I have iOS 17 installed on my iPhone, Firefox as default browser and DuckDuckgo as search engine. However, when I select a text and in the context menu I choose "search in internet", it does the DuckDuckGo search in Safari. How can I change it?

App links suddenly stopped working. Links for YouTube or Reddit no longer open the app. When a site does offer to open an app, it just brings me to the App Store instead of opening the app that’s already installed. How can I fix this?

IOS/iPadOS Dark Mode Theme No Longer Working

With version 124 of Firefox, the ‘Dark Mode’ theme no longer works. Whether I set the theme to “Use System Light/Dark Mode” or if I manually set the theme to dark, it st… (read more)

With version 124 of Firefox, the ‘Dark Mode’ theme no longer works. Whether I set the theme to “Use System Light/Dark Mode” or if I manually set the theme to dark, it still always shows ‘light’ mode. FYI, my iPad settings are set to ‘Dark’ mode.

I prefer to read white text on a black background - much easier on the eyes! In earlier releases of Firefox, I was able to enjoy reading stories. Now I must set my iPad (manually whenever I want to use Firefox to read) to ‘Smart Invert’ (which will switch the Firefox window to dark mode), then turn off ‘Smart Invert’ to do anything else on my iPad.

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just a few days ago, firefox on my iPad started bringing up a blank (about) page when I click on links from other sites. Some sites work as usual but others do not. I’m assuming the problem is with Firefox because I tried chrome and it seem to work OK. But I like Firefox. Any suggestions?.

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 !!!

Links don’t open related Apps as in Safari

I receive links from a few sources (i.e. Wall Street Journal) that have lists of link’s to articles both on their webpage and their App.

If I have Safari as the default browser the link directs me to the app, where the full article is available. If I have Firefox as the default browser (which I prefer) it directs me to the web version, which is incomplete, as it requires a more expensive subscription to access the full content.

Why can’t Firefox link directly to the App if present on the device?

Seems like the Mac iOS pop-up Translation function (when you highlight a text on a webpage and a pop-up menu comes up with "Copy," "Translate," "Look Up," etc.) isn't working on Firefox 123.4. I've checked my Settings and it doesn't seem like there's anything that should be interfering, and it worked fine until about three days ago, when suddenly every attempt to Translate gets a "translation is not available right now, try again later" error.

Any ideas? What sucks is I'm not sure if this is a Firefox problem or a Mac iOS problem. Thanks for any insights.
