Hello!

It would be nice to go back to the old style of the management of the Shortcuts in the browsers homepage. The new style was a regression. Let the browser user decide what style he likes.

And, - allow moving (sorting) the Shortcut links within the homepage (per drag and drop), - allow more than two Shortcut separate pages within the homepage or more than 16 Shortcuts, - remove the pin symbol from the Shortcut image, it looks terrible and it is superfluous. (I use ONLY my own shortcuts, nothing else, so the pin symbol is not needed.)

Thank you Mario

I am trying to download videos from a site that I newly subscribed to. The videos do stream perfectly. The files do not download as video files and will not open at all. When I click on the download link, there is no recognition of a download happening and when I check my files later I have an "internet" file showing with a title but without a video file extension and nothing will open. The file extension is ".html". I am following the step by step instructions from the site involved. Other sites videos are downloading as expected.

Does firefox need to be my default browser? Any suggestions how to remedy this without losing what is working? Are there plug-ins that can address this issue?

Thanks.

I'm unhappy with the new version of the app, 143.0, which my app was just updated to. Specifically, the appearance of the tab homepage. The empty space previously occupied by the search bar at the top of the screen, and the lack of features such as recently opened tabs, or the "Jump Back In" box, both of which have been removed in favour of irrelevant stories. The ability to turn back on features like that would be greatly appreciated.

In addition, updating seems to have completely cleared out my app's history, now only showing me my synced history from other devices.

Previously, in the shortcut screen, you could swipe left right to display the other eight shortcuts. This no longer works. I have to tap showall to display all the shortcuts. Additionally the showall setting should be remembered, you shouldn't have to do two taps to get to the second list.

Dear Firefox Support,

I am a long-time Firefox user and greatly appreciate the privacy-focused and user-friendly experience your browser offers. However, I would like to request an enhancement to the Android version of Firefox.

Currently, the Firefox Start Page on Android only displays two rows of shortcut icons under "Top Sites" (Pinned Shortcuts). This limitation restricts quick access to frequently used websites, especially for users who rely on visual organization.

I would kindly request the option to customize the number of visible shortcut rows — for example, allowing up to 5 or more rows — directly from the app’s settings. This would greatly improve usability and personalization without affecting the minimalist design of the Start Page.

Thank you for your work and consideration. I hope this suggestion can be taken into account for a future update.

Best regards, Florin

Please let me know how to get my favorite sites back on my home screen. I use them a lot as they are real time savers. When I signed on this morning, it asked if I wanted Firefox to access my computer. I've always said yes and the updates have never caused a problem - until today.

I would appreciate an email ([edited email from community support forum]) letting me know how to get this to work.
