Firefox for iOS Support Forum

In Switzerland we have a payment App called Twint which is widely used for transferring money and payments. In most case you scan a QR code or put in a name and their mobile phone. However, when it comes to parking it accepts the QR code and then informs the user that Firefox can not deal with the financial transfer. In a telephone call with the Twint organisation this morning it was suggested that I change to Google Chrome!

What is the situation? Is somebody trying to work on a solution or did I really have to change to "Chrome" Andrew R. Nicoll ....

My firefox app disappeared from my iPhone 6S. It still shows as being installed in settings. The only way I can access it is to go into App Store and open it. It will still not show up on the phone

My dark mode keeps switching back to light. And I’m not talking about pages that are white regardless. I’m referring to pages like my home page. I keep it set on dark mode all the time. And I keep have to switch from dark to light over and over again to fix it to fix other pages that are normally dark.

I keep getting the error NS_ERROR_NET_INADEQUATE_SECURITY for www.theautismhelpernetwork.com

This is a website that works on every other browser and I had no problem using last year using firefox. At some point one of the updates (likely in 2022) has produced this error.

How can I fix this to access the website?

EVERY time I open the app to search something or navigate to a website, without fail, it crashes after about 3 seconds. When I reopen it, it works completely fine, but if I switch to a different app and return, the process repeats.

Every time I try to add a search engine (the one I’m trying now is “wiki.pokemoncentral.it”) Firefox on my 6th generation iPad with iPadOS 15.6 (latest version) crashes, and it does that even with my iPhone Xr. I don’t know what to do, I think it’s a bug or something like that. Please Mozilla, if there isn’t any solution I can do, fix it.

I’m unable to add any additional search engines. App crashes every time. I’ve also uninstalled the app and reinstalled to see if that changed anything…. It did not. Any help would be appreciated

For a while I kept getting that Firefox crashed after I opened the browser. I deleted it and uploaded the latest version added Adblock plus but I can’t see Adblock plus in my extensions for Firefox iOS.

Hey, Since I've updated my ipad to the newest os (15.7) my Firefox got really slow and buggy. Often it simply crashes once it's loading a page. I am not be able to use my enpass password manager anymore too... It simply won't show the keyboard once I want to log into anything. A look in the reviews section of the app store shows me I am not alone.

What's going on? I am using Firefox on so many devices but not on my ipad it's just not usable anymore.

Thanks in advance for help .

My Firefox on iOS has crashed recently; I usually get a pop up that offers all tabs to be restored afterwards. I didn’t have an option for that this time, is there a way the tabs can be restored manually? Had a couple tabs open in private for school research links and would hate to have to go searching for them again. Thanks!

Firefox used to be my go to browser in all my devices. But since the latest updates, it has been buggy and slow to the point of not being an option anymore. I have seen that there are many reviews in the AppStore pointing to this, but seems that they go unnoticed. And the fact that you have to actually go through a series of hops to get support is unbearable. There are many examples of how the application’s performance has been degraded: - when switching to another app (i.e. notepad) and then coming back, it freezes for some 20 seconds before it crashes altogether - when opening a new tab, if you want to access the menu (some call it the “burger” menu on the upper right corner), the app takes almost a full minute before displaying it. - sometimes even opening a new tab, it takes forever to respond to the keyboard entry.

Hopefully in some future versions all these issues get fixed but for now, it has been a total buggy experience.

I use this for more than 5 years on iOS, but the last 2-3 versions became horrible. On iPhone XR with iOS 15, the app stops working if I swipe down the control center and go back to the app. When I start the app, the most visited sites and their icons are flashing for 1-2 secs, and some sites are really slow (it is hard to scroll, it almost freezes). I hope you can fix these bugs. If you need screencast to see the phenomenon, I can provide it as well. Thank you!

Every time I launch Firefox for iOS on my iPhone or iPad the app either crashes or hangs. I am using “old” Apple products both operating on iOS 15.7. Crashing occurs pretty much every time now I open the app (version Firefox 106.0 (20303)). I usually only have a handful of tabs open at any time so I don’t think my browsing habits are the cause? I have also noticed “flickering” between the shortcuts on my Firefox homepage - the name or icon for a few of the shortcuts switches around like some kind of identity crisis - so something is obviously glitching. The app hanging occurs when I am entering login/password details. Sometimes it takes 20 seconds to progress from the username field to the password field but more often the app just hangs and I have to relaunch and try again. I am almost at the point of ditching Firefox, the user experience is very bad. Any tips or suggestions please?

I had about 250 open tabs and they just disappeared and I can’t retrieve them. By any chance is there any way that you have a record of what I’ve searched. I never saved them in my history and was bookmarking them slowly until last night when they just disappeared. And this is the second time it’s actually happened

Is there any way that Firefox can send me my search history so I can find the missing tabs. And why does it happen

I’ve been using Firefox synced to my account on my iPad for a while with no problems, and only started running into this problem today. The app for the most part works normally, but when I open specifically the history tab the whole app crashes. I can still use Firefox on my android and computer completely fine, and have tried clearing some of my history using my phone, to no avail. Only the history tab does this- downloads, bookmarks, and reading list are all fine. Any advice on how to fix this?

Dears,

Since a week of 2 Firefox freezes when I type text in the address bar. After some time the text I typed start appearing. Also websites loading are sometimes freezing. Switching to another app on the iPad makes Firefox unfreeze. However need to use the reload function. Version Firefox 106.2 (21661) iPad Pro (11-inch) iOS 15.7 I removed Firefox, rebooted the iPad and reinstalled Firefox. That shortly seem to help, but now same issues apparent.

Thanks and best regards,

Jelle Klaas
