I'm using Firefox on Android and I'm having trouble clearing cookies in the following situations:

- When browsing in private mode, after closing all my private tabs and closing Firefox - When browsing in private mode and turning on 'Delete Browsing Data on quit', and quitting by pressing the quit button - When browsing in private mode and manually clearing cookies with 'Delete Browsing Data's

I know cookies haven't been cleared because I'm still logged in to websites in private mode after performing the above actions and restarting Firefox. I need to close and restart Firefox multiple times before cookies are actually cleared.

I have not tried this in regular (non-private) mode.

Could I get help with clearing cookies consistently?

In an android tablet can Firefox show the tabs on top of the browser view? As it is now I have to jump to a weird "tab screen" to see the other tabs. Feels like it's not really a tab but more like a separate window. Very kludgy way to go from one "tab" to another. This is a huge step back from Chrome.

How to specify the character type when I want to use auto-generated password by Firefox

When changing the login password in Firefox, I can select the "Use strong password" option, but the password automatically generated by Firefox will use characters that cannot be used as password (such as symbols), and the system will not accept the "new" password generated by Firefox, so the Firefox's automatic password generation will be wasted. There are very few sites that embed allowed character types as a password on password changing page, so is it possible to manually specify the character type or re-edit the generated password?

I run Fx140.0.4 on my Samsung Galaxy S24, and I have two issues:

  1. When opening a map on posten.no (Norwegian postal service), the map display shows up as diagonally mirrored top left to bottom right, with the left/lower part shown correct and the right part being a perfect mirrored image along the diagonal. The map is driven by ESRI
  1. When using https://globe.adsbexchange.com/, some aircraft symbols are distorted, see attached screenshot

Is this a known behaviour to Firefox for Android? In Google Chrome I don't see these flaws.

hi I would like to download and install firefox for android which if I understand correctly is named fenix, without going to an app store. I don't see a direct link on the main pages on the website. I noticed at https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/ it looks like it might be possible to get the apk. My concern would be does this violate any terms or licenses? Is this 100 percent ok to do? Also does the firefox owners have anything written answering this? There are websites that imply sideloading firefox might be considered using without permission and I definitely don't want that.
