Firefox til iOS Community Forum

I am having an every day problem Google getting into my iPhone and causing me problems.

I have had to go to Apple store and reset my iPhone. Nothing has changed I am still having too issues.

Good Morning

I would like to change the download folder to a different location as it can be achieved in Firefox for Mac. But how?

Thank you very much!

The Firefox browser I was using failed to back up the synchronization data of the domestic version due to negligence in reinstalling the new version. Starting from May 24th, after logging into the domestic version account, data synchronization cannot be achieved. (Currently, all downloads automatically redirect to the international version, and the login account is also the international version account. However, the domestic version data was not backed up before, and it is necessary to log in to the domestic version again to back up the data.) . Is there any expert who can offer a solution? The data of eight years has not been backed up. Urgent

1週間ほど前にFirefoxがアップデートされたのか、インターフェースの見た目が変わりました。 それ以降、検索バーに文字を入力すると、入力中のテキストの背景に濃いグレーの色が表示されるようになり、文字（黒）が非常に見づらくなって困っています。

この背景色の変更は、Firefoxの設定で元に戻したり、調整したりすることは可能でしょうか？ あるいは、ユーザースタイルシートなどを使う必要があるのでしょうか。

使用環境： ・Firefox バージョン：139.2 ・OS：iOS 18.5

検索するたびにすごくストレスなので、アドバイスいただけますと幸いです。ただ複雑な設定などは自分には対応できそうにないので、解決できなそうならブラウザを変更するしかないと思っています。 どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

Hello,

I blocked the pop-up windows from settings but it doesn’t work. Some websites keep spamming these windows and its annoying. Is that function limited? Is it just an option that doesn’t work?

Hi,

I am trying to add Brave as the search engine on the Firefox settings in iOS, however, I continue to receive an error message stating “Please fill all fields correctly” I am using the below URL:

https://search.brave.com/search?q=%25s&source=desktop

And

search.brave.com or https://search.brave.com

But none are working and I continue to get the same error message

Hi I’ve been a dedicated Firefox user since as long as I can remember across all my devices. Since buying an iPad Pro and setting up with Firefox, as I have on all my devices, on the iPad Firefox performance is really poor. Websites often freeze and downloading pdfs from websites or from SharePoint etc. often does not work. An empty file will be saved. When switching to another browser I don’t experience these problems and I have no other software problems on the iPad. Running Firefox 139.1 on iPadOS 18.5 on a 13” iPad Pro M4 (MVX33HC/A)

Can you please let me know what your proposed fixes are for this? Thank you and kind regards Ewald

The problem began when I was browsing Google maps through Firefox, it gave the prompt to view it through the Google maps app instead. Google maps needed an update, I was on low data mode, I got impatient and canceled that update, then somehow Firefox wasn't allowing me to finish a sentence in the search bar afterwards. Now it doesn't let me open new tabs, exit out of already open tabs, or access the browser settings without freezing for 3 seconds and going to the home screen.

I've updated Firefox to version 139.2, I've searched for some crash log information for iPhone 11 and didn't understand it too well (one suggested to search from Privacy and Security->Analytics and Improvements->Analytics data and to search for "client" but got nothing). I couldn't figure out what more to do with the app from my home screen or settings, I turned my phone off and on yesterday yet it still happened. Any advice would be appreciated, I'm not experienced with technical things and don't want to risk having my bookmarks or passwords be erased in any way.

IOS version is 18.4.1 if that helps.

In addition to the hack concerns. I was curious if and where, I can see a list of devices that I am signed in

       Please  am advise  and thank you once more!

I was searching on Firefox and encountered a pop up “your iPhone has been hacked” and an ‘OK’, which you are encouraged to use based on immediate attention being required.

      This pop up has frozen my app and I cannot close this tab nor can I access any other tabs I have in use. Troubleshooting tried- closed the app several times and also turned my iPhone off and back on and get the same result. I cleared my website search history and use the following security’s settings:  prevent cross tracking, Hide IP address: (from) trackers and websites, fraudulent website warning, not secure connection warning. I am using the iPhone 14 Pro Max and am running on the most current iOS: 18.5. These settings are for safari . 
      Has anyone experienced this situation and know how to close the hacker message tab and what else one might need/want to do in response to this pop up? 
      Any advise would be most appreciated!

Kindly, LaL

Is there a way to clear all of the [List] Reading List on Firefox for iOS other than one half-swipe at a time?

I've tried to enable the Reading List sidebar on the desktop version via about:config, but I can't seem to find the sidebar.

During the configuration of my iPad, I noticed that there is no option to add a custom query URL, like it exists under Android. Therefore, after adding the custom search engine (and when it's chosen) the search suggestions are missing. While I know that there are technical limitations regarding Firefox on IOS/IPadOS, I don't think/hope that this is one of them.

I tried send link to device to device for the first time today from my Firefox for desktop to my iPad. Both devices are synced to the same Firefox account and currently signed in. I get a "Sent" pop-up notification after I do the Send on the desktop web browser, but there is no notification of any kind on the iPad.

My searches for this on the web, and on this site, show me only the 'how to send' steps, and I see nothing that is 'where to look for received links'. What should I expect to see on the iOS device when I do this send?

Dear Firefox-Support,

while using the iPad App in version 138.0 to generate a secure password today, this password was not saved. I was using the change password function on an account previously not known to my Firefox account. When I acknowledged the password change and was prompted to sign in in the same tab, neither the function that should remember the new password within the same session worked, nor was it saved with the other passwords.

I think it is unlikely you can help me find this password again, but I would like to make you aware, that this szenario might be an issue.
