Recently, when trying to redirect to a random scp on the scp wiki, a pop-up has strated to appear asking "Allow redirection to this site?". It's annoying and started happening like two days ago. Also clicking allow doesn't even redirect you. How do I turn this off?

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.

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?

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.

Hello!

Steps to reproduce: 1. Open new tab 2. Start entering something into the search bar

Expected behavior: suggestions from the current search engine are displayed Actual result: only Firefox suggestions are displayed

Note: after tapping SE selection button and selecting a search engine (including the current one), the suggestions appear as expected

147.0.1 (Build #2016138271), 7c42d7af4adc37371e296ff7cb1033ce4f39af12 GV: 147.0.1-20260116091309 AS: 147.0 OS: Android 15

Pressing back button when browsing returns to earlier previous search instead of current search. Have tried to

https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1jhcozq/odd_issue_when_returning_to_google_search_results/

Have tried:

chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml

Then search for: browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers

Mine was set to -1, I changed it to 0

But did not fix issue

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.

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 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.

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

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.
