I absolutely love Firefox on PC so thought I’d try it on iOS and while I really want to move from Safari to Firefox so I can sync across devices, I simply can’t move to iOS Firefox when the address bar wastes so much screen space. It’s an eyesore and incredibly distracting for seemingly no reason as there’s a lot of empty space; it could easily be half the size. If you guys could offer different address bar designs that would be amazing because something similar to the small address bar in iOS Safari would be great. It’s very rare I criticise anything to do with Firefox but sorry, it needed addressing (pardon the pun).

I am searching through the Find more Themes page. They either don't open or I get a An unexpected error occurred when trying to open them. I've updated to the current version, and still not working.

Also I have Grammarly for Firefox added, for my word spell checker, but it keeps using the windows checker. How do I fix that.

For some reason Firefox Youtube does not have the "Translate to English" option on comments that are not in English.

Here are some of the things I tried to fix with no avail. 1. Using private window youtube. 2. Turning off Ublock and Enhancer for Youtube plugin. 3. Changing my Display Language and Location in youtube. 4. Using a brand new account with no plugins.

The title of the video seems to be translated in English but I do not have the option to translate comments into English. (I was watching a video by a korean youtuber)

When I use edge browser it seems to work just fine. Any help?

Recent update nuked all my custom containers, and closed every page that was currently open within those containers (pretty devastating bug).

Now, I go to add sites to the new custom containers I made to replace the earlier ones. When I go Manage Containers > pick a custom container > "manage site list ..." and there is no list. Just a blank window.

I have to use Edge in order to edit my Etsy shop..I can still do everything else in Etsy with Firefox. this all changed after the last Firefox upgrade a couple days ago

Google maps displays a map and then, a few seconds later the map goes black. I found an archive thread called "Google Maps suddenly displaying black" where it is suggested to use ctrl+F5 to bypass the cache. That solution works but then, a few seconds later: Boom, the map goes black.

Seems to me that when the page is refreshed by a script in the map that whatever gets downloaded corrupts the map and then when the refresh occurs, the map goes black.

What ever this "corruption is" Firefox fails to display the content correctly. I have killed my cache, disabled extensions, used troubleshooting mode, switched to the "auto" system theme etc. The key combo is the only way to temporarily recover the map. I should also point out that I see differences in the map UI, it looks like Google updated the UI in maps.

The popup appears and when cancelled will reappear after some time then repeat.

This popup appears to have a mind of it's own and should only appear "on click" into a password request box.

This is very annoying and whenever it appears the page being used will not function until the popup is cancelled.

until 4 days ago my firefox hoMEPAGE DISPLAYED THE ICONS I USE DAILY: xfinity - mail and streaming, Amazon, Facebook ... now I cannot get to any of those, WHY????????

So normally firefox uses a reasonable amount of ram but sometimes the amount of ram usage almost doubles, then if I try to change tabs the program freezes. I then have to wait for firefox to stop using the excess of ram and return back to normal levels.

I believe this mainly happens when I have youtube or reddit open but I have no idea how to fix this.

I have already tried reinstalling firefox and deleting/changing extensions. The current extension i have on is adguard adblocker and no others.

Longtime Firefox user, Lenovo desktop, Windows 10 user, have Firefox version 154. Can log into my microsoft M365 account, but whan I click on "Search", my files do not appear. Box appears saying "No Recent Items" in place of my list of files.

Can this be fixed at Firefox??? I'm forced to us Chrome, which I do not want to do. Thank you. Mike Manning Text [redacted phone# and email from community support forum]

The problem is illustrated in the first image attached: Google Maps shows no image, just solid black. This does not occur in browsers other than Firefox.

After restarting my laptop, the same problem persists, but on first going to the Google Maps website the usual image of my neighborhood flashes, then disappears to be replaced by the black.

The second attached image shows four possible causes and fixes offered by Google AI. I tried them all, and nothing made any difference. This image also shows that the thumbnail image appears when my cursor hovers over the tab in which Maps is open.

The only thing out of the ordinary I did before this problem occurred was browsing the Firefox Extensions on advice of Google AI to turn off the intrusive "Genius" AI pop-ups, but I didn't discover anything relevant and I don't think I made any changes.

I'd welcome any suggestions for what to try next,

Upon a Windows forced restart closing Firefox, all of my current session tabs were closed. Upon opening Firefox once again, during which it updated, Recently Closed Windows and Tabs are both dark, preventing me from restoring my previous session.

Because of this issue, I need to try and recover my previous session by scanning through the search history to find the tabs that matter to me.

Open Application Menu(three bars) > History > Manage History

This is the only way to view the complete history in some sort of chronological order. Recent History does not go back far enough and Search History is useless in this case.

A window titled "Library" pops up, which has all my search history.

Focused on "Today", double clicking a website opens it in the current tab, which surprised me. I would think that default behavior would be opening it in a new tab, but alright. I'll right click and specify open in a new tab from now on.

I scroll down, find a website, right click, and open it in a new tab. This action removes the website from it's current position in the chronological order to put it at the very top. If you had scroll down, you are now back at the very top of the list again.

This same behavior does not occur in the "Yesterday" submenu or previous months like "July", however, in the "Last 7 days" and "This Month" submenu, this behavior occurs.

All in all, this means that the chronological order of the history is not preserved and my task of restoring my previous session manually is made more frustrating by having to scroll down where I was from the top after opening each website I want to recover.

Please just "copy" what Google Chrome does, I've never had an issue with their history implementations or my previous sessions being unrecoverable. I'll be figuring out some plugin to use to resolve my previous session issue in the mean time, as I've accepted it as a bad quirk of Firefox.

The history under Firefox View almost fixes the history problems I have, to bad it's hidden under two unrelated submenus, "List All Tabs" > "View All Tabs", so no reasonable person can actually find it. I only found it after writing this up. Put that in the history section please, something like.

Open Application Menu(three bars) > History > Browse History

I have two installations of Firefox on a desktop and a laptop. The first installation is pinned to the Windows toolbar and the 2nd installation has a shortcut pinned to Windows Start.

When I saw that the latest update of Firefox to 154 allowed changing icons, I changed the 2nd installation to a different Firefox icon (mini-fox with black background) so it was easy to see which installation to use when both were open.

The problem is the changed icon for the shortcut is wrong after shutting down the computers. I do not recall having this problem with the 1st installation or on my 2nd laptop where I only have one installation of Firefox.

I suspect this is just a glitch that will likely be fixed in a future update, but it is annoying to have to go through the process of changing the icon every time I startup a computer. If anyone has found a solution for this, I would very much appreciate your help.
