Firefox for Android Community Forum

I'd like to try out the built-in VPN, but can't find it. I've seen many older posts about this, but nothing recent. It's now August of 2026.

I'm using Firefox 154.0.1 on Android 16. I'm in the United States.

I'm logged into my browser with my Firefox account. I know it's working as I can open browser tabs between my mobile device and other devices using my account.

I'm not seeing the built-in VPN feature.

"VPN" does not appear in Settings as described in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mobile-android-vpn

By comparison, attached is a screenshot of what I have in Settings > Privacy and Security.

Any guidance?

I tested the security of my VPN and found firefox browser was allowing the WebRTC for video/audio which it is built into the browser is reporting my IP address. All I need to do is open about:config then go to media.peerconnection.enabled and change it from true to FALSE

Now after about:config is typed in the address bar the page stops loading or to say the page will not load. I am doing this on Android Firefoxs home page, beside all the different browsers you can choose. What's up with all that stuff, Please help me plug this leak! Helped me open the config program. Thank you, Mudiver

The website mozilla.github.io/policy-templates makes mention of the FTPProxy option that can be set for Firefox. However the admx file under github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/windows/firefox.admx makes no mention of that setting. Is the documentation in the admx file incomplete or am I missing something?

I apologize for the mess I made entering duplicate requests. The is the latest UPDATED request on 6/24/2026 at 3:30 PM EDT

I'm using Firefox for Android version 152.0.1 (Build #2016167575) on a Galaxy S24 Plus phone running Android 16.

Firefox is set as the default browser. It always opens whenever a task requires a browser. But when I try to open an HTML file by tapping or long pressing it, the dialog window that opens doesn't show Firefox as an option. Screenshot_#1_20260624.jpg

I have checked the settings in "Apps that can open links", all apps there show "In other app" In "Default apps", Firefox is under "Browser app". Screenshot_#2_20260624.jpg

What do I need to do so Firefox is either the default app for HTML files or at least shows up in the "Dialog window"? Screenshot_#1_20260624.jpg

Thank you!

Why is there no FIFA world cup widget in my Firefox for Android, version 152.0.1? I have looked through all the settings, but there is nothing. When I use the search feature in settings, there is a search result when searching for "world cup" which redirects me to the "Homepage settings", but there is nothing.

Please fix this! I specifically set it in the settings (on Android) so that no websites open in apps. And yet it keeps asking me whether to open them! There’s no option to "don’t ask again".

Here’s an example: I have two accounts on AliExpress — one is logged into the app, the other in the web browser! And I absolutely don’t want it to open in the app, because what for???

Please fix it so that when I have it set in the settings not to open in the app, it really doesn’t open — and doesn’t keep asking like an idiot!?

i'm an android phone user (A15) and i really don't like mobile website layouts, particularly when most websites fit elements to the screen aspect ratio instead of letting me pan around a more traditional 16:9 webpage. i've tried all sorts of user agent and javascript spoofing, but nothing really beats firefox's native "desktop site" toggle, but it sadly doesn't stay on across different tabs or sessions and i have to turn it on manually every time. it should be pretty simple to add this feature, and i'm sure that there's a lot of support for it too. thanks!

I noticed on both Android 15 and 16 that the FF app shows 'Ask Bing' (see attachment) when you invoke the copy/select all/search etc. popup. .

I have not found a way to remove this. Any ideas?

Hi, my firefox appears to be missing its navigation/toolbar. I only have a single bottom bar for the address bar, home, tab and the three dots. I would like to have the back, forward button, bookmarks to be pinned on the toolbar area. I try to use the Secret Setting but it does not have the option to enable toolbar. I have included two screenshots, the orange circle depicting my current situation. I would like to have something similar to the toolbar (Samsung Internet Browser) in the other screenshot with teal circle.
