and flip fission.autostart to false. Does that resolve the issue?
