I had issues with my phone and had to do a full factory reset. I have since logged back into firefox but I want go be able to recover all of the tabs I had open and all of the collections I had saved. Is that possible?

Subject Crew Travel access issue Hello, I am still unable to access Crew Travel (RCT). The page shows “The page isn’t redirecting properly” even after clearing cache, enabling cookies, and trying different browsers and networks. Could you please check if there is an issue with my account or the system? Thank you

Until recently, in Firefox Nightly for Android, when visiting a web page in a Private Browsing tab the three-dot menu included an option to "Open in regular tab". In the past few versions, this option has been removed.

This option is especially handy for those of us who have the "Open links in a private tab" option enabled, which essentially makes Private Browsing the default. For example, if it is a page that normally requires a login, you can use "Open in regular tab" to easily open it in a regular session where you are automatically logged in. If your browser history is synced, "Open in regular tab" makes a page easily available on all devices (e. g. via Suggest) without having to bookmark it or actually send it to a different device.

This post on Bugzilla says "we will continue to keep this a Nightly-only feature" and the menu entry will be renamed to "Move to non-private tab". However, the menu entry does not appear on the redesigned menu.

1. Which exact version removed the option? Is there documentation about this in Bugzilla? 2. Is there a way to re-enable it, e. g. in about:config? 3. If not, are there any plans to bring it back?

Thanks.

Hi

Firefox has stopped syncing from my android phone. In the 'connected services' section of the account page it shows both my PC and phone connected. On the desktop it shows synchronised frequently updating (e.g. 24 seconds ago) but on phone it shows 'never'. It previously showed last sync as 14 days ago but I relogged (from both devices) to try to fix it. It just so happens that 14 days ago I added a new email address to login with my mozilla account (previous email became secondary), but I have checked and both devices are logged in with updated credentials.

Any ideas other than re-install?

On android phones, you can disable the gesture hint (white bar at bottom of screen). Other apps I have tried while having it disabled have no issue. With Firefox however... when gesture hint is off and i swipe up from the bar, my finger is technically swiping at the address bar, which (aside of sending me to home - because that's what the up gesture does on the bottom) opens the tab switcher.

Recently, my Samsung A23 5G started freezing when closing tabs. I only started having this issue since Firefox updated to a new version with a new UI. I am currently on 147.0.3 on both devices. I load one tab, close it, load another, and then it usually freezes on the next close. Clearing the cache often allows me to go a couple more tabs without freezing, while simply closing Firefox still usually has the limit of two tabs before freezing. I usually just press "close app" when the "Firefox isn't responding" system box comes up. I've restarted my Samsung phone but the issue persists. My new Moto G Stylus 2025 doesn't freeze, but Firefox still feels noticably slower, especially when closing tabs.

I've uploaded three screenshots. The first one shows how it freezes while I close a tab, while the second shows how Android's "not responding" message comes up. The third one shows the current version on both of my phones.

Why is there no FIFA world cup widget in my Firefox for Android, version 152.0.1? I have looked through all the settings, but there is nothing. When I use the search feature in settings, there is a search result when searching for "world cup" which redirects me to the "Homepage settings", but there is nothing.

I asked a question, received an email confirmation. I've spent 10 minutes trying to find said question in my profile. NOTHING! ANYWHERE! If your instructions are useless how are your claims of competence as a browser any different? Why is use, or even the simple attempt to use your well touted product so bloody frustrating?

why does Firefox have a Google sign in the search bar on my mobile device after installing it? Does not make sense since Firefox on my laptop opens in Firefox browser.

Hello,

I think it would be useful if bookmarks are always saved in a user-defined default folder rather than saving them in the folder last used. I don't always remember what folder I've used last so the bookmarks end up somewhere I cannot find them. There might be cases I would find this useful, but I think providing an option to search the list of bookmark folders, to select multiple bookmarks and move them to a different folder might be more useful to get the same result.

Kind regards

I have firefox for android installed and have set up "delete browsing data on quit". I made sure all boxes are ticked and when I press quit it does delete my browsing data, however the recently closed tabs section still keeps all its info retained, in effect my browsing history does not get deleted until I do it manually and then quit firefox. I deleted the app cache and when that did not work, I did a fresh reinstall of the firefox app and the issue still persists.
