For the last 72 hours I have been blocked from my accounts: codes change, passwords too (by either Mozilla, or Google or Microsoft. At 70 years old, two Covids-19 and living alone with a DPOC, this Christmas is being hell for me due to "technology"! bell

'It is a mix of topics, not one browser. Can´t access any of my emails & accounts (Google, Mozilla Firefox, Windows.) Could the tree of you please come to an agreement and automatically take care of my passwords/2-step verification/etc? Or send me another kind of authorization?I am a Brazilian journalist and professor in Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Still lucid enough to work but memorizing became more difficult after 2 covid-19 for million of people. I am 70, live alone and am not complaining - but wished IT, IA and others would at least help me. On the contrary, I am uncapable of writing/talking with family and doctors due to what seems to be a tech conflict between the above mentioned providers. Tks a lot for any help you may provide: please send me one, not three passwords or codes or 2-factor. It would be my Christmas present! Tks a lot!

Hello Firefox Focus seems to have display issues when “Zoomed” view is selected in the ‘Display Zoom’ setting. Settings->Display & Brightness->Display Zoom The favourite icon spacing is misaligned (especially if you have 4 favourites), as well as the text items overlap on the main app screen. Some web sites also run off screen right. Thank you.

Hi, Team! I've been experiencing FFF crashes for a while. It happens occasionally when I'm watching YouTube videos in FFF while using AppSwitcher (or checking Notification Center). Iphone X, FFF 108.0.

I've just turned on both SendUsageData and Studies switchers to help you to dig in (if that helps).

Cheers,

Is this a known issue?

Disabling JavaScript in Firefox Focus

Is there any means to add an option to disable JavaScript in Firefox Focus? This browser has been my go-to / default browser for years on iOS, but lately it has become more difficult to use because websites wait several seconds or wait until I’ve scrolled halfway through a page before blasting a huge window up on the screen asking/demanding/requesting I sign in or agree to their (not so private) privacy policy. Even if I get by that, it seems to refresh the page and I lose where I was.

I’ve found Safari obviates this issue when I leave JavaScript off. I don’t really want to shift entirely to safari, but websites have made using Firefox Focus a bit less useful because of those pop-up windows.

I primarily use Tor Browser or Firefox with uBlock Origin (JavaScript disabled) on my regular computers and happily have few issues using the internet.

The URL autocomplete feature does not work under the following conditions:

>an existing URL is selected >one or more characters are typed very quickly

It still works when the URL/search bar is empty/cleared or when one waits long enough until entering text, but it is very obstructive for users who value the speed of this application. The issue has existed for several updates and has not been fixed.

Thank you for your consideration.

Just downloaded Firefox focus for iOS and I will say that it is the best browser I have used in terms of most things, except for the fact it seems that you can only go back one page at a time. I am an old-habits-die-hard chrome user and I genuinely want to switch to this browser, but without the ability to go back more than one page at a time it will be tough. Expected behavior: Holding down on the back button opens a list of recently visited pages for the current tab in sorted by order visited.

In choosing a search engine, I found out from the directions on Firefox focus how to add them. But when they gave the string for Wikipedia, it did not work. I was wondering if any knew the accurate one and also is there a webpage that gives search strings for many apps or web pages? When I did a search under “Wikipedia Search Engine String”, I didn’t see a web page that offered it and I couldn’t find it on the Wikipedia site. If someone doesn’t mind, can you give me the directions on how to find them? I would be very grateful.

Hello,

I am having the hardest time trying to add a bookmark in firefox focus for ios. I have done it in the past and somehow that option can no longer be found and the three dots are missing from the top of the window. How could something so essential and common be so difficult to find? Am I just missing something so obvious??? Bottom context menu does not have it, holding down menu on page does not work, three dots are missing. There are no other menus which would provide actions. I am really struggling with how difficult it is.

Thank you.
