Firefox for Android Community Forum

For maybe a few weeks, I can't synchronise my account, I've tried to log out / log in multiple times but the "Synchronise now" button does nothing and the "Sync" one on the devices tabs just get stuck on "Synchronising..." but eventually does nothing. I can send a tab to Firefox desktop, but that's all. Both devices are logged on my account. I can't choose what to synchronise because it's greyed out.

Collections bookmarks on the Firefox for Android homepage. I have Firefox sync. I have many regular bookmarks. Collections bookmarks from Android or obviously not available or synced with my Firefox for desktop. Are they synced or backed up at all anywhere? I cannot find them other than inside Collections. If I uninstall Firefox on my Android, Google Pixel phone and reinstall it will everything in the homepage collections be lost?

Hello I am facing a problem hope you can help me. I just factory reset my phone and install firefox again with my account but it didn't access or sync all my saved password.

Please help 🙏😭.

I've tried disabling it with the secret menu and it makes no difference. Seeing as Mozilla don't give a singular toss about the needs of their neurodivergent users I want to install an old version of firefox for android with a version of the UI that doesn't make me want to self harm. I know how to disable android updates but not install an old version safely. How do I do this?

Attached a screenshot of the new UI. As an aside if anyone can recommend the drugs that the people who designed and approved this ugly tosh are on I'd love to know what they are, must be good stuff for them all to make decisions this asinine.

My account has not been updated since 2023?? Is there something you can do about this? Also there were links I clicked, the questions, and those haven't been updated.

hi I would like to download and install firefox for android which if I understand correctly is named fenix, without going to an app store. I don't see a direct link on the main pages on the website. I noticed at https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/ it looks like it might be possible to get the apk. My concern would be does this violate any terms or licenses? Is this 100 percent ok to do? Also does the firefox owners have anything written answering this? There are websites that imply sideloading firefox might be considered using without permission and I definitely don't want that.

I use nav bar at bottom and with old menu having reload, back, forward all at the bottom of menu, it meant that I could use Firefox single handedly.

Now with the new menu design which is very nice and shiny (well done), all common actions are on top of menu, close to mid- top of the screen. This makes it hard or awkward to use it worth one hand.

Is it possible, to have the layout of menu adjusted when nav bar is at the bottom?

This post is a follow-up to a tech’s response regarding David Cote's Google Play comment: Following a recent update to my Samsung Firefox browser, the option to position the Address/Navigation Buttons at the bottom has disappeared. This setting was previously found under Settings > Customize. Interestingly, my Pixel phone still retains this feature, as shown in the images below. In contrast, the tablet's browser now displays the Address/Navigation Buttons at the top, along with "Tab" links, resembling the Firefox browser on my laptop. Visual examples are included below for reference.

Hi,

I'm quite annoyed about the new Android Firefox menu update. It takes up so much more space on the screen for not really adding any extra usability and the New Tab button is entirely gone in spite of there being plenty of space to have included it. Where did it go? I'd really prefer to have it back.
