On Firefox Android, every time i completely close the app and reopen it, I'm logged out of sync. Of course this is incredibly annoying and makes sync basically useless, since having to start a fresh session multiple times a day not only takes time but it creates a huge list of "devices" so sending tabs back and forth becomes a nightmare.

Any idea what might cause this? AFAIK I'm not swapping IP's multiple times a day and i haven't used a VPN during the time this started happening. (I do have ProtonVPN installed, but it's a fairly trustworthy company so i doubt it's that.)

Hi,

I am using Firefox on Android and every few minutes it will just refuse to load the page. This doesn't happen in Firefox on my laptop so I don't believe it is an Internet speed issue. Often it will just not load and timeout. I usually quit Firefox and clear the cache and that seems to help temporarily but a few minutes later it's doing it again. It's becoming unusable at this point and I have read posts from other people with similar issues. Can we get this fixed in general please? I couldn't find a way to contact Mozilla about this.

Does anyone have any tips or settings I can change to eliminate or reduce this problem?

I'm on Android 13 and Firefox 122.0

Let me know if need any other info. Thanks.

I have noticed that mobile browsers (including Firefox Mobile) don't seem to give you the option to clear cookies and other website data on close while preserving website info/cookies of sites you want to keep logged into.

Is this a feature that will eventually be implemented in Firefox? Or is there some kind of limitation in Android/iOS that makes implementing this not possible or tricky?

How to always allow cookies on android?

I have searched in vain to find a way to keep cookies for a certain site on my android. Everything I see says to go to privacy in settings, but that doesn't exist on my phone's browser.

It's really irritating to have the site always send me an email, warning me that I have logged in, as well as insisting on texting me a code. Telling it to recognize my device does nothing if the cookies are deleted. (And, no, I'm not going to set it to always save all cookies when I choose "quit" on the browser.)

Please add this ability, Firefox! My computer browser has had the ability for years and years.

Cookies don't clear bug while tab still open

The Delete Browsing Data option, manually or by the quit button, doesn't clear cookies if the tab is still open.

Simple example: go to youtube.com, search for anything, e.g. "asmr". In the same tab, go to a new site, e g. google.com. Then go to settings and Delete Browsing Data, with all selected but downloads. Now, all tabs are closed, so in a new tab go to youtube.com, and click in the search and the previous search, e.g. "asmr", shows up in a droplist.

This droplist behavior shouldn't occur when all data is cleared. This behavior doesn't occur if the tab is closed before Delete Browsing History is selected.

Firefox Android 113 switches off Desktop Notifications for web version of YouTube

Hello, I believe that my Firefox android browser updated to version 113 on May 19, 2023. Up until that point, I had no issues with getting notifications sent to my device from the web version of YouTube accessed through Firefox. I could refresh the page and leave the Firefox app and still receive notifications. Ever since the update, every time the YouTube page is reloaded (which also happens when you leave the app) the Desktop Notifications toggle in the YouTube desktop mode settings switches to off. I can switch this toggle back on, the page is refreshed, and this toggle (and only this toggle) automatically switches to off. This happens every time and I am no longer receiving notificationsto my device. The YouTube app for Android is not involved in this, as I use Firefox to access the web version YouTube as an alternative. Please provide information that can help resolve this issue and/or please make a note of this issue so it can be resolved in the future. Thank you so much.
