Firefox for iOS Community Forum

Firefox has become basically unusable since the iOS 17.1.2 update. Everything is extremely slow — opening a tab, selecting the address bar, waiting for keyboard to load, typing, loading results etc. Only after the wait at each step to load a web page does it become navigable as long as I stay there and don’t leave to return later. I’m on latest version in app store. Been a Firefox user since my first smartphone and beyond that on a PC. I prefer Firefox, but I downloaded the DuckDuckGo browser just to have something responsive for basic web searches. Please help.

This issue is NOT a crash but no topic matched it. I repeatedly have trouble with pages on rogerebert.com/reviews. For example, this one: https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/leave-the-world-behind-movie-review-2023

The page loads fine but while I am reading it, every 30-60 secs it reloads and takes me back to the top of the page. I have been having this problem for a couple of weeks now and it has persisted thru a couple of updates.

I am running IOS 17.2 on an iPhone13 mini.

my colors do not display correctly on all websites on my iphone please help i want to keep using browser i already tried taking off enhanced privacy and cleared my cache but some sites are still missing colors

Since updating Firefox to 123.0 several features are no longer working on my Apple iPhone using iOS 16.7.7 The recent update to 124.0 has NOT corrected the issue...

The most troublesome is; getting links in email to open in the browser, Firefox is my default browser.

Links continue to function if I use Safari, DuckDuckGo or Edge... I have selected Safari, as my default browser in the interim and I don't like it, so HELP !!!

Firefox for iOS no longer will open when I click from my mail or the QR scanner. This is a recent development. To be precise, Firefox opens, but nothing else happens! Any suggestions? Thanks.

All of a sudden with the past week or so I've been having problems writing emails because as I type my words get cutoff and I have to wait for a second or two to start entering letters again. It happens all of a sudden and even occurred when I was entering data to join the forum just now. I looked at the tasks that were running to see if anything there was impacting the performance of the system and found tasks labeled "FirefoxCP Insulated Web Content" running and eating up CPU cycles, up to 48% while in priority position. Sometimes I had up to 6 of these tasks going at one time. What is going on and how can I correct this situation because it's impacting my ability to use any functions that require data entry.

When I press the infinity symbol to Open Tabs most of the tab images are blank. Up until recently when I used Open Tabs all the tabs would have images of the page. Now only a small percentage show images. Most just show an icon. What's up?

Running IOS 17.2 on an iPhone13 mini

When I am opening a link in outlook to something on the web it will not open it in Firefox but if I change my browser to safari it will open it up . This used to work but now it doesn’t. Why?

Firefox for iPad constantly drops the page I am typing on..either during my search or once I get to the page I want and begin to type. I love Firefox but this is driving me crazy. Can you explain this problem what can be done? Thank you. Lynn Robinson *Email hidden for privacy*

I’ll use the example of movie times. In the IMDB app you can pick movie times, that link sends you to my web browser (Firefox) which opens to the homepage, but that’s it. It doesn’t do anything else, it doesn’t even attempt to open a page. It’s been happening for a while. What am I doing wrong g?

Any else seeing this lately?

1. **Navigation Issues**: Firefox fails to correctly navigate forwards or backwards through browser history. It often does not load the intended previous page, skips pages, or refuses to load a page entirely, requiring the user to close all tabs and manually re-enter the URL.

2. **Loading Issues with External Links**: When opening links from external applications (e.g., email clients), Firefox frequently fails to load the expected webpage. Sometimes, it does not load any page, or it loads to a blank or the home page despite the URL being visible and highlighted in the address bar.

As the title says, after the last update I’m getting a blank screen when I delete the current tab, normally I would get the Home Page with all my favourites and things

In the dark theme mode, there seems to be an issue with the animation when long-pressing the Tab. However, in the light theme mode, the animation works fine

video_link I think a video would make it more intuitive : )

device: 13 mini with iOS 15.7 (Translation by ChatGPT)

Server hasn't been able to read any of my articles (even ones <1min) for a few weeks. I'm happy to delete old articles off the server to give it more space but the app doesn't give me that possibility. I have loved using this app in the past and hope these are just temporary glitches! I have attached a screenshot of the red alert I get when trying to listen to articles. (Note: the full screenshot tells the time but didn't include the red alert. The second screenshot is from the same screenshot but isolated the alert.)

Thank you for your help.

[With ~Ff 123?8 and now 124 installed on iOS 17.3 platform updated a couple weeks ago from iOS 15.+ on my iPhone XR]

  For couple weeks , following any external link/reference, such as all 'unsubscribe' links from Apple Mail messages, Firefox opens but homepage rather than to the link/url argument (and url field shows blank, not display the extrrnal link's url address in url input box.
  Support history shows an identical problem in Ff ~117 reported (Aug '23, I think)   (if the condition of Firefox not currently running is same, which I haven't yet been able to determine) and apparently resolved then ( 2 replies, but thread is not visible because FF Support has it recorded as "Archived").
