Firefox for Android Support Forum

I’m using Firefox browser 112.1.0 (build #2015944787) on Pixel 7 smartphone. Android version 13.

When I click on “see more’’ in comments section of an online post, the post does not expand. But when I click on ‘’reply’’ or ‘’Show more replies’’, the online post expands. See uploaded image. Note that when I use the desktop site version of the Firefox, the problem does not exist.

Is this an issue within Firefox? Could you share your fix? Thank you….

In firefox mobile I have removed ads onn and also turned off enhanced tracking protection then also while searching icons of websites not coming . But while doing samething on desktop site , it is showing icons.

The picture-in-picture function no longer works on my phone when viewing YouTube videos on my Android Firefox app.

In previous versions, I was able to enter full-screen mode while playing a YouTube video, then click the "home" button on my phone, and the video would play in picture-in-picture mode while I scrolled through other apps.

I am fully updated as of today (4/11/2023), I have tried the functionality with no add-ons and with the "Video Background Player" add-on, and I have double-checked to make sure that the "picture-in-picture" permission is checked for the app (it is).

My device specs are attached in the image below.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

When reading the site https://hellasjournal.com after a while Firefox freezes and crashes. It's not a site problem because with Chrome works fine.

I have LGK51 and using google keyboard, also have tried Samsung keyboards. Auto fill is set for Firefox once I used the ' Master password' but had issues, deleted / turned off Mater password but ever since then autofill doesn't work or may work at random. I have already cleared cache/ uninstalled/ re-installed frefox / updated

cleared hidden cache  .... switched phones  - doesn't seem to matter what I try, it just doesnt fix

I am pretty tech savvy but I cant seem to get around it - help. Here's my specs : android version 12 Hardware version -Rev 1.0 Software : K500MM30f

Hi, When any other app in my device uses the browser to open a tab instance within the said app itself, there is no option to add to bookmarks. The only options available are - 1. To move back and forward 2. Reload the page 3. Open in Firefox 4. A toggle for the Desktop site I personally add a lot of such links to my bookmarks for further reading and it would be a huge help if an option of "Add to bookmarks" could be added to the options there. Google Chrome has an implementation of what I'm talking about and you could just look to that for inspiration.

Version: FF Android 101.2.0 (plus other version stuff I can provide if needed), Android 12 Hi there,

I wanted to report an issue I've been experiencing on a popular news site, which seems to have been ongoing for several months now. I'm not sure if anyone else has been having this problem or if it's just me, but I thought it was worth bringing up.

The website in question is . https://alightmotion.net/

My expected behavior when browsing this site is to be able to open links and download files in the background while continuing to browse. However, I've noticed a few issues:

After opening a few tabs, Firefox for Android will hang for almost 30 seconds before doing a deep redraw/repaint of all tabs. It then functions normally until I try to open another background tab from the same website. During the hang, the tab interface continues to redraw, but the pages themselves do not repaint, and no tap events work. When the hang time ends, the pages appear to redraw from scratch, and the context pop-up for the third long-press appears on top of the tab I was looking at. This issue is 100% reproducible for me. Long-press fails when attempting to open the third background tab, but the repaint failure occurs earlier. There seems to be something toxic happening.

Interestingly, when I go back to my Android Home screen after experiencing this issue, there is a deep refresh/repaint, as if the phone has been swapped out or the garbage collector has run.

I have tried clearing all browsing data and using a guest account on my phone, but the issue persists. I don't have any add-ons installed, and neither Chrome nor Firefox Desktop exhibit this behavior. It seems to be specific to Firefox for Android.

Thank you for your help!

Some online video creators are posting new video content that won't play in Firefox 112.2. The video displays with a Play button in the center of the image, but tapping the Play button does nothing. Yet, opening the page containg the video in other browsers (Chrome, Opera for example) the videos play fine. Has there been a recent update to video source codes that Firefox hasn't adopted?

So i signed up in few websites and after completing my work instead of logging out I simply deleted everything history,cookies and all and I've disabled saving password info. But when I again open Firefox I'm still logged in. It doesn't happen in chrome why Firefox kept me logged in websites after clearing all cookies. Is there any solution to this?

Last time I have fillup online form in efrro and after submitting final form and then my form couldn't download automatically or there was not option of download and when I was saving as pdf it was also not working so please improve this problem or otherwise I will leave to use it.

The pdf displays like trash, with letters all crammed together and overlapping (crappy kerning!).

I am on the latest Android firefox as of today (4/27/23).

Example attached. Happens on all pdfs.

Any ideas?

I am using firefox v112.1.0 on a pixel 4a 5g (Android 13).

Websites fail to load about 70% of the time (the progress bar just hangs indefinitely). This isue is present regardless of whether or not I have any extensions enabled.

If I press the "stop loading" button then "refresh" enough times, eventually I'll get lucky and the website will load.

I've been using Firefox Nightly for Android and Firefox for Android for years without issue. I've left Nightly at build 68.5a1 as it has several features that later bulds removed. I sync across all my mobile devices but NOT with my desktop. When a website requires a newer browser version to run, then I switch to plain Firefox.

Today Nightly would NOT open. It opened and pointed to an offline file. I noticed it was marked by "///". I'm sorry I didn't take a screenshot or note the file.

Reading several posts, I removed Nightly, purged the cash and purged the data. Then I reinstalled Nightly from the apk file I saved. While the install went without a hitch, it will NOT permit me to sign in to synch the data saved in all my other devices. It just spins as this image shows.

I read a post indicating a direct url for sign in and tried it. But it only worked for Firefox and NOT Nightly.

How do I resolve this?

Step 1 - Go to Mozilla connect (https://connect.mozilla.org/) Step 2 - Click sign in Step 3 - HTTP Status 401
