Firefox til Android Community Forum

I use wiktionary a lot on my phone. When I'm looking for a Word, the Wiktionary search bar offers suggestions while typing. However, when I try to select one of the suggestions (since this would be much easier than completing the word I've been typing) the dropdown suggestions box disappears. (Firefox for Android. Phone Samsung S22, Android 14, OneUi 6.1, Firefox 134.0.1) I have no idea whether this is an issue about how Wiktionary is coded, or how Firefox works, or about Android os but in any case I'm weary of this and I'm considering installing another browser on my phone just for wiktionary. I've been using Firefox since the beginning I guess, and since I don't want to use any other browser I hope this issue is resolved as soon as possible.

I would like to request how to get Firefox update notices on a Samsung Galaxy Phone. In "Notifications" I have allowed Firefox to send notifications. I always have Google Play Store disabled and the only way I can check for Firefox updates is to enable Google Play Store and see if there are any updates available for Firefox. I don't have this issue with my PC. Any suggestions or information will be very much appreciated. Thank you Shaun.

Long pressing the Android back button on the navigation bar no longer displays the tab's history on Firefox Android.

Hello

I have a small problem. When I click MENU and Bookmarks, I can't access my synced bookmarks from my PC computer. But when I edit one bookmark, I see all folders from my PC to put in. Normally I can't see all my folders with bookmarks from my PC.

Please help ;-) Phone = Huawei P20 Pro Android EMUI 12

Now it's completely impossible to open PDFs outside Firefox, as I could do until the last couple of beta versions.

This trend is going on since a few years ago, from bad to worst. The whole design of the PDFs download process is bad. PDFs should be treated by FF as any other file: download and open with the system default PDF viewer. Imposing Firefox's internal PDF viewer as mandatory for downloaded PDFs is nonsense.

Niestety nie mogę skopiować moich wielu ZAKŁADEK. Gdzie jest umieszczony plik z kopią Zakładek, jak się dostać do tego pliku np. w Chrome ??

When filling out an online form I sometimes need to switch to another app to get info. E.g. to find my bank account number.

However when I return back to Firefox the form often clears it even disappears and Firefox takes me to back to the previous page meaning I have to start again.

This is annoying if I only need one piece of info as I can cut and paste it but if I need two it makes it impossible to complete the form

Is there a setting I need to change?

We just got a mew desktop and I want to sync by android phone Firefox to the desktop so I can retain my bookmarks, passwords, and tabs. I have synced between my phone and my old desktop with no problem. But now when I try to sync my phone to the desktop, all my sync options are greyed out and it won't let me select anything?

I used to be able to hold the back button down so I could see a short history for the current tab, and I'm not sure if it was an update or a bug, but does anyone know if it's possible to enable it in about:config? It's really useful when you're trying to go back but a redirect is preventing you.

For some reason on android firefox I'm no longer able to pull up a tab's history by holding down the back button. I can still press to go back, but there's no way to either go back several pages or to go forward if I have already gone back.

On the latest Firefox Nightly builds (I use Nightly for extensions), holding the back button in the Android navigation bar no longer brings up previous pages, like it does when holding the back button in the three dot menu. Is there a config option to bring this back?
