Firefox for Android Community Forum

I love firefox mobile, however there is one element that drives me absolutely crazy while using it. I want to use the Homepage Shortcuts feature because I like the idea of pinning my most frequently used sites for easy access when I launch a new tab. HOWEVER the shortcuts screen decides that its a great idea to just list every website I have browsed on it. This is completely abysmal and clutters it up. It makes me shut this feature off completely and just use a black empty screen as my new tab page. Turning off the recently visited toggle makes ZERO difference. Please for the love of God fix this awful design decision and put the power of our homepage and new tab page back into the hands of the users. The sponsored ad thing was bad enough but maybe if people had more control of every aspect of what they get to see they might actually use the Homepage Shortcuts instead of disabling it entirely.

When accessing only specific web pages, the screen freezes during loading. Backing, refresh, etc., are not working at all. The only way is to close the tab. I'm curious about the solution.

Google Lens type camera in mobile and pc search engines and browsers. I got on my Android phone Firefox browser shortcut and Google's, Googles's has a camera next to the mic than when you click it it gives 2 options to take and analyze, search photo, or use for same reason a photo from gallery. Will Firefox ad this type of feature on mobile and pc? And the magnifying glass is ai search.

I didn't intentionally do anything to either Firefox or bitwarden but, today, the bitwarden extension suddenly no longer works. I got an error saying that I must use Firefox for Android which is, of course, what I'm using. Wifi? But, I can't get back to that screen to take a screenshot.

When I use Firefox on Samsung DeX, a blank and big box appears under the address bar. This box disappears when I place the address bar on the bottom. Switching back to the top brings the box back. What might be causing this?

From time to time, when while playing YouTube Premium videos in Firefox on my Android Galaxy S26 (same was on S24 before for years) I connect the phone to Android Auto of my Ford Mustang 2024 with USB cable, the playback stops. After that I still can browse the web, but can not play any video until I twice in a row kill and restart the Firefox (loosing all private pages, etc). Disconnect/reconnect of the cable does not help. There are no any errors reported when it happen. It looks as some connectivity or YouTube problem, except the moment I restart Firefox twice everything goes back to normal. Since during that connection the audio is getting redirected to the car speakers, I suspect the problem may be audio-related, but I have no specific evidences. Also since car's multimedia is usually still booting at the time, it takes Android Auto several seconds to start, and I guess some random delays and/or transient errors might happen during that period, that I guess may be not handled properly by Firefox, making it leak some critical resources.

Sometimes (extremely rare) I experience similar video hangs just when switching between YouTube videos without any connectivity changes, but that may be some different issue.

Been asked to report this here.

While not being used (phone off and charging at night) Firefox used up around 6GB of data and I have no idea why.

There were three tabs open at the time, two had been open for several days without issue, I think this was the other one.

I noticed this when staying somewhere with a flaky WiFi connection, as I got a warning about mobile data use, so it's entirely possible it isn't the first time.

Is anybody could tell me how to switch off or block FireFox download manager on android? I try to understand what is the reason to introduce this solution, but I can't. Android has download manager which sending notifications after every download, so why I am forced to clear that notifications twice - once in android and second time in FireFox? Is anybody could explain me that? Because I'm so stupid to understand this. I don't want to manage my downloads from FireFox and I want to remove it or switch-off. So please somebody help me

While on a webpage, changing to a different app on mobile sometimes causes the whole browser to bug, blanking out the page and refusing to load. Sometimes when this happens, waiting a while will allow the page to load, but often i have to clear cache for it to work.
