Hello, after updating the mobile Firefox to version 135, I encountered a problem. When I start speeding up video playback on YouTube, a clicking sound regularly appears, as if it’s a micro-stutter in the audio. I uninstalled and reinstalled the browser, and the issue persists even on a clean browser with no extensions. A similar issue also exists in the beta version of Firefox 136 and the nightly version 137, which I installed for testing without making any changes. To check, I installed Firefox 134 again, and the issue does not occur there. My phone, the Tecno Pova 6 Neo, is relatively powerful with an 8-core processor at 2.2 GHz and 8 GB of RAM. Operating system HiOS 14 on Android 14. Could you help me? Thank you.

Getting a weird issue. When I open Firefox Beta, if it is not already running it loses focus on Firefox and pops open the Google Play Store over the top of Firefox on its Firefox Beta page. It's doing this consistently and repeatably. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy A52 5G on the latest update of Android 14.

Hello,

I am using a website with text input fields in a dialog box. When I open the dialog box (show_modal()), I see the entire dialog box (Figure 1). When I type in one of the text fields, it automatically enlarges (Figure 2). How can I prevent this?

Greetings..

Just as the title goes. I've been using Mozilla Firefox on desktop since 2005. The best hands down browser ever. I started using Firefox on android back in 2019.

I still love the android version, but my only problem with it is tabs. They stay open constantly. In the desktop application you close out and all the tabs close. In the android version I swipe up and there still there next time I load in. I don't like this at all. Unless I quit out of Firefox from the submenu, the tabs will stay open indefinitely.

I was hoping Mozilla could add an option to auto close tabs in 6 hours or something like that. Or close out tabs when I swipe up in android.

I have moved about 20 friends and family to Firefox and it's always going to be Firefox from now on. You guys rock!

Hello all,

I had been using firefox as the standard browser for years, but since the DNS-over-HTTPS feature I have had trouble with protecting my family on the web via DNS filtering. Currently the only solution that has worked is to use a different browser (the Spin browser, for whoever is interested). I have Firefox blocked using the Android family link feature (and they can't install new apps without permission). Personally, I would love to move everyone back to Firefox, but I can't find a way to do it safely. Is there a way to effectively disable DNS-over-HTTPS such that it can't be changed (kids are pretty quick at figuring out that they can just go to the settings and figuring out that they can turn the feautre back on). A parental control feature would be ideal, so I can just set the DNS-over-HTTPS to use the family DNS filter in a way they can't turn it off. Does anyone have an helpful solution, or is Firefox dead for family protection?

Respectfully, Andrew

Hello, I appreciate the community and would blike to know if it's possible to receive email or send emails to other addresses within the fire fix account Mozilla account email inbox?

How to disable home button icon on URL bar in Firefox Android like Chrome allows in 2025?

It takes up too much space and URL is hidden and unreasonable. In Chrome, all is optional and customisable.

Is Firefox team updating it to current standards of 2024-25?

I was unable to find this issue online or on the forums, so wanted to see if anyone can help

-using FF for Android (latest official release) and 1password (latest release). 1password is selected as default password manager and I have disabled prompts for FF to manage and autofill passwords

-when visiting a site with a linked password, the 1password field comes up to fill the saved password, but after clicking, FF brings up a warning:

Fill anyway 1password can't verify the app or website should have access to your XXXXXX login.

Cancel Fill once

Clicking fill once will fill the password correctly most of the time, but this behavior didn't occur previously. Previously, the password would be filled without the extra Firefox prompt.

What I've tried and noticed -removing and reinstalling both FF and 1password, and clearing cache for both -changing default password manager to none and then back to 1password -occurs in regular mobile and "desktop" modes -started occurring maybe in the last month or so, and beforehand this wasn't a problem.

-this problem doesn't occur with other browsers -in the autofill section of FF, the "autofill in other apps" slider is set to off, and there is no way I can slide it on, however when I click on it, it shows that the default android password manager is 1password

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I am using Firefox nightly on Android. About two weeks ago I noticed that my toolbar got moved to the bottom after some update, while address bar is still at the top. I tried looking for it in settings but couldn't find anything about toolbar, that's weird since I was able to customize it a few years ago when I installed Firefox for the first time. So I looked it up on the internet and they say that it's in Settings/Customize/Toolbar, but in my browser settings instead of Toolbar there is Address bar settings. Has toolbar's settings been moved somewhere else? It looks like in previous versions it was under Customize section.

I've just about given up using this browser as it's become less and less user friendly. I have spent a couple of hours searching the forums and online to find a way to BLOCK webpages from refreshing/reloading in Firefox for Android. Facebook etc.. I've searched geckoview and there is NO option for blocking this feature. the accessibility.blockautorefresh no longer exists and re-entering it does nothing. I've disabled every option possible and it doesn't do it. Battery consumption etc. There are no current extensions add-ons that work. I assume this was done to make the browser more favorable for site monetization but Firefox wasn't supposed to be geared towards that.

If anyone knows of a way to do this please please let me know. Otherwise I'm -><- away from deleting this app and just using Brave.

I am using Android 14 and Firefox for Android version 134.0.1 (Build #2016067655).

How do I edit PDF files in the Firefox Android app? I chose the Settings category at random when I entered this post because I couldn't find one that was applicable to the question.

I did a lot of searching in the Firefox Android Community and Firefox Android Support areas, as well as Internet searches but I couldn't find anything that was specific to Android.

Thanks!

The upload photo button does nothing... on this page, on Reddit, Facebook too. I've tried clearing cache. I'm on latest android and firefox 124.2.0. I have standard security enabled and permission is set to "Ask" for camera and storage. How do I make this work again?

I’m using Firefox on an Android tablet in PC mode, paired with a keyboard and mouse. To enhance the desktop experience, I’ve switched the tab view from grid to list. However, I can’t enable full-screen mode for the entire app, something I can do on Firefox Desktop. On YouTube, videos automatically switch to full screen when I enter full-screen mode, but this feature seems missing for the browser itself. Maybe the full-screen option isn’t available in the settings.

I am at a loss as to why this started to happen only a few weeks ago after a years of working fine, and why it should happen at all:

given a link to an HTML file where the headers include content-disposition set to attachment and the server (NextCloud30) mistakenly setting content-type to text/plain, what downloads is not the HTML file, but a text rendering of that HTML file, which is, of course, completely useless to the purpose and makes no sense whatsoever that it should happen. Why would anyone download a file and expect to the be interpreted?

But more to the point, how do I stop this behaviour. The above link, on my home cloud so be gentle, will work just fine on Firefox/Linux, but on Firefox/Android it will download as a 7k rendering of the file, renamed with the txt extension. The link itself is just a few holiday classics in the iRealPro format, which is, sadly, and HTML file. Up until two weeks ago, I would post a link in our band group chat, band members would click the link, be asked if they should launch iReal, and then iReal would ask if they would like to import this playlist.

what happens now is I post the NextCloud public link, they click and get a landing page that correctly describes the file as 20k HTML and has that previous link as the Download button. Clicking that gets you 7k of useless text.

I can't say for certain that this is a few 'feature' of a recent Firefox update or something that was changed in a minor update to Nextcloud. I believe it may also happen on Safari, but I haven't confirmed that, all I know is the link does not work on mobile for most users.

Here are the headers that curl reports, although I don't think Nextcloud gives me any option to change these:
