I am using Firefox nightly on Android. About two weeks ago I noticed that my toolbar got moved to the bottom after some update, while address bar is still at the top. I tried looking for it in settings but couldn't find anything about toolbar, that's weird since I was able to customize it a few years ago when I installed Firefox for the first time. So I looked it up on the internet and they say that it's in Settings/Customize/Toolbar, but in my browser settings instead of Toolbar there is Address bar settings. Has toolbar's settings been moved somewhere else? It looks like in previous versions it was under Customize section.

Since my addon was unlisten from AMO and I've been told to self-distribute it cause the audience is too small, I created a website that hosts it. Installation works fine on desktop, on mobile it just downloads the file.

Is there any way to distribute this addon for mobile users?

I used .xpi file that I downloaded from AMO page and response has correct content-type headers. I distribute it here if anyone wants to check whats going on https://ifv.banocean.com

Hi, this issue has been present for a long time for me, and with many versions of Firefox Nightly for Android.

I'm always using the latest nightly for browsing Youtube only, with a set of specific settings and addons (since we can't use profiles on Android yet)

My problem is I've configured the Homepage to never show anything but a few URLs I chose to pin, you can see my settings and my homepage in the screenshots attached.

Despite the "Recently visited" setting being disabled, sometimes, but not everytime, the last pages I visited are added to the Homepage, after the pinned sites. I have no idea what triggers it or not, if I'm doing something wrong or if it's a bug.

Thanks for your help !

I'm trying to remove over 500 passwords saved in FF, I removed it on PC and it disappeared from all connected Win clients. But I can't remove it from Android - they are still in FF & Lockwise. Tell me then, why sync works between Win clients but Android client ignores deletion of passwords?

Hi, my firefox appears to be missing its navigation/toolbar. I only have a single bottom bar for the address bar, home, tab and the three dots. I would like to have the back, forward button, bookmarks to be pinned on the toolbar area. I try to use the Secret Setting but it does not have the option to enable toolbar. I have included two screenshots, the orange circle depicting my current situation. I would like to have something similar to the toolbar (Samsung Internet Browser) in the other screenshot with teal circle.

  1. Sometimes I use the browser while the system is in dark mode.
  2. Then I switch system to light mode. FF recognizes it and switches to light mode accordingly.
  3. Then I use it in light mode for a little more.
  4. Then some time passes (maybe a few hours), I don't use FF during that time.
  5. Then, I tap on FF icon, the browser starts, but immediately switches back to dark mode, while the system is still in light mode.
  6. I have to close FF by swiping on it in task switcher, and then tap on the app again.
  7. FF now uses light/dark theme according to system.

Device: Motorola Edge 30 Neo with stock Android 14.

I am using Fennec: 124.1.0 (Build #1241020), 516df33ca9+ GV: 124.0.1-20240326023132 AS: 124.0

Is this Support Forum Dead or what ? It's been almost a Week since I asked a Question. Forget Solution, Atleast, A Reply would have been something.

If stated my issue in Play Store reviews, it says to ask my question in this Support Forum.

Is my question - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1453029 even visible to you all or not ?

I loved everything in Firefox Mobile except for this above stated issue. I had plans to even Donate to Firefox if this issue had been resolved. It's not even a big issue, just apply a fix from Firefox Focus to Firefox Mobile. Is it too much to ask ?

I know your volunteers are Mozilla users just like me, who take the time out of their day to help. But, still, No Reply for a Week ?

Okay. I think doing anything or waiting for replies and helps any further is waste of time. This might be the reason Chrome is still way better.

Goodbye Firefox.

No Thank You.
