Hi

What version of Firefox and Android is installed on your device?

Also, try clearing cached storage, which will be similar to: open Android Settings, tap “Apps”, find “Firefox” and clear the cached storage (not data!).

more options

Firefox version is 90.1.1 and Android version is 8.1.0 I used to clean the cache frequently then also it crashes.

Hi

You seem to be on a similar set up to me.

Do you have many other apps open when this happens?

Can you give me a list of sites that you have open when this happens?

more options

No. Just one or two apps may be running in the background. I don't remember every sites name cause I closed every tab but few sites I do remember such as Reddit Instagram Javatpoint Tutorialpoints Geeksforgeek Stackoverflow ... and so on.

Hi

Thank you for those reports, really useful.

Have you installed any other apps on your Android device?

more options

Anything to do with online payments or downloads?

There is mention in the reports that you filed of an separate Android app that may be causing this issue.

more options

Yes there is an app for online payment. But I don't think that should be the problem cause it's has been there before Firefox.

more options

Our developers have filed a bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1721834 which you can follow for progress.

You may also wish to try removing the app that you mention or looking for a replacement, not just to improve the performance of Firefox for Android, but (from what I understand) the performance of your device more generally.
