The option to use the old menu instead of the horribly designed new one in 142 is currently hidden inside the "Nimbus Experiments" section that is only available once switching into debug mode.

This really needs to be made more visible so that users know they aren't (currently) trapped in the new one.

This post is a follow-up to a tech’s response regarding David Cote's Google Play comment: Following a recent update to my Samsung Firefox browser, the option to position the Address/Navigation Buttons at the bottom has disappeared. This setting was previously found under Settings > Customize. Interestingly, my Pixel phone still retains this feature, as shown in the images below. In contrast, the tablet's browser now displays the Address/Navigation Buttons at the top, along with "Tab" links, resembling the Firefox browser on my laptop. Visual examples are included below for reference.

I have an quite annoying( disturbing) issue related to your browser. The problem is that Firefox is stuck into Desktop mode.

Since I have an Samsung Galaxy Tab S9Fe ( SM-X516BEE). However I've never experienced it on previous versions ( below 120-30 something). My pervious version is: 138.0.2

Not only that all of my serach results are the same as on PC( since Android is LINUX based), bus also that many pages are opened as if they were on PC. But as well that the graphics is completly wierd.

However I have already Deactivated Desctop mode- but however it's still stuck in Desktop mode.

So my vonclution is that Samsung devices( Tablets) make it easy for itself and make it equal to LINUX/ UBUTNU.

So it also sems that all versions published on Google Play= to Desktop( PC/ LINUX). So please get rid of this annoying stuff and publish an regular mobile version.

Why do you have a leave feedback button in the app but it leads to the question section instead of leaving feedback options. Lastly, why is it so hard to make Firefox display in dark mode across every webpage?

Hi. I have some feature requests for Firefox for Android.

- pos of the address bar when typing: The feature to change the position of address bar is useful. But other search bars and the suggestions are still on the top. While putting the address bar makes it easy to access, it confuses my eye movements. I think there should be an option to change the address bar when typing. - shortcuts: I'm using a Samsung Galaxy phone and they have a feature to set some shortcuts like forward and search in app to an action. On this point, Firefox is inferior than Chrome for me. Chrome supports these shortcuts.

Hi guys,

Recently my hamburger icon menu (the one that has options like refresh, share etc) broke and all the options are massive. It looks incredibly stupid and is really annoying, is there any way for me to fix it without reinstalling the browser?

I figure this is the best section for asking this question, sorry if it isn't!

Thanks!

Could you make a shortcut to switch on between "dark mode" and "bright mode" in the mobile app browser + pc desktop browser?

There are enough webpages that don't show correctly in dark mode. It is not convenient to change the dark mode each time in settings!

Thank you

I came from kiwi browser & they had a customized button beside the bottom address bar that can be use as shortcuts.

One of the shortcuts that cna be mapped is extensions. Can Firefox add something like that? That would make ur browser much better? Could be enabled disabled so it's by choice

Ongoing bug that first started occuring on Firefox Nightly before being introduced to Firefox stable and now showing on forks such as Waterfox and Fennec

When viewing first view it takes up 3/5 of screen to extra click of full menu covering virtually entire page, also slower both from a usable standard along with the animation introduced.

Classic menu is simpler to use especially when with different browsers such as Chrome, webpages and many other none browser Android apps. Default use of address bar at top - same as on desktop - means that navigation involves moving thumb from top right of screen to bottom, instead of keeping in same area.

Example attached on how the function did and should still work.
