Apparently Mozilla does not like Macs either. I entered the information and just got "Bad request (400)"

I've been floundering and cannot find any help.

I've been using Firefox for a good few years now, on my computer as well as my mobiles. After the latest update for my IOS (144.1 or 62735) and I've always loved the inactive tab system. I've noticed that some users have not shared my appreciation for it but as it has now been seemingly removed, (and I am unable to find anywhere in settings to toggle it back on) my tabs are now too many to efficiently traverse. Finding a specific tab is almost impossible.

Some of you may say, "Hey Truck, that's a you problem," and you'd be completely right! However since I do keep a lot of tabs on my mobile open and I don't close them down (because I usually go back and use them after the alloted 14 days) this is now an issue for me.

Wall of text aside, is there any chance that I may have overlooked in settings where to turn it on, and if not, could I please ask for that feature? Specifically Firefox IOS.

Many thanks, Truckmaster

Hi I cannot find any way to scan an URL QR code directly from Firefox. I expected that a QR code icon would appear when i tap the address bar, but I can't find such icon...

Of course, I checked the settings: camera is enabled in Firefox settings and QR code scanning is enabled in system settings.

Is there any way to scan QR codes directly from Firefox settings?

I use the latest version of both Firefox (146.1 (65627)) and iOS (iOS 26.3 (23D5089e)) iOS is a beta version... Could this be the reason why...

Many thanks in advance for any help on advice.

As a retired American Airlines employee, I use fly.aa.com to book flights. I have been having a cell phone problem for the last year where it says "This connection is untrusted'. Go Back. Says owner of fly.aa.com configured website improperly. Firefox has not connected to this file. If I go there anyway, won't take my passworld. I use this app just fine on my pc at home, but need it to travel. A tech friend helped me go around once, but have not used it lately and it's back to the same screen as noted above. AA says its firefox problem.
