Hello,
I'm fairly new to using a smart phone; I've had one for a little over a year. Just like on my laptop, I enjoy being able to use Firefox Mobile and appreciate setting up shortcuts to my Android Home Screen. I haven't set one for some time now and am running into problems doing that now. I've discovered that when I now try to set one, it only goes to my Firefox Home Screen, not my Android home screen. What's up with that?
Also, on my Firefox home screen, my Shortcut list not only has my Android Home Screen shortcuts but also many Bookmarks that I don't necessarily want shortcuts to. How do I clean up this list?
While I'm at it, what are Collections?
Thanks, Andre'a

Yes I'm aware there's an option to hide toolbar when scrolling, however on website like Google maps or FlightRadar, firefox doesn't recognize scrolling and toolbar stay visible, which take up a lot of screen real estate when in landscape mode. Please add option to show webpage in full screen or hide toolbar by default.
I saw similar question has been asked but it was a year ago and archived with no answer.

The android version of firefox should follow the "system" for its auto dark mode instead of following the "battery saver". Just like chrome and other chromium browsers do.
The major advantage this gives is that it allows even older android version users to experience auto dark mode, since there are ways for them to initiate system wide dark mode through 3rd party apps (like this one for example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=systems.maju.darkmode&hl=en&gl=US) But since Firefox follows battery saver, this never works on android version lower than 10.
Therefore, I'd like to request the developers to implement the uato dark mode in firefox android to follow the system instead of the battery saver status.
Is there any way to customize the Firefox widget? I use a Samsung S21 plus. Thank you

I have set my Galaxy S22 to use dark mode in the evening. Firefox doesn't seem to realize that it has changed to dark mode. Right now I can choose follow device theme and it goes to light mode, even while the phone is in dark mode. Choosing dark mode makes it dark. Choosing follow device theme makes it light again.
I tried to toggle dark mode off and on in my phone while in the Firefox settings menu was open and now Firefox shows dark theme while follow device theme is selected. I think the same happened yesterday as well.
Maybe Firefox has trouble registering that the phone switches theme on a schedule.

I was wondering if I could request that the Android firefox search widget could be customised to be transparent?
Otherwise, great job with the app!

I originally was able to create the home page shortcut to Piped with Chrome, but the shortcut launched Chrome, even though Firefox is my default browser?
Piped [https://piped.kavin.rocks/https://pip.../|Piped]
So I deleted the shortcut. Now, Chrome no longer even offers me the option to "Add to Home Screen" from the Piped page, but it still does for other sites. Within Chrome, It now offers me the option to open the page in Firefox, even if I make Chrome the default browser.
How can I get a shortcut to Piped on my home page that will open in Firefox?

Hello Mozilla,
I've seen this posted before, but no answers. I have Android 11, and recently, when I do a reboot, or power down the device entirely and power it back up, all the Installed Web Sites and "Add to my Home Screen" icons disappear.
I do have Firefox to remove all history upon exit, but that history should not include installed bookmarks and "Add to my Home Screen" options.
Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround other than switching off this setting? Is there a logged feature or bug request to handle this properly?
Thanks,
Larry
I just want the UI in Firefox itself to be dark, without the browser assuming I want it to make websites switch themes. How do I get it to behave?
Are there any themes for android? I can't get the themes in add one to install on my tablet
