I have noticed that mobile browsers (including Firefox Mobile) don't seem to give you the option to clear cookies and other website data on close while preserving website info/cookies of sites you want to keep logged into.

Is this a feature that will eventually be implemented in Firefox? Or is there some kind of limitation in Android/iOS that makes implementing this not possible or tricky?

I have searched in vain to find a way to keep cookies for a certain site on my android. Everything I see says to go to privacy in settings, but that doesn't exist on my phone's browser.

It's really irritating to have the site always send me an email, warning me that I have logged in, as well as insisting on texting me a code. Telling it to recognize my device does nothing if the cookies are deleted. (And, no, I'm not going to set it to always save all cookies when I choose "quit" on the browser.)

Please add this ability, Firefox! My computer browser has had the ability for years and years.

Recently Firefox has started to automatically log me out of the sites that I regularly visit on the iOs version of the browser. I then have to keep logging back in each time I visit the sites. It's also incredibly finicky in the fact that sometimes I will be logged into one site, but not another, as if it's slowly deleting the history/logins or temporarily remembering certain sites before forgetting them again.

I'm on the regular tab for the browser app, not in the private/incognito one, but this continues to happen.

Trying to find an answer online leads me to people talking about a "never remember history" toggle, but never where to find it on iOs, just on the desktop browser. The only equivalent I can find for this is the "clear private data" under the data management tab, but when I try to toggle those off for browsing history, cache and cookies, they are auto switched back to on when I leave the settings as there is no way, or indication, of saving.

I don't know if this is something to do with the most recent update(Firefox 115.0) or what, but I'd like to figure out an answer because the continuous having to log in on my own device that I only use into what are my accounts on sites is starting to get frustrating.

Hello,

I am using Firefox app on my android, I have 2 Gmail accounts that I use frequently in this app. Every 10 days Firefox keeps logging me out of my accounts without any notice. How can I solve this issue?

Thank you Ruba

Hi,

I am using Firefox on Android and every few minutes it will just refuse to load the page. This doesn't happen in Firefox on my laptop so I don't believe it is an Internet speed issue. Often it will just not load and timeout. I usually quit Firefox and clear the cache and that seems to help temporarily but a few minutes later it's doing it again. It's becoming unusable at this point and I have read posts from other people with similar issues. Can we get this fixed in general please? I couldn't find a way to contact Mozilla about this.

Does anyone have any tips or settings I can change to eliminate or reduce this problem?

I'm on Android 13 and Firefox 122.0

Let me know if need any other info. Thanks.

I assumed I posted this question before but I can‘t find it in the forums:

Since some time (2-3 weeks?) Firefox on iOS keeps „logging me oug“ from any website I use.

On google every time I have to consent again, on my news site I have to re-sign in every time to use my subscription …

I am not using the private mode nor have I set to clean everything after closing anywhere (or I don‘t know where to set this).

I am syncing with firefox sync and on my desktop all is just fine. But on iOS it‘s so annoying I am about to drop firefox.

Is there anybody who‘s got an idea what is going on or how I can change this? I uninstalled the App, it‘s automatically kept updated, newest iOS and newest firefox iOS version installed. Nothing helps and cannot find any setting explaining this.

Thanks in advance!

So im useing firefox to block adds and pop ups when reading manga, the website changes the color of a link to a chapter after you have clicked it to show that you have read it. But Firefox “forgets” this information from time to time making it hard for me to track what I’m reading. Since I follow and actively read around 150 different manga, it’s hard for me to remember them all by name, so this tracking feature is really helpful for me. But Firefox removes this information. How do I turn off this “anti tracking” feature without allow adds again. It seems to delete this information on a schedule so I should be able to keep this info without having all the invasive adds
