Is there a way to shorten the toast message for closing a tab? I believe it's longer than 5 seconds (I slow counted to 7), which seems excessive.

My (personal, sure) reason for asking is that my RSS reader's "next" button is immediately beneath the toast, so if I've opened and closed an article I have to wait 5 seconds to get to the next.

My manual workaround has been to just leave tabs open and close them en masse, but that's a bit risky, given other tabs I'd like to keep open.

The message in referencing is at the bottom of the screenshot I've attached.

It would be ideal if I could turn them off entirely: I know that I closed a tab, after all?

Thanks at least for listening!

As is well known, Firefox China( https://www.firefox.com.cn , which is now inaccessible and can be viewed on the history page in the Internet Archive.) The service was stopped a few days ago, which led to the removal of Firefox for Android from all app markets in Chinese Mainland, which means that users in Chinese Mainland will not be able to download Firefox for Android. After all, users in Chinese Mainland cannot access Google App Store. May I ask if there is any solution? Of course, I would prefer the Firefox team to restore the listing of major Chinese app stores.

简体中文标题:中国大陆用户如何下载Firefox for Android?

众所周知,Firefox中国(https://www.firefox.com.cn,现已不可访问,可在互联网档案馆查看历史页面)在前些时间停止了服务,导致所有中国大陆的应用市场都下架了Firefox for Android,这意味着中国大陆用户将无法下载Firefox for Android,毕竟中国大陆用户并不能访问谷歌应用商店。请问有什么解决办法吗?当然,我更希望Firefox团队可以恢复上架各大中国应用商店。

Hello,

I have an issue in the latest version of the android app. When I inputting any keyword into the url bar and hitting enter, instead of using my search engine to perform the search like in previous versions, the browser redirects to unrelated websites from my browsing history that vaguely share some characters with what I had entered and that did not show up in the suggestions. This makes the search bar unusable.

I've recently upgraded from an a34 to an a56, both phones running the same build of Firefox, both signed into my account however the old phone can see the tabs of my laptop and the new phone, the new phone can't see anything. I'd like to be able to port the tabs over ideally.

Also of note is the tab view is totally different between the two phones in layout too.

I'm at a loss as to how I can painlessly move over the tabs.

Uncool page reloading

I wish there was a setting to not have the page refresh every time you go into another app and then come back into this one, it's impossible to multitask and extremely frustrating. It seems to happen on most pages I visit, even YouTube. Especially on pages with forms. It makes moving around on your phone to get info for forms impossible, and it's also just frustrating when you go to answer a text, come back and your progress on a video or form or shopping search has reset and started over, taking you back to the top. Is that sort of thing dependent on the website, or the browser?

Hi, I have problems when using Firefox Android with my Samsung 24 Pro. This doesn't happen with my other phone, that is a One Plus, nor in Chrome browser.

1) I start using Firefox 2) I search something with the bar (google engine) 3) I press the bar to change my search 4) Press to remove a character with the delete

If I searched with more than one word word, it deletes the space in between, eg. "hello how are you" transforms into "hello how areyou". Spected behaviour "hello how are yo". If its only one word a random letter is deleted. Sometimes it deletes a complete word.

If, for example, instead of pressing delete, I touch again the bar in step 4) no bug ocurrs.

Hope someone can help me Best Regards Andrés
