Hi. I use Firefox for Android. In settings, there is an option called "external download manager" (an approximate translation from my language; framed on the screenshot anyway). And I can't resolve the difference whether I turn it on or not. What does this affect? Thanks in advance!

Initially the bookmarks on Android started appearing in apparently random order after every quit/restart. I signed out of Laptop and Android, then signed in again and set up syncing again on both, but now the bookmarks on my Laptop no longer appear on Android at all, even after syncing.

I recently noticed that firefox doesn't save my logins on android. I first thought maybe it was due to a settings to delete all save data on closing (with some exceptions made) that I made on Firefox for my PC that has the same account as on my android. So I first cleared all app data but it didn't change a thing. I uninstalled and reinstalled from the Google play store but same issue. Really hope that this is fixed. Firefox is my go-to browser on my PC so having this issue on my android is quite disappointing.

Does Mozilla offer somewhere to download older versions of Firefox for Android? I've had problems since November when I got this phone and downloaded the latest version of Firefox and every update since with no fix. I'm not able to view comments or make a comment on YouTube. Other people here have the same problem. I've disabled add-ons, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. There's also an annoying Firefox pop-up when viewing videos in full screen that can be fixed by adjusting a setting in about:config but I've just discovered about: config has been removed!!! 90% of my internet usage is YouTube using Firefox for Android, so the problems are significant to me. An older version works perfectly on my older phone and would like that version on my new phone. Is there a way I can do this? Thank you.

Lemme Describe my question

I'm adding an extension and the language of that site is something that I don't know so I described to translate it. When I click on translate I saw "Translate Language 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵 to 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲" Mann first thing that I want to translate that unknown language to "English" And your default language is English instead of "𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲" And in to Section 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗮𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴. 𝗔𝘀 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵.

Please Add auto detection of language how may I find that what language I want to translate if I visit that site for first time and idk in which kinda language that site is operating.

In this case chrome's translation is way too better

No trust. Won't keep a browser that Google has to know everything. This is why I downloaded one. But search bar shows Google is there. I factory reset before cause of no trust. I'll do again if have too. I have asked for help on their helpline. Lied too, manipulated and scammed out of money.i had, passcodes, passwords, and fingerprints set up, and all info of accounts. Still, Google wouldn't give my accounts back that had money in, but would put an old account up. Sick of nosy, un trusted browsers!!
