Hi there, I recently downgraded Firefox on my Android (5.1.1), as the new versions of the app became to get heavy.

I have logged in with my Account and am now trying to get the bookmarks synced. I have no Desktop right now to pair. The bookmarks and the Account are only available on my iPad, where FF is logged in and has the bookmarks synced.

Any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks for any help and regards, Dan

I am trying to move all the synced tabs brought in from android chrome and Firefox pc into the current active tabs I have on Firefox android.

I've only been able to get 1 at a time to move over, but I have well over a hundred open in putting the two other browsers together..

Everything I've been able to look up about it only deals either the syncing part.


And, is there a way to have am active sync? As in, I open a tab in Firefox on laptop, it opens that tab on my Firefox mobile? And vice versa.

So, I was redirected here after posting a review of the Firefox app on the play store. This is honestly quite embarrassing for me, especially if it's because my problem is actually a simple mistake, but I assume it'll be worth it if I can get some help here. So not very long after I downloaded Firefox, I noticed that after some time (I can't actually pinpoint an exact time, unfortunately.), my private tabs will close, and I'll only have one that is not on any of the websites that I was on. I figured this was because my tab settings, but I checked multiple times, and I have the close tabs setting set to "never." (Close manually.) Is this an issue on my part, or is there potentially something wrong with the application or my phone? I apologize if this is a bit ridiculous, but I was also wondering how Firefox will notify me if I accidentally tap/click on a dangerous/suspicious link or website, do I get a visible warning on my screen? Or do I have to check to see if the connection is secure? (I use Google with Firefox.) If this was something I could've just looked up, then again, I apologize.

I keep getting notifications that I need to purchase antivirus McAvee and that I have several virus that need to be taken care of. My McAvee account I did not renew this year nor do I desire to at anytime in the near future. I want to know why Firefox keeps sending me messages to purchase it. I would appreciate an answer so I know that my options are. Thanks you.

Hi. I'm looking to maximize my privacy on Android Firefox and installed a bunch of addons to help reach that goal. But looking a little closer, it seems there are some are very similar and I wonder if I'm overdoing it by adding too many addons, I have 7 enabled. Is there advice as to the minimum set of addons to enable for the maximim protection? One I found most useful and I'd like to keep is Hello, Goodbye which removes the chatbot popups that seem to be taking over the web.
