Firefox til iOS Community Forum

Hi

The latest FireFox mobile app on the latest ios does not synch bookmarks anymore. The sync is ON, on all of my devices and also on my desktop computer and the bookmarks sync is turned on where I've installed FireFox. In the past, when I used to bookmark a page on any of my mobile devices, it created a folder called Mobile Bookmarks and added the bookmarks to this folder, then on my desktop, in the bookmark manager, I'd copy them from Mobile Bookmarks folder to the Bookmark Menu folder and the Mobile Bookmarks folder would automatically disappear once it was emptied out.

As of the latest update, the bookmarks on my ios devices just get dumped into the FireFox blank tab workspace. Is this supposed to be a new intended bad design or mishap or annoying feature just creating more work for us?

Also, the Home button at the top of the page, next to the URL bar, has disappeared and it was a major convenience because instead of closing a tab and reopening a new one, I could just press the home button to clear the current tab and start anew. I guess another bad redesign where a developer or ui/ux designer thought it was a useless feature? It was a very useful feature and I see tons of requests on your website to put it back.

Thanks

Hi! I am using MacOS Firefox and configured:

Delete cookies and site data when Firefox closes.

However I could not find this option in Firefox for IOS or iPadOS and therefore unwilling to use it on these platforms. I find it unconvenient manually deleting those data before closing and I hate foreign software installed on my devices.

Is there any settings I have missed?

Last night I updated my iPhone 11 Pro to iOS 26.1

Since the upgrade I'm unable to have Firefox play audio for a music stream I listen to when the phone goes to sleep/lock or if I use the app switcher to switch to another app, like Maps.

This wasn't happening yesterday when I was using my phone and listening to the same audio stream in my car with Maps open for navigation.

Hi, I’m using a iPad Mini 6 with the latest OS and a up to date version of Firefox. When logging into and trying to use Instagram the browser becomes completely unusable and locks the iPad and sometimes it’s so bad it restarts itself. I was wondering if it’s a known issue and being looked at? It’s been happening for quite a few months now ever since the video autoplay options where implemented.

Thanks for any help in advance :)

(PS: all other third party browsers work as intended on my iPad)

The browser won't open a Wall Street Journal article. When opened, the screen goes blank then says "A client-side exception has occurred."

The front pages of the WSJ open with no problem, but pulling up the selected article generates the above.

I don't know what happened, I was using the firefox app an hour ago and came back on to all my tabs gone. Poof into the abyss. I didn't clear anything or close any tabs, I'm not sure how this happened. I clear my history pretty frequently but haven't in a couple days. Even when I've cleared my history in the past, all my open tabs remained so I don't think there's a correlation? These tabs were NOT in the private section and unfortunately I want signed in on the app. I looked up to see if there had been any recent crashes and I didn't see anything. I'm honestly so devastated, I had some of these tabs for a year and they all important to me 😭 I tried to look on this forum for help but most of the answers, seem to be directed toward those who had this issue on a desktop. Again, I am using the firefox app on my iPhone.

Does anyone know if I can get them back? Or see if they went somewhere else. I literally have nothing opened in private that I can see, and like I said, all my tabs in the general tabs section have disappeared. Am I cooked or can this be restored? TIA!!

As of this Morning Wed 5th Nov 2025, message content in my eBay account wont display. Instead I am getting a Red Circle with a red bar symbol when I click on the Message title.

Hello, I’ve recently switched to Firefox on my iPhone 13, running iOS 18.5. And for some reason I can’t seem to add bookmarks on my phone. I can add them fine on desktop but on my phone when I tap the “add a bookmark” star nothing happens.

I’ve been unable to find a simple way to disable A.I. suggestions in searches. I find this force feeding of A.I. suggestions ridiculous Thus, after ver 20 years I deleted Firefox from all my computer and phone.

Back in the days I changed from the Microsoft browser to Mozilla, to get away from updates that made no sense and that the Microsoft team couldn’t even explain themselves. Now unfortunately Im in the same place with Mozilla. To remove the Home Button makes no sense, whoever did it, will not be able to explain, what positiv has been achieved by doing it, and asking for help is a waste of time, as we don’t get any useful answer. Spending 1 hours looking through all material written by Mozilla on this subject, I even found a person writing “it was done to give the users easy access to their Home Page” and then I just had to check, that I wasn’t by mistake talking to Microsoft.

Until recently firedox handled this (see attaches ). It no longer display, just times out. If i go to same ip (which is on my network) with firefox on win 11 or even chrome on ios no issue. Site displays.. I have removed cache, website data etc.. please advise.

As per title, browsing to my grafana server botches the saved password autofill by suggesting tens if not more of other saved passwords for the domain - despite the correct password already being set to be for the grafana webserver's URL correctly.

On desktop, this is not an issue and the autofill option is only the grafana account - which is correct.

This issue existed in the past in Firefox but I am experiencing this problem on iOS. Here are some old threads from back when this was a problem on PC after some feature update:
