Hi there, I am facing a problem in some website while using Firefox Beta. When I allow access to my camera and microphone, then granting permission dialog box is shown again and again no matter how much I click in "Continue ".

In other browsers there is an option to always allow the full access to the microphone and camera so in those cases the problem won't happen. Can we adjust Firefox Beta so that it can allow a website to always access microphone and webcam without asking? Thank you in advance

Customize/disable search mode when opening home page?

I think the home page changed with the recent Firefox 137.0 update on my Android phone. It feels like something that may have changed intentionally, but it disrupts my existing usage. I would hope there is at least a configuration option to revert it, but I cannot find one.

I used to be able to gesture "back" out of a tab into my home page where I would see the search/location bar, tab controls, and hamburger menu at the bottom of the screen. (See second attached screenshot for this normal screen I'm talking about.) I would very often either use the tabs button to choose a different existing tab or the hamburger menu to get into the full Bookmarks list.

Lately, the back gesture drops me into a screen where input to the search/location bar is already activated, so the keyboard is open and the tabs + menu controls are replaced with the QR code button. (See first attached screenshot.) My usage of Firefox on a phone is very different than on a laptop with a keyboard. On a phone, I rarely want to write search terms, so this automatic input mode is a frustrating trap.

I have to gesture "back" again to get from this screen to the original screen, but with the keyboard open, I have to do the gesture in the upper half of of the screen, which is awkward with one-handed operation. Otherwise, the gesture is likely to trigger keyboard input instead.

Ideally, I'd like to skip this activated search screen and have the tabs + menu remain the bottom of the screen with the keyboard closed. (As in second attached screenshot.)

But, I never use that QR code button either. I also see it as a misfeature to have it replace the tabs and menu buttons when input is activated. I feel like the QR scanner should be hidden under the menu or show up as a third button, making the location bar a little narrower without moving the existing buttons.

If the tabs and menu buttons remained, at least I could try to use them directly without having to do the extra back gesture. But, the open keyboard input is still awkward, since it shoves the buttons halfway up the screen and muscle memory doesn't work for the target.

Every time I open Firefox, since recent update, the keyboard opens on the lower portion of the screen, below my Shortcuts. Additionally, it places a camera icon over the 3 dots (...) so that I can't access my Bookmarks. This is very annoying, because I have to remove the keyboard before I can proceed. How can I permanently prevent the keyboard from intruding on my Home Screen on Android.

Since Android 12, many apps can take "scrolling screenshots" that capture more than just the currently-visible part of the screen, with an aptly labeled "capture more" button. I noticed that when screenshotting a webpage in Firefox Android, I don't have the option to do this. When screenshotting the same webpage in a Chromium browser, I do. (See screenshots: 1st is Firefox, 2nd is Chrome)

Is this a bug, or a known FF limitation? Is it on the devs' roadmap?

Hey new developement team you might as well remove and redo the entire support section. Tons of features, places we are pointed to-go to, options and whatever else were completely removed or moved to entirely different areas before the precovid developers were able to change it themselves upon being let go. Some spots the support points to more advanced features that the browser itself doesn't actually have anymore, because regressing 2015-1998 features somehow saves money? Removing features and functions that are up to 20+ yrs old seems like more work than just leaving them but what do I know... But the information on here is almost 5 yrs old now and desperately needs a complete rehaul. I don't know how many of ya they brought back but might want to play some catch up on one of the most important sections. I see tons of posts everywhere of people giving up and going to Brave or whatever instead because of this alone. Just as with a book, movie, whatever the beginning just as important as the end when it comes to capturing attention and sales..... Regards from every currently overly frustrated user that's also sick of/dealing with Windows (esp Win11) and Googles nonstop bombardment of bs.
