Firefox for Android Community Forum

Good morning and/or evening!

Within the last year, I upgraded my phone from iOS to Android, and decided to switch browsers from Safari to FireFox while I was at it. The mobile version of FireFox has served me very well so far, especially the collections feature!

I also like to use private tabs to save content I may not want to view until later. Unfortunately, due to FireFox automatically closing private tabs, I often lose my place and reading lists.

The option to Keep Private Tabs is available on the iOS version of Firefox, as shown on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatically-close-private-tabs-when-leaving-priv. Would it be possible to make this an option for Android users as well?

Thank you for your time and help!

Moving a bookmark on Firefox on mobile device when opening the bookmark edit if you want to move a bookmark for example for Mobile bookmarks to Desktop bookmarks:

In my case I first click edit, click on the location and edit > Folder and I am showed unlike when I browse my bookmarks where folders are closed, all folders in hierarchy are opened which make for an endless scrolling for minutes trying to find the folder I want to move my bookmark to, as a poweruser who has thousands of folders and bookmarks.

There are ofher browsers where this is reversed and easier to move a bookmark because all folders are closed. Is this a feature that can be added to Firefox?

Also the setting saying you can display bookmarks on home screen, actually its a scrolling banner with most recently saved bookmarks. I miss the old classic Firefox where you could set your new tab and home page as your bookmarks list making it super easy and quick to get everything you need right in front of you without needing extra steps to enter your bookmark lists.

If this is not the right forum please direct me where I can forward this feature request

I can't figure out how to open an url like "http://fritz.box" or "192.168.178.10.1". Either Firefox starts a search or auto completes the address to "https://fritz.box". This address can not be resolved locally. If anyone happens to read this and could help me please, I just want to open the configuration page of my router. And I can't do it with Firefox for Android - so it seems. Thank you for your time!

I just changed phones and providers. The provider transferred all data to the new phone, but Firefox and Firefox Focus did not transfer, and had to be reinstalled. I stored my passwords on Firefox and can't access them on my new phone. It keeps telling me to log in on my computer, but the only computer that was synced was lost or stlen a year ago while I was hospitalised for major surgery. I reported this to Mozilla at that time. I just need to access my passwords on my new phone. HELP!

My device is Tecno pova 5g (TECNO LH8n) The chrome browser works really well in this phone but Firefox is laggy the pages load slower & sluggish despite of 120hz display it only support 60hz.

The browsing experience is also laggy the navigation in twitter is so laggy but when i use chrome its fine i hate chrome i have always been loyal to firefox in computer if this is slow in android i will still choose to use it once loyal always loyal.

I am king of my own kingdom willing to invest in firefox wellfare. never remove ublock origin from his position he is one of my greatest knight.

Where did this strange language come from? I synced my laptop to my Android phone and somehow this language started appearing English and another language I can't identify.

This thing is driving me nuts,I started watching a video and it would start over and over,then it's comes up your time is timed out,I need to finish this this weekend, please fix the problem.

My phone was hacked and because I was signed into Firefox, I believe my saved passwords were accessed. I had opened a political text in messenger, nothing to click on, nor would I, closed the app and put down my phone. When I picked up my phone, messenger was opened with a text about to send with a password I've used, but no app name or website. I located which app it belonged to. I ran my virus protection, but phone was fine.

If there was a way to answer security questions, or send me an email or text to verify who I was before I could access saved passwords, that would be great. Could this be added to the web browser?
