Firefox for Android Community Forum

I appreciate that my browser is blocking trackers. I even have two additional extensions to boost the power of this. But I don't want the announcement every time I load up my browser. How do I turn this off? I'm using Firefox 153.0.3 (Build #2016176519), on a Google Pixel 7 running Android 16, kernel 6.1.145-android14-11-gfa1d6308d1fe-ab14691759 #1 Fri Jan 9 16:33:46 UTC 2026.

Hello, I just recently installed the Firefox Mobile stable version, after using the beta version for a long time. one thing that annoys me a bit is that when opening a new tab (plus sign) or going into the search bar directly, the focus is on the search bar and the shortcut area is greyed out. When I want to select a shortcut, I have to press twice, once in the general area, then on the shortcut itself. In the beta, the area was not greyed out and the shortcuts were only one click away, instead of two.

Is this the expected behavior in the stable version? And is there a way to change it?

Best regards

Hi - Is it possible to backup and/or transfer pinned shortcuts (that show up when you open a new tab) from one android device to another? Is it possible to sync changes to pins? Last, is it possible to increase the amount of space for pinned sites? Thanks in advance for the help!

When I open a new tab, it says "I'm a temporary text to indicate you're on the new Tab Fragment"

Seems like a bug and I didn't know the best place to report it
