Firefox for iOS Community Forum

Instructions from Firefox on my Macbook are: go to Menu (on iPad) and tap Sync & Save data. Then scan QR code below.

I tried to do this, but no Sync option appears on my iPad menu. Is it hidden under another option I do have? I tried choosing 'Settings' but it wasn't there. All the other menu options don't seem relevant - 'Find in Page', for example, or Copy, Share, etc. (I chose the menu at top right of screen, as shown on my Firefox page instructions from the Macbook). Can't see any other Menu icons on the iPad Firefox page. Any advice on how to locate 'Sync and Save' on my Firefox app homepage would be gratefully received! Thank you.

I have relied on Lo Wise for years have all of my passwords scored on it however, as of late my account says there is no passwords for my account even though everything is synced from computer and phone and Firefox and is up-to-date please help

Hi,

We use the firefox for ios browser accross our organisation to access a web app. i have notived from the latest version that the downloads process appears to have changed, previously the download would trigger to a new tab whereas now it triggers a download button and then a downloads window where you need to press on the download to open, i can understand the change but it would be good to have the ability to switch it so that downloads can either follow this new process or open in a new tab depending on the users requirements.

I am using Firefox on iPhone (together with DuckDuckGo as my preferred search engine) and I want to configure it in the most secure and reliable way, without running into blocked pages or limited results.

Here’s what I would like step-by-step help with: 1. HTTPS-Only Mode – how to enable this permanently so all sites load securely. 2. Tracking Protection – which level is best for privacy without breaking websites (Standard vs Strict). 3. DuckDuckGo Setup – how to make it my default search engine in Firefox iOS. 4. SafeSearch – how to set it to the best option (Strict, Moderate, or Off) depending on my preference. 5. General Security – any other recommended settings (cookies, history, etc.) to improve private browsing.

My goals are: • Reliable browsing without “HTTP not allowed” errors. • Strong privacy protection. • Smooth experience without unnecessary restrictions.

Could you please guide me step by step on how to set this up correctly?

Thank you in advance for your support!

Can we look at adding the ability to customise the bottum menu bar in firefox for ios.

previous the middle button use to be home but now has changed to search, it would be good to be able to customise at least the middle button depending on the functionilty required.

Hi there.

Safari on iOS has an option called “preload top hit”. It loads the most relevant website or search result in the background while you type so that there is no delay.

This feature is able to be turned off in Safari in iOS, but as far as I am aware, there is no way to do so in Firefox for iOS.

Please add the ability to disable this feature; it is interfering with my experience.

Hello, I use Firefox on my iPhone, but some websites and videos don’t load. Safari shows errors like “Navigation failed because the request was for an HTTP URL with HTTPS-Only enabled

Hi, I'd really appreciate help. I got this pop-up on my Apple phone. (Don't remember what I was searching for that landed me here.)

Firefox is completely disabled - can't click move to another Firefox window or anything. And I don't want to click OK.

The only solution I could come up with was to delete Firefox from my device - but it is still backed up in my icloud.

Do you recommend deleting it from my iCloud back-up & then consider trying to reinstall Firefox?

Anything else you can recommend for me to review on my device to see if malware is deposited elsewhere on my device - not just in Firefox?

Thanks...

I’ve dowloaded firefox. i’ve read the tutorials for browsing setting private browsing but the “masked symbol never appears to click. I tried to download from “App Store” the Private Mode but indicated I had it and back to square one. I like it on my desktop bur can’t on my iPhone 11 Pro Max updated to highest release of IOS
