Hi there, When I try to use Firefox Focus by tapping the search bar (see screenshot), my phone keyboard does not appear. No matter how many times I tap. I have tried clearing cache, deleting the app's data, restarting my phone, and uninstalling and reinstalling the app. None of these fixed the issue. This makes the app completely unusable. Any assistance is appreciated. Thank you.

EDIT: The keyboard app I am using is Gboard - it came pre-installed on my phone.

I was looking up a Kinder candy product called "Happy Hippo" yesterday afternoon, and briefly surfed around a website for a weird American supplement company with the same name that also came up in the search results. (Just out of curiosity trying to figure out what the supplement they were selling even was.)

That supplement company subsequently showed up in my inbox this morning offering me a discount code. And to state the obvious: I ABSOLUTELY did not give this sketchy supplement company my email address while on their site.

I would be alarmed to find any company tracking me to my inbox after simply browsing their website for less than two minutes, but for it to happen after using Firefox Focus, I'm also dismayed.

I've already unsubscribed from their mailings and sent a strongly worded email about the invasion of internet user privacy, but half the problem must also lie on Firefox Focus' end. I don't know who can look for bugs or loopholes that would have let this happen, but hopefully reporting it here will start that process.

Ever since the last update, my keyboard isn't appearing in Firefox Focus when I tap the url bar. Normally it would appear to type in a new url, but not anymore. When I tap the bar, it automatically selects the complete url but then I have to tap again in order to show the keyboard. See the attached screenshot; I have tapped the url bar here but no keyboard has appeared.

I am using the regular keyboard on Android, Gboard. I'm on Android 13. Using a Fairphone 4.

Everything is updated to the latest available.

Using Firefox focus 122.1 on iOS 17.2.1; both set to auto update.

When I press the back button, the previous page does not load. Instead there is a weird hybrid, with the url of the previous page but the background color of the page that I just tried to leave, and no text or other information.

Refresh button does not help, but requesting desktop version does load the previous page.

Thanks!

I literally have no idea how to use it. The moment I click to close ad on many websites, the website redirects me. In other browsers, new tab opens which I can just close. However, here I need to return to the previous website, which sometimes even doesn’t work from ad website. How am I supposed to go through closing ads so that I can finally start, e.g. watching a video?

As far as I am concerned there is no way of opening multiple tabs on this browser, which means there most likely isn’t option to automatically open links in a new tab.

Hi, I noticed that I'm getting YouTube suggestions that seem to be based on my Firefox focus browsing. I'm using android. I installed the duck duck go app, it's app tracking protection feature is showing that Firefox focus is sharing cookie data with Google. I'm a bit surprised by this as I thought by default Firefox focus was preventing this kind of thing.

Am I miss understanding? What cookie data does Firefox focus on android share with Google?

Thanks in advance

The website will load and I can click on videos, but I think it tries to load an ad first (and then can’t, so it doesn’t load any video). I think this because I clicked on a 55 minute video and the rest of the page loaded fine, but the player says “Content not available” and shows a runtime of 1:33. I’m assuming this is due to YouTube’s harsher adblock policies, but as extensions don’t work on IOS & I can’t use uBlock, I’m hoping there’s a workaround in Focus.

Youtube worked on Focus two days ago, but not today, with no update in between. Updating the app does not fix the problem.
