How can the android FF app not have a way of showing progress of downloads? I find this absolutely bizarre, when every other browser does this. It's critical information to have. You have no idea how much has downloaded or how long is left, the downloads window is just blank until it's fully completed downloading an item.

Hi

if you swipe down from the top of the screen while a download is taking place, you will be able to see the Android download progress information.

I hope that this helps.

Thanks for your reply, but on my Pixel 6 Pro this does not appear. Never has on the Firefox app.

I have just tried to download a Linux .iso (a very large file) using Firefox for Android, and I could see the download progress notification with a progress bar.
