Firefox for Android Community Forum

My Firefox for Android has gone nuts. Everything shows in tiny fonts and all formatting has been lost. By that I mean that entire web pages are now showing where previously only pertinent sections were showing.

I've attached a screen shot of my Yahoo email page. Previously only the inbox showed with 20 emails to a page. Now the whole page shows. I have no idea what changed, or what I inadvertently changed, to get this result.

Bonjour, J'avais depuis de nombreuses années installé le navigateur Firefox sur mon smartphone. J'avais, parallèlement, activé la synchronisation sur les divers appareils sur lesquels Firefox était installé. La recherche des mots de passe dans mon smartphone (système d'exploitation Androïd) s'exécutait sans problème, que ce soit en utilisant l'empreinte ou le schéma d'authentification. Depuis 1 mois, sans raisons apparentes, je n'ai plus accès au module de mots de passe. L'authentification ne permet pas l'ouverture de la section pour faire apparaitre la liste des mots de passe, et l'empreinte qui le permettait après de multiples tentatives, pendant une certaine période, est désormais sans effet. Pourriez vous me communiquer quelles pourraient être les causes de ce phénomène et comment réparer ce dysfonctionnement. J'ai déjà essayé de désinstaller et réinstaller l'application Firefox sans résultats. Je vous remercie du concours que vous voudrez bien m'apporter. Cordialement.

After the last update the address bar is divided into two parts. One below and the other above. How can I change the settings that I get only a address bar above with two parts. Attached the screen

Settins not available after linking Google to Firefox. Upper right drop down does not list settings as "Help" searches recommend. Make this readily available at all times. This must be a google feature. It's annoying and arrogant. Another reason google is so appreciated, ha-ha?

Hello, My Firefox on Android (latest version) is missing the "always" setting in "open links in native apps". It is also clear to me that this version doesn't even ask me to open links in native apps (that is the current setting). I would like to understand if this is a bug or something that has changed in one of the releases and the help pages aren't yet updated. Thanks

I'm sorry for the question, usually this is something easy to fix on a PC or phone, but I'm on my tablet (Samsung, android) and somehow none of the settings available here, offer a solution in lowering the font size on my screen. I've looked at YouTube videos, gone into reddit and even asked Google, yet all the answers are somewhat the same but cannot be found while I'm on this tablet. I need help please!!! 😫

Suddenly when using Google on my tablet the search results have become too small to read I see no way of adjusting this apart. from zooming with my fingers. I have played with accessiblity settings and reinstalled without success. Other sites seem OK and Chrome works well too. I see from the various support forums that this has happened regularly in the past but no one comes up with a good answer. I don't want to dump Firefox.

I can't see the download button on my Firefox settings. Where is the download button on Firefox? How can I download a picture or anything else into my phone using the Firefox browser?

Thanks

So the desktop setting keeps being enabled when I'm searching something it's enabled and I can unable it but what I'm in an site it cannot be disabled in any kind of sight that I tried

Now it's completely impossible to open PDFs outside Firefox, as I could do until the last couple of beta versions.

This trend is going on since a few years ago, from bad to worst. The whole design of the PDFs download process is bad. PDFs should be treated by FF as any other file: download and open with the system default PDF viewer. Imposing Firefox's internal PDF viewer as mandatory for downloaded PDFs is nonsense.

You guys ever going to get around to improving how to interact with bookmarks? When I have downtime during the day and I'd like to move my bookmarks around I can't! This has been an issue for a long time and I know others have asked. This is the one huge reason why I feel forced to use other browsers on my phone when not at home! Please get on this so I can just say on one browser for phone and home.

I have Release, Beta (and Nightly) on this 10" Samsung tablet running Android 13. For some months I've been expecting the new tab bar (tabs accross the top, like on desktop, and a + on the left) to arrive in the Release version I normally use. I assumed it was being held back.

Today I saw it in Beta 133. I updated Release so that's now: 133.0 (Build #2016057495), hg-8141aab3ba85+ GV: 133.0-20241121140525 AS: 133.0

I now see default desktop view (good idea) - but no tab bar. I've searched settings unsuccessfully.

Why not? Is it behind a pref which I can't change? What's the plan?

Hello, "desktop view" is very useful, and I use it for LinkedIn because the "mobile mode" is shitty (I guess to make/force people to install the proprietary and closed source LinkedIn app).

I found that "desktop view" is stopping working while activated, when you always keep a tab opened for days... I have to close the tab and open a new one to make "desktop view" working again.

I found too that "open in a new tab" action is not inheriting the view mode of the parent tab and that an issue when browsing the same website.

Could it be possible to have "desktop view" enable by default based on visited website?

Running latest version of android on Samsung S23 Ultra Firefox is 13.0.2 build # 2016055415.

I have installed adguard on my phone and wish to import its security certificate but I can not access the Privacy and Security tab to do so.

These tabs in settings are all Blue and do not respond to tapping General, Privacy and Security, Advanced, About All other tabs work correctly.

Also have a Samsung tablet which exhibits identical symptoms

Have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and cleared system cache. I have uninstalled Adguard.

Also I can not figure out how to enter troubleshooting mode on android

I just installed Android V 8.1 and the anti-spam function isn't working. Spam mail is not being automatically filtered as it is supposed to do, and does on the desktop version. In addition the junk/spam mail settings that are supposed to be in the Accounts area are not there and the Swipe to Spam function also doesn't work nor does the "long press" to get to the spam marking option.

Any estimate as to when this functionality will be brought online?
