What I want is: 1. History should either not be saved, or alternatively auto-deleted after a certain time (e.g. only keep history of the past hour), or as a last resort get deleted when closing the browser. 2. I want to keep the ability to restore recently closed tabs. I realize this is a bit in conflict to not having a history, but just remembering the last few closed tabs would be enough, or all tabs closed in the last few minutes. 3. When I restart the browser (after pressing "Quit"), I want it to restore my previously open tabs 4. When I restart the browser (after pressing "Quit"), I want to keep cookies and logins (i.e. not get logged out everywhere, and have the cookie dialogues after restarting the browser). 5. Not super important, but ideally I want to keep my saved favicons/website logos in the bookmarks and on the new tab page after a restart.
So basically I just want to way for the history to be empty or automatically pruned, without sanitizing any other data on exit or browsing in a kind of permanent private mode.
I haven't yet found the correct configuration to do this. If there is an extension or about:config option for doing this, please also let me know (I'm happy to switch to Firefox Beta or Fennec F-Droid which have full extension support and expose about:config functionality.)
Thank you in advance!

I have used Firefox on many systems - MacOS, Linux, Winblows and mainly Android Cellphone.
"about:config" on a Cellphone has never worked, never worked consistently, or mainly been confused with Desktop Firefox :P
Hello?!? The future is mobile not stationary desktops :P But I digress. Please dont misunderstand me - I love FF - but when I want "about:config" on A Cellphone - I WANT IT to actually work on a freaking cellphone :P
Is the software config too much for International Mozilla to understand? Or has Mozilla had way to much input from everyone on the planet thus watering down an otherwise great browser?
Kind of rhetorical - I know it will never be fixed in favor of locking in a dieing desktop setup :P

I have been trying to get the Add-on "sponsorblock" on Firefox for Android. However when I check the Add-on page for it, it tells me that I need a more updated version of Firefox. I have checked multiple times, and confirmed that I am already on the newest version and there are no updates for me to get. Is this add-on no longer supported on the Android version of this browser, or is there some other issue?
Woke up this morning and my stupid phone had updated to the new, awful, Firefox on Android: 119.0 (Build #2015980915), 367d60e851+ GV: 119.0-20231019122658 AS: 119.0 … (read more)

To my horror I was seeing images on webpages, totally ruining my browsing experience. The main reason I use firefox on Android is because it allows me to turn off media. I don't want to see any of that, almost always entirely irrelevant, distraction. Now I'm going to have to use Samsung internet and continually click reader mode. This is NOT about ad blocking, it is not about saving data. It is about drastically improving the browsing experience. Please reinstate blocking of all images and videos.
Is there an option, configuration setting, or add-on that would enable a "Select All Tabs" option for tabs in Firefox for Android?

Good morning everyone. I find managing bookmarks on Firefox for Android extremely difficult. To open a bookmark I have to click on bookmarks, desktop bookmarks, bookmarks bar, favorites bar and choose the bookmark. A very long journey. Furthermore, once I have opened a bookmark and subsequently want to open another one I have to repeat the same very long procedure, Firefox does not resume from the folder where I opened the last bookmark, as happens in other browsers. I don't know if I explained myself. Can it be remedied somehow?
How do I enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) in Android Firefox? Can't get to about:config to do it.
I want to enquire if the wallpapers from firefox would be restored in future updates of the browser.
With regards
I want my ebay pages to stay on 'desktop site' but it keeps reverting to the default android, now almost with every click. It's become unusable.

Please disable the Address Bar when we using PWA like Chrome does. I think when we start a PWA means I want to use a similar app but not another webpage.

I need to change the download folder from my phone intern memory to my SD card, but I don't see the option to do it, I've seen forum post of people saying It can be done by entering about:config in the browser, but that doesn't work.

When Adding a Shortcut to the Android Home Screen, it allows you with a pop-up option to Rename the Shortcut before placing it on your Home Screen.
However, when attempting to Install a Progressive Web App (from compatible Web App web sites), and clicking Install, it does NOT give you the opportunity to Rename the Shortcut.
In contrast, Chrome/Android allows the name change in both cases (non-Web App and Web App sites).
Is this feature in the works on FireFox Android?
Is there a work-around to Rename Shortcuts either before or after placing them on the Home Screen ?
Is it possible to quickly jump to the top/bottom of page, to avoid the long scrolling anytime?

On desktop we can click the padlock to view the actual SSL certificate but on Mobile this does not work.
Viewing the SSL certificate is a very important and useful ability and should be supported the same way as viewing a web page's HTML source or viewing an email message's headers.
