Sometimes I have a need to copy or edit part of very long URL that includes many passed parameters and tokens in address bar of FireFox for Android. Having to swipe twenty times to get to required position in string is not very convenient comparing to ease of such procedure on PC where you have mouse and Home/End keys.

I'd like to request for a new feature of on/off toggle for address bar in FF for Android that could switch it into multiline edit mode where all URL would be visible and easily navigated and edited. I just don't know where to submit it.

Where can I find the extension for Grammarly. I hate it; can't go to extensions just add-ons. Please don't offer it as part of Firefox. It doesn't like you to use a semicolon; wants you to use a full sentence instead of Correctly using a semicolon. Stupid addition!

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.

Hi. I was searching FireFox Focus and I couldn't save an interesting URL I found, since I closed the browser by mistake.

Is there any way to recover it? I know the point is that FireFox deletes you data, but I'm trying my best. Thank you very much.

This is not about the lack of ability to print a webpage from the browser, but that when scheduling an appointment and you have a print button on the page once you're set, the button shows you've touched it, but nothing is generated. I had both DMV appointment made as well as another site where there was something you could print a copy of and both sites had the same issue. I can tell it was registering that I had touched the button, but NOTHING happened. I finally broke down and opened Chrome and the button generated the option for me to print.

I have used Firefox on Android for years and at some point, it updated and all of a sudden none of my addons were compatible.

A couple of those were incredibly useful. For instance, I do not use the Facebook app, I only access it through the web. Until the change, I had a brilliant Facebook ad blocker that worked wonders. Now, that blocker will not work.

There is no alternative available (except to revert to using Chrome who did not ruin compatibility).

What have others done?

Installing the app is not an option. Hard stop.

Is it possible for me to revert to the last prior version that actually worked with addons?

When the browser tries to Autofill a URL it often goes to some popular website I never use or care about. This is a deal breaker and will have to switch to a new browser if this isn't fixed and I can't find anything in my settings to correct it. How do I fix this?

The very old architectural version of FFA had a plugin that enabled viewing image ToolTips by long-pressing an image. That plugin was not supported in the newer FFA.

Since then, I have to turn on my PC to use FFW to see them with the mouse.

IMHO, FFA is missing very basic functionality that I've patiently waited years to return to the newest FFA, but to no sucess.

Thank you.

I'll understand if this is a longshot. However, I need to ask.

I have tried the new user interface that Mozilla put out about two years ago. I tried it when it first updated and I tried it again last year to be sure. And I'm sorry, but I hate it. I hate it so much. It's unwieldy, I don't like the way the tabs are presented, I don't like how New Tab works and most of all I hate that my bookmarks aren't the first thing I see when I open a new tab. I've been using I think Firefox 69 or 79 ever since.

But using an out of date browser obviously has issues. Pictures aren't loading, some webpages aren't loading, including ones I need for school, and recently my adblock stopped being able to block everything.

Which brings me to my question. Is there some way I can update Firefox to the new browser without using the new UI? An add-on, a setting I can change? If it's complicated, I can do it with a decent step by step. Even if you can help me find the right phrase to google to get a how to would be great.

Thank you in advance, and I hope you have a lovely day

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 have no idea if it's even possible, but on Desktop I can sort my history in the order I've visited them, from the latest being on top to the ones visited a long time ago towards the bottom (and this should really be the default method for sorting history).

How can I achieve this on Firefox Nightly for Android?
