Firefox na Android Community Forum

Hello,

I recently switched to Linux and have been having trouble getting my bookmarks from my android device to sync to my desktop (Linux Mint). I have bookmarks enabled on the sync menu on both platforms, but I can't get them to sync over to my desktop from mobile at all; my only current option would be to painstakingly open them one-by-one from my desktop sync with the open tabs viewer (as I can't open all open tabs at once on Linux Firefox for some reason).

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just to tell me that this feature doesn't work on Linux.

Thanks, - Qwin

A wildcard custom domain configured in Firebase App Hosting works in most browsers and devices, but fails to resolve on Android + Firefox. The apex domain and explicitly added subdomains work everywhere, but any subdomain covered by the wildcard returns Address Not Found on Android Firefox.

Project / Domain • Firebase project: go-flock-beta-92ec0 • Custom domain (apex): invitoz.com • Wildcard mapping: *.invitoz.com • Example failing host: abc.invitoz.com • Example working: invitoz.com, explicitly mapped subdomains

Environment • Failing: Android + Firefox (latest stable), tested on multiple devices & networks • Working: Android Chrome, iOS Safari, iOS Chrome, Desktop Chrome, Desktop Firefox • Hosting type: Firebase App Hosting (Next.js) • DNS: Configured per Firebase’s wildcard instructions

Expected behavior

Wildcard subdomains (*.invitoz.com) should resolve and serve the deployed app on all browsers and devices.

Actual behavior • On Android + Firefox: “Address Not Found” (NXDOMAIN). • On other browsers/devices: Works as expected. • Adding the subdomain individually (not using wildcard) makes it work on Android Firefox too.

DNS configuration • Verified wildcard DNS per Firebase instructions (CNAME *.invitoz.com → ghs.googlehosted.com). • DNS has propagated globally (>24h). • dig abc.invitoz.com returns correct CNAME/A records from desktop & Chrome Android. • On Android Firefox, resolution fails (browser shows NXDOMAIN).

Diagnostics • Works on Android Chrome, so network is fine. • Problem appears isolated to Android Firefox → possible DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) resolver issue with ghs.googlehosted.com for wildcard domains in Firebase App Hosting. • Apex & explicit subdomains are fine — issue is only with wildcard DNS in this browser/OS combo.

Impact

Dynamic event subdomains (e.g., party.invitoz.com) fail to load for Android Firefox users, which is a critical portion of our audience.

Request 1. Confirm if Firebase App Hosting wildcard domains are known to have compatibility issues with Android Firefox. 2. Investigate DNS/TLS handling for wildcard → ghs.googlehosted.com in App Hosting. 3. Suggest any specific DNS records (A/AAAA) to improve compatibility.

The option "Add to Home screen" the webpage option is not working anymore. Instead there is "Add App to Home screen" which cannot save the webpage link on the home screen (Android 15). Firefox on Android recently changed this behavior. When a site supports a Progressive Web App (PWA), the "Add to Home screen" option will often show as "Install app" instead. Firefox thinks you want to install an "app" rather than just a webpage shortcut. Can the developers please fix this?

Hello,

Recently I switched from Windows 10 to Linux Mint, and I am having difficulty opening all synced tabs at once on my desktop firefox. Specifically, I have tabs open on my Android device in firefox that I can see are synced to my desktop, but I can't open them all at the same time; I would have to click on each to open them. There is no right-click dialog available and I cannot see any other ways to open in batches.

Is this a limitation of firefox on Linux or on Android? (Apologies if this is in the wrong board)

Thank you,

I have tidied up my passwords. I removed all from Firefox for Android on my phone, then deleted expired ones on my laptop. Then I turned syncing back on, thinking my desktop passwords would be available on my phone. They aren't. What's going wrong?

I seem to be unable to dispay desktop site on my galaxy tab despite toggling it on. I can do this in Chrome. Can you advise me how to do this as I thought it was now set as default for tab users? Thank you

I would like private tabs to stay open when I close the browser so that I can return to them later. Until recently, this was the behavior my version of Firefox (139) was exhibiting. But now, using 141, it's closing all private tabs every time I switch to another app. I saw that starting in version 129, there is a "Close private tabs" option that you can toggle off. However, I do not see this setting in version 141 for Android. How can I get the behavior back of persisting private tabs?

Hallo, I wanted to deactivate my History on my Android smartphone, but when i looked in the Settings i didn't find anything to deactivate the History, so i searched on the Internet and found somethings but the points that they talked about weren't in my settings. So i wanted to ask if you could deactivate your History on a android phone?

Thank you.

With with many tabs open sites like YouTube just stop loading and I have to kill all tabs kill Firefox relaunch it and then the YouTube video will play otherwise it just hangs

Firefox mistakenly consumes ram when many tabs are open it should consume minimal ram and only load ram when a tab is actively being used

I love it. I using samsung j2 prime my old phone and only mozilla who good when i open chatgpt and others. no caution like 'your browser isnt private blahbla' thanks a lot.

1. Firefox is blocking legitimate websites 2. Firefox automatically redirects my attempt to reach Amazon.co.uk back into the app. I have to access the main account and sign in if I want to buy Kindle books. The app is blocked from allowing this.

Allow disabling side swipe in Firefox. More often than not it does the wrong thing. I can take an extra 0.023 seconds to do it the old fashioned way without errorr
