Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hi - Is it possible to backup and/or transfer pinned shortcuts (that show up when you open a new tab) from one android device to another? Is it possible to sync changes to pins? Last, is it possible to increase the amount of space for pinned sites? Thanks in advance for the help!

When reading Wikipedia pages such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_model_(set_theory), symbols like "∈" are rendered in a font that looks ugly. I thought this was a problem with my Xiaomi phone, but I just found out that my system browser renders the page correctly.

I want to upload screenshots but the page seems to be stuck with the prompt "Uploading "1000003213.jpg"...", so I am going to submit this first and try to add the screenshots later.

I'm unhappy with the new version of the app, 143.0, which my app was just updated to. Specifically, the appearance of the tab homepage. The empty space previously occupied by the search bar at the top of the screen, and the lack of features such as recently opened tabs, or the "Jump Back In" box, both of which have been removed in favour of irrelevant stories. The ability to turn back on features like that would be greatly appreciated.

In addition, updating seems to have completely cleared out my app's history, now only showing me my synced history from other devices.

Hello there,

I am new to Firefox. I recently installed it on Android with the latest version (I believe it is 143) and while playing with the settings, I found the "Private Lock Tabs" feature. However, even after acknowledging it with my fingerprint, I can switch back and forth to normal browsing without it ever requesting my fingerprint again, and my private tabs remain visible and are never hidden. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the app and turning on/off the feature but it doesn't seem to work. Any help is appreciated!

commenting on Facebook results in a scroll down with every letter typed (default gboard) , which makes it almost impossible to comment, it becomes frustrating at times and i can only comment on posta which have a few comments because the scrolling down is blocked by the lower end of page

Hello, I think I must be getting confused because when I clock on a link, my Pixel automatically opens in Chrome, which is not my default browser (Firefox is). How do I tell my phone to open links etc. in Firefox instead of defaulting to Chrome, even though I already have Firefox set as my default browser?

Thanks! Nancy Yuen

hi. how can i copy or cut the URL from the address bar?? There is no pop-up, drop down ? All other browsers can do this.

and also the whole text in the bar seems not to be selected.

I foolishly upgraded to the latest Android mobile version. I like my bookmarks kept in the order I set them. Firefox, with the new version has decided they should be alphabetical once again. I have turned off this annoying behaviour in previous versions by disabling Compose Bookmarks in the secret settings. This option is no longer visible. How do I get my bookmarks back in the order want and stop firedox from screwing them up again?

What is this obsession the development team have with screwing up user bookmark organisation? This keeps coming back like a bad penny.

Dear Sir/Madam, Recently I have been having issues accessing a particular website named asus.com for reasons I am unable to discern I keep receiving an error message each time I attempt to access the site. I keep receiving an error message indicating that the site cannot be reached. It should be noted that I do not have any issues with any other websites. Your assistance in resolving this extremely annoying issue will be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Volney Boswell

Firefox keep refreshing the webpage on my Poco M6 plus device whenever I minimize the app for even a second. I've received many android updates but this keep happening. I believe it is something has to be with HyperOS.

I was told to post this here after leaving a review on the Play Store. The sensitivity of pull down to refresh is too sensitive. When I go to search for something on a website and I try to click the suggested search, it refreshes the page almost every time. eBay and IMDb are the most problematic pages, but it happens on other sites as well. Also, some times just regular scrolling down to read triggers a refresh no matter how soft and slow I try to do it. And that's actually going the opposite direction because I'm moving up to scroll down and it still triggers it. I like having pull down to refresh, it's just too sensitive. I'm using a Samsung S25 and everything (app and system software etc) is fully updated if that info is needed.
