Android 14, One UI 6.0, Samsung S22+

Firefox is using a large amount of battery while idle. You can see my app runs open a lot of the day, but not in use much. It has drained 20 percent of one days battery, and I am watching YouTube videos on another app (Grayjay btw check it out!) and it has used far less battery. If I set Firefox into a sleeping state, the app still drains a lot of battery. When in deep sleep,it stops draining as much power, but then Android keeps auto pushing their own browser to be my primary browser. I'm not sure what to do in this case, as it's too much of a hassle to have links not auto open in Firefox when in deep sleep. This excessive battery drain doesn't make sense, and I was wondering if there was any fix for this. Thanks for taking the time.

The browser itself works in 120 Hz, but if you open any page, the phone switches to 60 hz. However, if you open, for example, the keyboard, 120 Hz is enabled again. This makes using Firefox uncomfortable. I have attached screenshots that show my problem.

Hi,

I've been using firefox for 20 years and never experienced problems with webpage display until I started using it on my new phone samsung s23 ultra.

More often some webpages will not size correctly with my screen and is cut off so I have to switch to chrome.

For example, only 80% of this webpage is displayed. https://www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/news/2024/04/pfas-forever-chemicals-above-drinking-water-guidelines-in-global-source-water

Is this a bug?

Thanks.

Hello,

I'm not able to upload files to certain websites using Firefox on Android.

When selecting a file for the phone's file manager, the file upload simply not starting.

However, Firefox on iOS doesn't have that issue.

Firefox version used is the latest one and it is the one from Google Play.

Tried another browser and it works great.

I'm unsure if this is a Firefox Mobile issue (since the site's login pop-up works just fine on my laptop that I also use FF on), or an issue with the website itself, but I've already emailed the site about it and got no response yet. So, figured I'd try here. Also, I just tried re-enabling Chrome to truly see if this is browser or app related and sadly this works on Chrome's Mobile but not FF's.

On the mobile and desktop version of this site: thingstogetme.com

There's an option to login with Facebook or Apple ID. The Apple ID pop-up works fine, but the Facebook one does not. Again, this is only an issue on Mobile. The Facebook option will turn a darker blue once you tap on it, indicating it's been selected, but nothing will happen. If you tap the page, it'll go back to its regular, un-selected blue.

I've turned off uBlock Origin, switched between mobile and desktop pages, refreshed, nothing works for this problem. Thus this essentially soft-locks me out of this site unless I use my laptop.

Fonts on Google show outlines where they're not supposed to. This is happening as shown in the attached picture in the word 'Firefox' and the word 'Change'.

Only extensions I am using are Dark Reader and uBlock Origin, both of which I uninstall completely to test without any difference.

Problem persists in both dark and light mode. And is not present in Google Chrome ot other applications.

This is on Android 14, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, One UI 6.1. Firefox 132.0 (Build #2016051567).

Hey 👋🏼

I have an issue with the Facebook 'recent post' feed: Only two posts were displayed in the 'recent post' feed and then a spinning loading symbol is at the bottom - then nothing else is loading on my OnePlus 12 and Google Pixel 6, Firefox version 126.0.

In Microsoft Edge it is working, all posts are loaded correctly, so it seems to be a browser issue.

Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a solution?

It's the same problem as here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1420806
