Firefox for Android Community Forum

Firefox "DECIDED" to translate my pages into Spanish. And it won't stop. No simple way to select IF, and WHEN, the user wants translation. Without a simple user controlled solution, the user CAN DELETE FIREFOX.

Why? Because I once went to the Costco site in Merida, Mexico to purchase a gift ????

Is this another nail in the Firefox coffin....upgrades that remove useful tools.....endless "tech" options poorly explained for the non tech head user....language changes not requested by the user, triggered in a highly thoughtless and foolish way that cannot be easily removed? Perhaps some Mozilla tech staff are secretly "employed" to promote other browser???

When I use the browser to open an app and After I enter that app, I need data from another app so I touch the icon at the bottom of the screen that shows me a list of apps, I select an app from that list, open it and get the data from it via a copy, I the go back to the app in Firefox and it takes me back to a different prior screen that requires me to reenter login in info or back to the screen before I exited to get the data i needed. this does not happen in android 15 etc on all my other devices. How do I stop it? Have I used/changed a setting? Bruce Arbuckle [edited email]

I use Firefox browser on Treasury Direct website to calculate, update, and save the US paper bond values. It was working in October until converting to Windows 11. I am using Firefox version 147.0.1 It has not worked since then. Treasury Direct states that Firefox browser should be used to perform this function. Why isn't it working.

Firefox for Android intermittently gets stuck in landscape orientation after the app has been in the background and is resumed. This does not happen every time, but occurs frequently enough to be noticeable during normal daily use. Once stuck, the orientation does not recover automatically. Note:

Happens only after switching to another app and returning later Does not happen on fresh app launch System auto-rotate continues to work in other apps Sensors appear to work correctly

Recovery The only reliable way to recover is: Force closing Firefox from Recents Reopening the app

Device: Samsung Galaxy S25 OS: Android 16 One UI: 8 Firefox version : latest as on playstore Navigation: Gesture navigation Auto-rotate enabled system-wide

Ever since the recent UI revamp, search does not show suggestions. I confirmed they are enabled in settings. I tried restarting my phone, using other search providers (Google and duck duck go), and stacking trending results, all to no avail.

Dear Firefox dev team,

I work with web based Redmine tool with has multiple date fields in the issue tracker. Since last FF update the date picker does not let me to "clear" the date field contents.

The date picker and field operation is degrading in FF. A time ago you removed the "X" next to date fields which were super easy to use to clear the fields. So I learned to click, open the date picker and click the "clear" there. Now the clear function is gone too. How is it meant to be used now?

For comparison, here is the google chrome and how looks there with date fields (Vymazat = Clear)

Thank you. Filip

For months I've been trying to sync my FF bookmarks between my android phone and my pc and vice-versa. And with no avail. I've looked at so many, many answers and upon trying them with no avail but, frustration. Surely, an extension for droid FF could be developed to freely sync bookmarks between a droid and a pc and from pc to droid.

I have read replies to this problem of "no ready to scan button to tap" but find no answer. I'm signed in to the App - there is no "ready to scan " button  ??? Please provide a solution.

When you leave the app, the page often reloads. This does not occur in Chromium-based browsers (such as Chrome or Brave). And compared to Chromium-based browsers, it's slower and uses more memory, making it difficult to use.

I'm trying to access a site, I cant use my Google account because I get an error 404 so I need Firefox to not be connected to my Google, I don't know how to change it.

Hi developers, I'm running Firefox on an Android tablet and ran into an issue. When I enable the desktop version of the browser, accessing websites (like searching on Baidu) fails to load the desktop version. I compared Edge browser with Firefox and found through website UserAgent detection that when Edge runs desktop websites, it switches UserAgent to Linux, while Firefox maintains Android UserAgent for desktop sites. This causes some websites to ignore network requests and load mobile versions. To resolve this, we need to disable and re-enable desktop website access first, which may allow the site to respond to desktop requests.

Can I adjust the settings to switch to the desktop version of the website? I don't want to switch to another browser.

When I try to upload a file from my mobile device, the file doesn't appear. Uploads from Google Drive are displayed, but I can't select the file. I was able to upload images to this page. What could be the reason?

My Firefox browser on Android is very slow. YouTube videos buffer and lag. Pages take a long time to load. Sometimes Firefox freezes or crashes. Please help me fix performance and video playback issues. My phone has limited RAM and storage

I'm having an issue were any video on firefox i watch automatically pauses. sometimes it takes a few seconds, sometimes instantly.

I've tried restarting firefox and my chromebook, deleting cookies & cache and reinstalling firefox. but nothing helped. It seemed fine for a bit after restarting my chromebook but than it started happening again. Turning off adblock just causes it to pause the ads.

If anyone has an idea of what to do that would be great!
