Hello there, currently it is impossible for Firefox on Android to disable the "Show search terms instead of URLs" setting that hides the URL when searching through the address bar with the default search engine. How may I disable this? I'd like to always be shown the full URL everywhere.

Здравствуйте. Скажите, как удалить определенный сайт из истории.

Открываю Историю - делаю поиск. Отображаются посещённые страницы, но нет никаких меню. Долгое нажатие не работает. А по нажатию переходит на сайт.

Понимаю, что можно удалить всю историю, но мне надо только один сайт удалить.

Hi All

Quick Question - I was stupid and reset my account forgetting I had a recovery key so lost all my data. I realized an old iphone still has most of my bookmarks - how can I export from Firefox iOS app without syncing with my firefox account (which will then wipe out the data)

is this possible? Or could I create a new firefox account, then login into on my phone while keeping my bookmarks? Then export when the new account sync my old phone's data by logging into the new account on my computer? Thanks!!

Hi, I want to disable the "Thought-provoking stories" shortcuts from the home / new tab page on Android.

Following the other forum posts and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hide-pocket-recommendations-firefox there should be a switch for "Thought-provoking stories" under Settings - Homepage - Shortcuts, but I don't see it. What can I do? Thank you for your help.

I have just reactivated a (duplicate) computer which I have only used 2 or3 times in the last year. I have been asked to re-input my Firefox password. Now it wants me to sync Firefox with my (android) phone.

For some reason, Firefox has not been installed on my phone, although other browsers that I have never previously heard of seem to have auto-installed themselves.

I have tried to download the "no fuss" version of Firefox, but it is asking for credit card details. Other browsers allowed me to skip this step, but Firefox will not allow me to proceed, and does not provide a "skip" facillity.

I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to allow my credit card details to be stored on my phone or in a browser. Storing the credit card data would not confer any advantage, because I have multiple credit cards, and I select the card for each transaction according to my location, the currency being billed, and whether the card offers cashback or loyalty points for the type of transaction I am making.

Has anybody else encountered this problem ?

When I've updated Firefox ( 130.0)- from ( Play store); I've noticed that the new version in some way had been missplaced with the desktop version.

However every time I open a new tab- it will always open the Desktop version.

So,please if someone could publish the correct version.
