FF Android won't rename downloaded pictures

More specifically, it will download a few images by renumbering, but will then stop at (2) and save over the last downloaded image rather than continuing to number. I did not have this issue with Chrome, as it would continue to raise the number.

Example: Save Image > pop-up reads "Congrats, unknown.png saved!" > repeat, pop-up reads "unknown.png (1) saved!" > repeat for unknown.png (2) >repeat, but still get unknown.png (2), with the last image now saved over with the new image.

This is especially frustrating, as even after I move images to a new folder, rather than restarting or continuing the numbers it will continue to save over image (2). I work with a site that saves a lot of temporary images so the names are usually bland like this, I would appreciate FF continuing the numbering past (2) or allowing me to rename a file if it plans to overwrite.

You don't offer an option to register a complaint. Consider this just such a complaint. Been using Firefox for a very very long time. It has been my go to browser for now over 500 software builds. Now that stops. Every update you have made for the past year has resulted in something bad. Now the 'it never loads' problem is worse. Now the 'it will not connect to anything' problem is worse. It would not even connect to your own https://connect.mozilla.org/ portal. It took over a minute to get any response. Loading FF for the first time each day is now an ordeal I actually have to get up go away and come back to catch the end of it. I have every major browser, have had for years. FF was my dependable go to. A year ago: I lost confidence in Firefox and now with this update I've had it. Yes: one can now make the panel have a color. Your brandable skins were much better. It seems you have filled your development pool with visual thinkers who cannot comprehend the concept of ease of use.

Your browser is finished.

Hello,

I am wondering if Firefox will help users auto opt out of cookies. By this I mean will Firefox implement a feature that the user can turn on in the settings that automatically deleted cookies that are not needed even if they select that they want to opt in or check the cookies that they are opting into and accidentally opt into ones they don't need to. I believe this could be achieved with machine learning that looks at the cookies that are required by websites and the cookies that are more than what are required. Is Mozilla thinking about adding this future or will it in the future? I believe it could change the industry.

Is there a way to make a bookmark to a folder of bookmarks?

How to do it, if it is possible?

I would like to have an easy access to particular folder of bookmarks both - on my PC and my mobile phone.

Now it is an "either/or" case - easy on one device, but harder on the other.

I'm a long time supporter of firefox, more from a philosophical point of view than a practical one. it's my daily driver on mac, not so much on windows as chrome works better there.

Now my feedback is about iOS. I've tried many times to use firefox but the app is simply not good enough, not fast enough and what I don't really get is why the safari + firefox focus add on is better than the standard firefox app?????? start there, you'll probably get more users. love seb

I found that deleting an entry from a collection is WAY too easy. If you accidentally 'bump' swipe left OR right, or bump the X icon, it is instantly deleted. I don't know how many times I have done that, and often don't even remember what entry I ACCIDENTALLY deleted.

Is there any way to minimize the ways an entry is deleted, or enable some form of delete verification? If not, it needs to be added for a future update.

Since today, tapping and holding a link would use the same preview method as Safari, where it would show you a preview box that could show either a preview of the website or just the URL, switched by tapping the top right of the box. Now it uses its own preview mechanism and there is no option to show only the URL and nothing else. Could you please add such an option on the box? Thank you in advance.

What files must I edit from Firefox's Github repo to add wireless keyboard support for mobile/AOSP? I waited over a decade for code that should take a half hour to write.

Please help me help you. I will do all of the work for free, just tell me what files to start with. CTRL+S, CTRL+U, CTRL+S, CTRL+F, F5, resize shortcuts, nothing works.

Cheap wireless keyboards came out a decade ago, but mobile had no support, so I thought "okay, it will just take a few weeks." But weeks became years. Over a decade passed, still no progress. I will do it for you for free if you let me. If the problem was Firefox, I would just switch to Chrome, but building Chromium for Android is even harder and it also needs patched to get keyboard support.

Guys, this is getting ridiculous. How long does it take to implement such a basic and simple feature into the stable version of FF mobile?!

I'm forced to use FF Nightly with its annoying daily updates, just so I can have the pull to refresh feature available.

People shouldn't be forced to download and use a test build of an app just to use a BASIC feature which should have been finished and available from day one.

Get your sh*t together please and add this to the stable FF mobile release already. PLEASE!

It doesn't need more "testing". You're not launching a moon rocket. It works fine. Add it to the stable release.

Yours, Frustrated and loyal FF user.

Even though Recently Visited is turned off I have lots and lots of recently visited sites showing up on my homepage. I have to manually remove them to clear the homepage. How do I make it stop showing all this clutter?

It happens on both me and my girlfriends phones, so I guess either something is wrong with the setting or it doesn't do what I think it is supposed to do.

See screenshots for example.
