Firefox for Android Community Forum

After much searching and guesswork, I've finally worked out that the "cross in a box" icon on the Firefox android search bar is to allow qr codes to be scanned. Maybe you could add a tool-tip for these more obscure icons?

Moin. Copy fast URL ?? Tapping address bar marks all of the www by default. OK. But only long pressing calls the context menu for copying etc. This is not very useable for me. Too often the marked range changes or gets unmarked.

What about a default context dropout menue by marked text? like in Brave etc.

Hi. So I've been having this issue where, I search something in google, it searches what I asked it to. Then I search again and it finds what I asked it to. The third time if I search again it'll go back to the first thing I tried to search as if i just pressed BACK twice. Something similar happens if I search for something, and then if I search the second thing and tap on the website and then press BACK, it'll go back to the first Google result I ssearched. It's been a few weeks this has been happening and the only thing that'll TEMPORARILY fix it is if I close firefox. If you need any more information I'd be happy to help you help me. Thank you!

I no longer have the primary email account I registered with Firefox (It was a paid for private domain that I discontinued a few years back). how do I make my second email address on file the primary?

I tired to log into my FIREFOX account by my usual way which is tapping the logo. A new screen ask for permission to make changes to my FIREFOX website. although I said NO , it continued to install UPDATES and UPGRADES that I do not and that I am unable to undo.

I have tried to restore or or recover my former FIREFOX WEBSITE , BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK. I think the changes are the the results of an AI takeover.

i switched from MICROSOFT EDGE to FIREFOX when things like this began to happen.

Please , help me retrieve my former FIREFOX website. I spend a lot of time on it, and I HATE the "UPGRADES?"!

Where did background playback go? I can’t even use the phone with one hand, and suddenly I can’t fit more than six tabs in there? What are you doing with this browser? I have Firefox on Android set as an unrestricted app, yet it started closing my tabs anyway. What are you doing with this browser?

bold textIch möchte wieder den Zugriff auf meine Passwörter mit dem damals angemeldeten Googlemail-account: mstrelow.ms@googlemail.com bei Firefox War lange Zeit in Haft-Firefox mit dem damaligen Account zuletzt genutzt vor ca 10 Jahren Eine Mail mit Bestätigungscode wird an den oben genannten Account geschickt,habe jedoch keinen Zugriff mehr darauf, weil dieser ja nach der langen Zeit von Google gelöscht wurde.

Greetings from the Pokemon world I don't know what this you might be but I have taken the browser out of the split tunnel off my VPN but it is still coming up as my real IP address I don't know what's going on but any help at your earliest convenience will be much appreciated.

On some websites Firefox blocks entry of texts in text fields manifested in 2 ways: keyboard in Android pops but no text is entered when typing, or no keyboard pops. The tried refreshing pages, switching to desktop mode, clearing browsing data nothing works. Attempting to report this to a site:https://ambientweather.net. Ultimately I had to download and install a different browser to access the site. I was already logged into the site and other field changes were correctly implemented. On pages with 2 search fields, one site-wide and one in my search context, both fields failed When switching to desktop version, I noticed a typical cookie notice which I hoped was taking the focus away from the other fields but closing that notice did not resolve the problem.

While I assume a design implementation error by sites, this may be related to the ongoing memory conflicts one experiences when doing multiple searches on heavy video sites. As with the old Firefox Android, Firefox slows down and can't seem to dump all it's cache, apparently, to handle more input. in those cases a dump of most browsing data generally clears the problem, but didn't help here. I suspect an underlying Firefox cause because I've seen this over several random sites but with no clear pattern. I just revisited the site above and it works as designed now.

Consider this the equivalent to trying to use a PC without a keyboard, it's really a catastrophic fail.

Firefox android, even without all the extension it takes atleast 25% of my battery 5k mah (in an hr). Firefox being default browser for years I can tolerate it but PLEASE can you optimize it more so it won't be a hassle,thank you.

Dear Mozilla Support Team, I am writing to report a significant security breach involving my Firefox browser that resulted in session hijacking my Firefox devloper browser email was ( [email removed]@gmail.com ) in panic log out form my account and reset the laptop now I don't have access to the data and the compromise of multiple high-value accounts (Discord, Rockstar, and Telegram). Incident Details: Date of Incident: February 2026 Primary Exploit Identified: BeEF (Browser Exploitation Framework) OS: Windows 11 Symptoms: allowing an unauthorized party identified as operating from an IP in Vietnam to bypass 2FA by stealing active session tokens. Despite having security measures in place, the attacker successfully: Accessed my saved Google passwords. Reset my Rockstar Games and Discord account passwords. Gained access to my Telegram account (which has since been deleted). Technical Observations: Standard scans with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes did not immediately detect the "infostealer" responsible, suggesting the use of "Living-off-the-Land" (LotL) scripts or a sophisticated browser-based hook that persisted even after clearing basic cache. I am reporting this to help Mozilla investigate how Firefox's cookie storage and session management can be further hardened against BeEF-style hooks and unauthorized token extraction.

A site I use, bestcrosswords.com, has been acting weirdly since late on 11/18. Instead of the highlighting changing with the active word, the highlighting has gone completely haywire. I have already posted regarding that and filed a bug report (the problem does not occur in DuckDuckGo), but the site has started giving a suggestion I cannot follow.

Please see the image. I can see how the suggestion works on a desktop, but not a phone. Please forgive me if it's considered too obvious to document, but despite searching the phone's software and the Web for advice, I cannot find anyway to follow the site's suggestion.

Could someone clarify the point for me?

Thank you.

Please add an option to set a default language to translate into. I often have to translate Japanese webpages, and each time I need to scroll through the list of "Translate to" languages to find English.

1. How can I locate the FF version on my devices. I have Android 14 OS. Today (February 16) I located a versio 147.4 will be released. Is this automatically available for my devices or do I nèd to download. If so how.. Ðo I get notifications.

We need to add customization to the bottom panel located under the search bar, as well as the ability to set any wallpaper on the home screen and add a black AMOLED theme for the browser
