Firefox for Android Community Forum

Although Firefox for Android has support for PWA websites in general,I see that it doesn't detect all pwa websites and creates a simple shortcut instead! For example go to mytuner-radio.com and try to install it as a Pwa, it just creates a shortcut!

If you try this on other browsers like Vivaldi for Android, it installs it as an app, without the need to open the whole browser alongside all the tabs,every time you tap on its icon !

Please fix this and make all sites that support pwa detectable !

When a page refreshes, it goes to a completely different part of the page. It's very irritating. And whilst I'm here - it is extremely rude, that Mozilla provide an email address in the Play store, but this email is unmonitored. If there is an email, it should be used. Or remove the email

Hi developers, I'm running Firefox on an Android tablet and ran into an issue. When I enable the desktop version of the browser, accessing websites (like searching on Baidu) fails to load the desktop version. I compared Edge browser with Firefox and found through website UserAgent detection that when Edge runs desktop websites, it switches UserAgent to Linux, while Firefox maintains Android UserAgent for desktop sites. This causes some websites to ignore network requests and load mobile versions. To resolve this, we need to disable and re-enable desktop website access first, which may allow the site to respond to desktop requests.

Can I adjust the settings to switch to the desktop version of the website? I don't want to switch to another browser.

When I view my Wordpress website on Firefox/Android, the CSS @media changes are not rendered. The change is simply moving the text from the top of the screen (where it is on the desktop Firefox) to the bottom of the screen (in the phone app). - Delete data when exit is checked in the Firefox phone app. - I also go into the Firefox phone app browser settings and clear the data manually. - I go into Settings > Apps on my phone to the Firefox app and clear the cache there as well. Yet, when I launch Firefox again and view the website, no changes occur. I have done this several times and still the changes do not occur. What is wrong here? Why doesn't Firefox/Android make the changes?

How do I get the YouTube homepage to load more recommended content like it usually does?

Right now when I access the homepage a small portion of recommended content is loaded followed by a loading icon that doesn't seem to load anything.

For the past two weeks, I haven’t been able to access youtube.com on Firefox. Every other browser loads it without any issues. I’ve already tried switching devices, reinstalling Firefox, changing networks and locations—but nothing fixes it. The YouTube app works fine, and this problem only occurs when opening youtube.com in Firefox.

On desktop Firefox, I get:

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to youtube.com. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

On mobile Firefox, I get:

Cannot Complete Request Additional information about this problem or error is currently unavailable.

I would appreciate any help resolving this issue.

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.

Youtube's mobile site isn't loading since the new Firefox update. It gets to the attached screen then doesn't go any farther and I can't click on anything. I tried disabling my extensions and this didn't fix the problem. The desktop site loads but is not very mobile friendly.

Hi, Since this new version of Firefox, I have been unable to use PayPal. I get a message saying ' unable to display the page if another website has embedded it' - it does this when PayPal tries to load it's one time passcode page.This is happening on multiple sites, and has only started since version 146 issue, which indicates an issue with the browser, not the website as suggested in Firefox help ?!

Why doesn't Firefox on android allow purchases of videos and books with amazon. I have to access my account through Chrome or the ms browser. This is really rubbish and is getting me close to leaving you entirely because it is such a handicap.

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.

I have been unable to see or access the yahoo comments in Firefox on my android phone since about a week after the new year. Has something changed? How can this be fixed? Please help.

Why is it that on my chrome browser on a dhhs site for me to login to my account I can login to it just fine with the correct password and everything as the dhhs site does work for all browsers but when im using Firefox with the same information im not able to login ?

Firefox used to be good but it's just becoming broken garbage. I just tried the Opera browser which lets you listen to youtube with the screen locked and tab minimalised. Something that used to function on Firefox but is now just another broken feature. Not to mention that for over a year now the comments haven't been loading on youtube videos, which I posted on here all the way back then and got no response. Time to put this useless garbage in the trash can...

Since the November 6th update, my input from SwiftKey keyboard specifically on Duckduckgo site (not when searching from Firefox address bar) is being very disrupted. Single click on spacebar is ignored and autocomplet filles in a different spot than the cursor. This doesn't happen an any other website an also does not happen on chrome for android on Duckduckgo. Also this does not happen with gboard in Firefox. Any ideas?
