I need to change some config settings to prevent some problems that corrupt the screen or crash Firefox on android almost every day. I found that using a Bluetooth reduces the frequency of these problems, but it still happens and is very frustrating.

When starting firefox on android and pc, it will take a long time (in relation to other browsers) to display any webpage I gave set as default. Even Google search takes a long time to display. It's not the speed at which te page is loaded, is the time between the start of firefox and any action. Even the adresbar stays empty during this time as if firefox is stalled. I've installed a fresh Firefox instalation and removed all add-ons (recommended or not) and Firefox still start ms slow. On my pc I can see the cpu and ssd speeds and for a second of 15, while Firefox loads, the cpu usage seems normal (6 core with no other program using all cpu cores or without any cores above 15%) and the ssd (NVMe) isn't even above 1%.

And with the android version, switching temporary to another program (to look something up) causes the webpage te become blank or black and requires an refresh (for instance, if I switch to another app, this page will be blank, or back and all this text wil be gone because I have to reload thus page) it only affects the web pages, not Firefox itself (the menu an adresbar wil stil display correct) and the refresh, no matter how fast it loads after the initial firefox start, Will be as slow as if firefox is (again) starting.

I do not want to switch to another browser. Even with these annoying problems, but if these problems can be removed, I will enjoy firefox even more!

Whatever changes were implemented around start of March 2026 have made bookmarks almost completely unusable for me on Firefox Android. I have a set of bookmarks shared between my phone and my synced desktops, and they're all in folders within the Bookmarks Menu folder under bookmarks.

Since the change I mentioned, when I go to edit the folder a mobile webpage bookmark is in, it shows me the bookmark details, and when I click to change the folder, it shows me the Bookmarks Menu folder and the Bookmarks Toolbar folder and one other folder. Normally at this point I would expand the Bookmarks menu folder to see the subfolders and select one. But after I click on Bookmarks Menu it takes many minutes to expand (I don't know how long; I needed to do other things so I went away and came back to it) and many minutes to expand any lower layers in the hierarchy.

This is completely unacceptable. If you offer a bookmarks service, it should be possible to expand the folders of bookmarks within 3 seconds. It is completely impractical for it to take multiple minutes to expand each folder level, especially since Firefox always collapses all the folders before the next time I try to edit a bookmark folder.

Please fix this ASAP!!

Hello, Android app settings for Firefox reports 1.43. GB of "user data". This excludes cache, which I have cleared. As I do most of my browsing on my desktop (as I am now doing), this firefox-under-android has been little used. I have 1009 browsing history addresses. I usually select "necessary cookies only". I have no extensions. All storage based site settings are set to "ask to allow": I don't allow. I have cleared cashed images and files as well as downloads. There appears to be no means in the Android app of managing cookies on a site-by-site basis. What can I do to minimise user data? Thank you for your attention.

Recently updated the app and now the search bar is broken and doesn't show any suggestions from the web/engine. It doesn't matter what engine I'm using as I've checked multiple to see if the problem persists. The only thing that works is Firefox suggest and all it brings up is some obscure random searches from my browsing history from years ago instead of suggestions from the Web on top. If I enter settings, toggle things on and off, then return to new tab then it will work for one time, but then it's back to how it was.

I do not use auto rotate to switch to landscape format but the manual rotate button which shows up when you disable auto rotate. When i play a video in the Firefox Browser on Android and rotate with the button it rotates to landscape. When I then play a video (for example on youtube, but not only there) and open it in fullscreen and go out off fullscreen and want to rotate back to portrait the button just does not appear and i am stuck in portait format. I need to close Firefox and start it again for it to work properly again.

I hope I am right in asking for help here since this problem does not occur with Chrome but if I am wrong please tell me where to ask for help.

So when I did a search in Firefox Android via Google I noticed that the search results were in chinese. I checked on my other browsers (Opera and Chrome) and their search results are still in English. Yes, I am using WARP by 1.1.1.1 but if that's the cause then the other broswers should have been in chinese too. I tried doing clear cache then clear storage but it was still in chinese when I did my first search in that resetted Firefox. Might be relevant information: I had uBlock Origin installed when I first experienced it and after I did the clear cache and storage thing.

Web site link: https://standingstones.org/viewer.html

When i view on a phone in portrait all is good. Similarly if I rotate to portrait mode it is still good. When I then go back to portrait the scaling gets all screwed up and the page looks very bad. This did not use to happen about 3-4 months ago so it is a recent problem although not sure quite when this broke.

I've attached 3 images, the first showing the incorrect rendering in portrait and the other showing good portrait and landscape.
