Is there a way to stop videos playing automatically on websites? This would be useful in several ways as i often listen to music or audiobooks from other apps whilst browsing and the videos which are never wanted cut off my other audio. Even when not listening to another audio source the sudden unexpected and unwanted noise is extremely annoying.

I have always used Firefox for all browsing and Facebook. About a month ago I stopped being able to use Firefox for Facebook. I get an error message and a blank page. It is only an issue with Facebook. Other sites work. Annoying to have to leave Firefox and go to Safari for FB. Any ideas what happened? Thanks.

So normally when I scroll down the tabs bar goes away and when I scroll up it reappears. But about a third of the time, it won’t reappear even when I scroll up. The only way to see my tabs again is to completely quit the app and then restart it. Please advise.

Google Lead Services interfering with Firefox searches on iPhone

Google Lead Services interferes with many of my keyword searches on my iPhone using Firefox, giving me a search results page that looks normal until I click one of the links. Then it returns a "bad URL" error message. If I manually enter the same web link, the page opens without issue. This only happens when I use Firefox on my iPhone; Google Lead Services does not interfere with Safari searches.

Attached is a search results page, followed by the response I get when I click any of the links on the page.

Unable to open PDFs after downloading them via Firefox

I have been using my iPad for about two weeks now and have been noticing that I can't open some pdfs. In the file browser they appear without a preview and if I click on them nothing appears (see Image).

Since then I've tried to find out how that happens and have noticed, that whenever I download a pdf in Firefox with my iPad via: - Opening the pdf in Firefox - Clicking on the context menu on the topright with the three Bars_ - Clicking Share - Clicking on Save to Files - Proceeding to save the pdf at whatever place

I've also tried click on Open in GoodNotes after clicking on Share, what is where I first noticed this problem, because then I get some mysterious error message saying something like "Unable to Import: Import Failed: Cannot open URL at file ....".

It seems to me as if the PDFs I download via the Firefox browser on my iPad seem to be broken somehow. I have also tried different sources in the web and wherever I download a pdf with the Browser the same issue appears.

Whenever I download PDFs with Safari I dont face that problem, however I'm a quite happy Firefox Desktop user and have been for a lot of years now and as such I would not like to have to use Safari on my iPad.

I have also tried restarting my iPad multiple times and have reinstalled the Firefox app and looked for updates. Furthermore I am a 100% sure those files I have in my File Browser or rather am downloading via Firefox are in the right format in this case PDF.

Thank you in advance, Raoul

PS: Since the uploading images feature doesn't seem to work for me I will upload the images afterwards
