Firefox for iOS Community Forum

Dear Firefox Team,

I am writing to propose an enhancement for your iOS and Android, as well as desktop applications, that would greatly benefit users with visual impairments. It would also benefit anyone who is aware that they are in need of supplementary assistance in the absorption of information and knowledge, such as myself (for context; I am an adult with autism and ADHD). Specifically, I suggest adding an accessibility feature that provides verbal dictation of the text on the phone. This addition would significantly improve the experience for users with limited or no sight or potentially even other types of disabilities.

As a friendly neighborhood computer consultant, I recommend Firefox as the default browser to my friends and family because of its strong commitment to privacy. Additionally, a partnership with DuckDuckGo could further underscore your dedication to user privacy.

I appreciate your consideration of these suggestions and look forward to seeing your continued innovation and reaction to my notes. Enhancing accessibility features not only supports inclusivity but could also attract new users and potentially open up advertising opportunities. I am eager to share more ideas in the future and would be delighted to contribute to your mission in any way possible.

Best regards,

Seth Noreman [edited phone# from public community support forum]

P.S. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me. I am also available to help create promotional materials or tutorial videos on how to use these accessibility features, leveraging my background in digital art and my unique perspective as an adult with autism.

Thank you for your time.

Typing about:config in the address bar does not bring up a list of configuration files. All it does is produce a google search list of YouTube and Mozilla help sites. How can I access Firefox configuration files so I can stop websites from refreshing?

Hello. When trying to browse websites using cellular data only, some kind of security block prevents the websites from loading. It says the it’s pretending to be the website and possibly could steal my information. When using WiFi, the same websites load without any issues and no security blocks. The warning message also says something about only the administrator can make changes or something along those lines. What should I do to get this bullshit off my phone? Please help! I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

On the menu I have the message "Account dis connected" with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle. I can't find any information about what the message means sand how (or if) I can account/reconnect my account. Help, please.

Directions for printing tell us to click on the menu button and then click "Print". But there is no such item on the menu.

So evidently I am not meant to print a web page? Does anyone know what to do to get to a link for printing web pages? Thanks.

Hi,

I do not have a toolbar setting that I can find on my Firefox installation on my iPad. I want to move the toolbar from top to bottom, but I can’t do it. I’ve tried reinstalling and selecting “bottom” for the toolbar location in the tour, even after clearing all data, and it doesn’t move. Should be so easy!

Firefox on iOS has an issue- whenever scrolling, when browsers interface appears, things move around on the website. It doesn’t happen on Mac. I have a recording of the issue, not sure where to put it though.
