Firefox for iOS Community Forum

When I search on Firefox on my iPhone 14, the search results are in a tiny font. This just started happening this summer. Everything, all the search results are tiny. So, I no longer use Firefox. How can I change it back to the way it used to be?

Firefox iOS updated this morning to 143.1 In private browsing it’s in dark mode automatically and won’t change even if changing to light in the settings.

Any help? Steve

I’ve been having issues with Firefox on iOS. As you can see on the screenshots, the URL bar section expands on blocks half off my screen. When I scroll down the URL bar is hidden and the issue disappears but when I scroll up the same issue returns. It doesn’t seem to be specific to a certain website and is really disruptive.

I’m using an iPhone SE, iOS version 26.0.1, Firefox is updated.

Hello. I get the following error message when I try and do a search on Google. Seems to be something new. Also happening on my ipad. I don’t recall changing any settings. Any help appreciated.

Google 403. That’s an error.

Your client does not have permission to get URL /search?client=firefox-b-m&q=screwfix from this server. That’s all we know.

Last night I updated my iPhone 11 Pro to iOS 26.1

Since the upgrade I'm unable to have Firefox play audio for a music stream I listen to when the phone goes to sleep/lock or if I use the app switcher to switch to another app, like Maps.

This wasn't happening yesterday when I was using my phone and listening to the same audio stream in my car with Maps open for navigation.

I don’t remember from when, but after some point of an update of Firefox for iOS, whenever I type something in Korean into address bar for quick search, it automatically changes my inputs to English and extra character appends at the front. This will cause great inconvenience for Korean users. I hope Mozilla team fix this problem soon.

I have been using Firefox since I first started using computers, so for over fifteen years. Initially, I only used it on my PC, but for the past few years I have also been using it on my iPhone and iPad. Until now, I have been a very satisfied user, but for some time now I have been extremely dissatisfied with Mozilla and Firefox. I have been using Startpage as my search engine for many years and Firefox is set up that way on all my devices. But on Apple devices, every time I open the browser, Google is now set as the search engine again and I have to correct the setting every time. I find this patronising, inconsiderate and extremely rude. If this cannot be changed very quickly, Firefox will no longer be my default browser on any device. I would be very sorry to see that happen, but it really is not acceptable. Are you so short of money that you have to rip off your long-standing users? I would be very grateful for a reasonable and helpful response.

Default search is reset to Google every time I close and reopen Firefox. How do I make Firefox remember my choices? I am setting Brave to be the default search.

Thanks!

Recently updated firefox on my iPhone and the tab page has changed. I don't like the new layout, is there any way of changing back. Finding it confusing that the page title is now at the bottom of the thumbnail and not enclosed with it.

For the last two days, I have not been able to clear caches. Because the privacy and security icon is missing. There’s a privacy notice there. When I click it, there’s no area for me to clear cachets.

Please advise

Trying to log into Nord VPN with my iphone but keep getting error that cookies are enabled. Turned off every tracking protection etc I could think of and still have this problem on my iphone.

Is there a specific place as nothing in the help for cookie managment.

I am unable to load Newsmax - I get the message: "Secure Connection Failed

The connection to www.newsmax.com was interrupted while the page was loading.

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

It loads fine in Safari - maybe I should use that as my default browser.
