Firefox for Android Community Forum

One of the sites I like to visit just started doing pop-up ads. I thought I had them blocked. How do I block pop-ups? I cannot seem to find in the in the settings?

I'm having trouble breaking down the specific behavior of fingerprinting protection for the 3 settings levels.

According to the Windows release notes dated 1 October 2023, "Additionally, you can choose whether to block Suspected Fingerprinters in all windows or just in private windows", but also, "To disable Fingerprinting Protection and return to the default settings, simply select "Standard" or "Strict"

In my reading, these two statements conflict. I'm under the impression that "known fingerprinter" blocking is always active, even on standard. Does enabling "Strict" enhanced protection also enable "suspected fingerprinter" blocking, and if so, is it active on all windows or only in private browsing? Does that mean we need to use the "Custom" setting to enable suspected fingerprinting blocking in all windows?

My question is the same for Firefox for Android 131.0, except in the mobile app's case, the release notes contain even less detail - so I could also be off-base there. TBH I am probably missing something obvious, so if anybody can even point me in the right direction I'd be grateful!

Thanks for any insight anybody can provide!

There seems to be no way to delete more than one saved password. In the Android most recent version of Firefox, and also in the Firefox Beta for Android period I've tried to sign on to my Firefox account my mozilla account and there's no way to delete the passwords there either period I would like to delete all passwords, and I have thousands that I've saved Uber the past few years, so I have to have an easier way to delete all of these other than sitting here for hours, clicking delete 3 times To remove the passwords from the browser things I have done, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the application, I have deleted the app data and cash and then reinstall the application on all of my other devices, I have also turned off the saving of passwords and yet these passwords remain could you please? Give me. A good response so that I can get my personal passwords off of my phone period that's what I would really like! Thank you, Jacob.

I clicked the email I wished to read on my 11 year old Samsung ph and off we went to Firefox - BUT I got a face full of Facebook, with no sign of Firefox which appeared to have been pushed off the cliff. I don't have an FB app on my ph I have never used FB on any of my devices - I am much too old and busy with many more important things.

took me a while to find this page - thanks to my incurable bone marrow cancer I sometimes feel like I am and demented ancient. [thankfully most of the time I am coherent and sort of normal -but my whole life was upended when I was diagnosed a few years ago. the number of things this disease can do to one are quite astounding so I'm always looking for news surrounding Multiple Myeloma, as it is called.]

can I prevent that from happening? and, if yes, of course, how can I do that? thanks for reading all this

uhoh, I just realised I haven't updated FF on my ph - even tho I do it on PC when I see a message, or just check if one is lurking ...

could that be the reason for FB sticking their bib where it's not welcome? k

Hi, does the Version 128 Android also has the ad web tracking thing which came with opt-out option in the desktop version? I do not see any info about it, and in data privacy etc section in the mobile browser is no option. As config no longer is possible (thanks) I also can't check it.

Thanks

Both 'Enhanced Tracking Protection' and 'Site permissions' show exceptions and an explanation of what they are (for 'Enhanced Tracking Protection' anyway) but seem to have no way to add an exception.

How are exceptions added 'Enhanced Tracking Protection' and 'Site permissions' in Fennec?

Thanks
