Firefox Android 113 switches off Desktop Notifications for web version of YouTube

Hello, I believe that my Firefox android browser updated to version 113 on May 19, 2023. Up until that point, I had no issues with getting notifications sent to my device from the web version of YouTube accessed through Firefox. I could refresh the page and leave the Firefox app and still receive notifications. Ever since the update, every time the YouTube page is reloaded (which also happens when you leave the app) the Desktop Notifications toggle in the YouTube desktop mode settings switches to off. I can switch this toggle back on, the page is refreshed, and this toggle (and only this toggle) automatically switches to off. This happens every time and I am no longer receiving notificationsto my device. The YouTube app for Android is not involved in this, as I use Firefox to access the web version YouTube as an alternative. Please provide information that can help resolve this issue and/or please make a note of this issue so it can be resolved in the future. Thank you so much.

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!

Firefox keeps auto logging me out of sites when I close the app!

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.

How to always allow cookies on android?

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.

Cookies don't clear bug while tab still open

The Delete Browsing Data option, manually or by the quit button, doesn't clear cookies if the tab is still open.

Simple example: go to youtube.com, search for anything, e.g. "asmr". In the same tab, go to a new site, e g. google.com. Then go to settings and Delete Browsing Data, with all selected but downloads. Now, all tabs are closed, so in a new tab go to youtube.com, and click in the search and the previous search, e.g. "asmr", shows up in a droplist.

This droplist behavior shouldn't occur when all data is cleared. This behavior doesn't occur if the tab is closed before Delete Browsing History is selected.

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?

Firefox Android 122.0.1


Hello,

I am looking for a way to allow the storage of cookies and local storage data for certain websites. Like it is possible with Firefox for Linux with Cookies and Website Data -> Manage Exceptions.

Is this also possible with firefox for Android ?

with best regards Vic

Lately, I've noticed whenever I visit https://outlook.office.com using the iOS version of Firefox, it keeps getting me to log back in. This is despite telling it to remember me.

The current workaround is to refresh the page and I'll be logged in. Anyone else getting this or know of a fix?
