Firefox for Android Community Forum

Silly design/UX choice: There is an option to add a 'private browsing' home screen app icon shortcut. The problem with it: if you go into private mode and close the app after, the app always starts in private mode until you manually change it (it's 1 extra tap but annoying, there should be a setting to keep state or set a default to normal browsing... (Or either option)) As a software designer, simple things like this really get on my nerves...

Hello, Please help because I wonder why does the firefox pdf not allow to be edited , is there something I did do wrongly with my settings , please help ? ? Thank you.

Whenever I do a search, the default setting for Desktop is set to On. This makes the results too small for me to read. This requires me to change the Desktop setting to Off. How do I change the Desktop default setting to Off?

I just activated the built-in VPN for the Firefox browser on Android. How do I change the location? ie. I'm in Australia but want the internet to think I'm in the UK...

I am in Bogota Colombia visiting my family and want to book a flight Bogota to Santa Marta but Mozilla doesn't allow me to book in colombian pesos but in American doblarse as if I was the US at the moment.

It is not a problem, but I would like to know why did my Firefox app (phone) change its logo and name to "Firefox Preview". Was it me that accidentally activated it?

Thanks!

Hello!

I have the "Block AI Features" setting enabled, but I'm still getting the "Ask Gemini" option in the long-hold context menu for Firefox Mobile on Android.

Is there any way to remove this option? It's cluttering the context menu and I dont want to misclick it. Or otherwise, is this a known and tracked issue?

Sorry about the incorrect location with my last question. Unfortunately the VPN has just disappeared. I have no idea and done nothing to the settings. If anyone could please help, it'll be greatly appreciated. *Bows*

Hi, I can't change the location from recommended in the Android built in VPN. When I press on location or recommended nothing happens. Any help appreciated

Sorry to keep reposting but it keeps getting put in the desktop forum even through I select the Android forum!

I really don't like the "swipe right to go back" function on the mobile browser: I always trigger it by mistake and reload a previous page when I don't intend to. It's especially bad when reading webcomics, as I have to zoom in and move aroud a lot on the page, and if I hit the left edge a bit too fast I get sent to the previous web page.

I dug around a bit in the settings but couldn't find the option to disable this function, so if you could add it (or explain where to find it if it's already there) I'd be most grateful.

P.S. Please don't ever add AI slop to Firefox, I beg of you

Please consider looking into this as it's really annoying, it had me consider using another browser just for this issue, I ended up considering opera for example which has a much better YouTube experience on mobile, which leads me to think this is a browser issue not YouTube issue. We love Firefox, please consider fixing this. Thank you.
