Hello, I am trying to sync browser bookmarks bidirectionally from PC to Cell devices. The instructional window that pops up on the PC says to: click the three dots in the Android Firefox cell, 1) Choose "I already have Firefox for mobile" & click Continue 2) Window popup appears "Sync Firefox on your phone or tablet" 2a) Open Firefox on cell phone 2b) Go to the Menu (three dots) 2c) Tap "Sync and save data" 2d) Tap "Ready to scan" My issue is, I do not see option 2c, Tap "Sync and save data. Thus, I cannot scan the OCR code to pair up the devices because in the Firefox app on the Android cell (Samsung Galaxy S22+), there is no option to sync and save data. Please advise. Thank you

No password autofill on Firefox for Android (Samsung Galaxy S23)

Hi, I have Firefox for Android running on my Samsung Galaxy S23 and the windows version on my PC. Both are logged in to the same Firefox account and are syncing fine. On my PC, the password manager is working as expected and autofilling website passwords.

However, on my phone, I can't seem to get the autofill to work. I have been needing to go into the password manager and copy the password every time. It will ask to save the password and the password manager has everything stored as expected. Tried various things like logging in and logging out but nothing has fixed it. I did notice that Samsung Pass often pops up during the website login process and was wondering if this could be the reason Firefox password manager is not working for autofill.

Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Auto-Reload Tabs in Firefox Android

Hey everyone

I had his problem for a while now and don't find a solution for the mobile version:

There are more and more websites that have 2-factor-authebtufication etc. With Firefox right now, when I start the login process and leave/minimize the app to go read my sms code / confirm my login attempt in another app (paypal, etc), and then go back to firefox, the login page has reloaded and often that means it left the confirmation screen and got back to the login page where I have to put my credentials in again. *endless circle*.

I read about it a bit and it might have different problems, I heard it can me a phone/bsttery optimization problem, but it almost certainely is the Firefox Settings, cause with Chrome it works fine! At rhis point, this happens so often that I needed to change my default browser, very sadly. Any suggestions?

Running Poco F6, HyperOs 2.0.2.0, Android 15, Firefox 138.04

I have a Huawei P30 Pro and beta Firefox browser. When I try to view my passwords on Firefox, it brings up a lock screen password prompt. This page requires my password, but the password is not recognized, even though it is correct. The lock screen password works in other situations but not in Firefox

I'm experiencing an issue with Firefox where my saved passwords from my desktop aren't syncing to my Android phone. Pressing the "Sync Now" button doesn't trigger any action. I've tried several troubleshooting steps, including removing and readding the device, force stopping the app, clearing cache and data, and manually syncing again, but nothing has worked. It seems like a bug. Any suggestions?

Hi there,

I am using Fennec from F-Droid (build 1340020). I noticed that many Brahmic scripts on webpages are shown as boxes. I don't recall seeing this in early versions maybe years ago.

Notably all major scripts in India like Devanagari, Tamil, Telugu can not be rendered. However, Odia and Sinhala scripts are shown fine. Outside India, Tibetan script cannot be rendered either. However, SEA scripts like Thai, Burmese are fine.

Moreover, if I copy these boxes to the search bar, the actual content can be shown. The tab view can also show the title of the webpage correctly in Bramic scripts. And if I change the locale in the settings, the UI of Fennec app can also properly display the scripts.

To further debug, I went to the about:config and search for fonts. Unlike western or CJK scripts, the value of font.default of Bramic scripts is serif rather than san-serif. The default value of font.name-list of these Bramic scripts are just Noto Sans or Noto Serif. I tried to switch between serif and san-serif but got no luck.

I was wondering how to fix this issue. Thanks!
