Prior to the 6/16/25 release, hitting the back button on the three button control on a page with no previous pages would open the home page without closing the current tab. After the update, it closes the tab before opening the home page. This was useful for quickly opening multiple tabs, as well as preventing accidentaly closing a tab. Please revert this change, or make it a setting.

I've been using FF nightly on Android for a long time now, I've set the address bar to the bottom. a couple months back I got an update that added navigation buttons and a new tab button right below the address bar. this was the best update I've received, so convenient and allowed me to stop using the menu altogether. everything was just one tap away.

attaching a screenshot I found on Google for demonstration of that layout.

recently, I guess there was another update and the change had been reverted. it's a huge downgrade for my user experience to be honest. now the address bar went back to being one small strip, that squeezes everything tightly and forces me to interact with the menu again when I want to go back or open a new tab...

Hello, I'm using Firefox for Android and actively work with bookmarks. I really miss the feature that would allow me to edit bookmarks directly from the search results — for example, to rename or even delete them. This functionality seems to be missing.

Am I doing something wrong, is there a trick to it, or could this be a small update worth considering?

Thanks a lot for any response.

Best regards, Meik Alef

I rarely go online so I simply use my phone's tether connection the few times I do. I recently upgraded to a new phone and 5G service. Now I discover I can no longer get onto the internet via either tethering or hotspot. The phone connects with the desktop okay and the two devices know about each other but Firefox cannot find any servers. It worked just fine under 4G. Luckily I did a software update of Firefox on my desktop before the new phone and used it a couple of times so I know it is fully up to date. My desktop is Linux mint but I don't think the pblm is there. I am suspicious it is the handshaking that the browser has to do with the 5G network.

Has anyone tried this yet?

I'm using a Huawei P20. I've been using FireFox for a long time mainly for accessing YouTube through the browser. After recent updates when I try to play a video it always appears to be really zoomed-in and completely unwatchable, decided to switch to WaterFox to resolve my issue, but after the last update WaterFox also has the same issue.

Can anyone provide some help with this issue?

As the title says, on the NEC LAVIE Tab T11 11QHD2, a tablet device, the UI for tablets does not appear, and instead the UI for smartphones is forcibly displayed. The screen size is 11.2 inches, which is not the size that would allow for a smartphone UI. This is a very frustrating bug, so please fix it.

device NEC LAVIE Tab T11 11QHD2

OS version Android 13

  • We have found a serious bug where the official support site does not work when the set language is Japanese, and when you try to send a request, you are returned to the initial screen, and are sent round in circles forever without ever reaching the request submission screen.

This bug does not occur when the set language is English, but it is a serious bug so please fix this as well.

Здравствуйте. Скажите, как удалить определенный сайт из истории.

Открываю Историю - делаю поиск. Отображаются посещённые страницы, но нет никаких меню. Долгое нажатие не работает. А по нажатию переходит на сайт.

Понимаю, что можно удалить всю историю, но мне надо только один сайт удалить.

Hello there, currently it is impossible for Firefox on Android to disable the "Show search terms instead of URLs" setting that hides the URL when searching through the address bar with the default search engine. How may I disable this? I'd like to always be shown the full URL everywhere.
