Hi, I have Firefox for Android running on my Samsung Galaxy S23 and the windows version on my PC. Both are logged in to the same Firefox account and are syncing fine. On my PC, the password manager is working as expected and autofilling website passwords.

However, on my phone, I can't seem to get the autofill to work. I have been needing to go into the password manager and copy the password every time. It will ask to save the password and the password manager has everything stored as expected. Tried various things like logging in and logging out but nothing has fixed it. I did notice that Samsung Pass often pops up during the website login process and was wondering if this could be the reason Firefox password manager is not working for autofill.

Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I simply cannot open the file location and have absolutely no clue where it is located. Idk why it's not on download folder sorted by date, all it prompt me to do is open the pdf with whatever pdf viewer and there are absolute no other way to know the path, thus impossible to import it later on my Dropbox app

I’ve been using the IRONFOX browser, which is the successor to Mull Browser. While I appreciate its privacy-focused design and open-source philosophy, I’ve encountered performance issues. The browser is significantly slower compared to Chromium-based alternatives. Website loading times are extremely long, and overall responsiveness feels sluggish.

I’m curious if anyone else has experienced similar issues with IRONFOX. Are there any solutions or optimizations that could improve its performance? I want to stick to privacy-focused tools, but the speed difference is making it challenging to use as my primary browser.

Hi, Being that OLED and AMOLED screens have become more frequent in recent years (and seem to be coming to stay) I am perplexed by the seeming impossibility of finding a way to make Firefox more friendly towards these devices.

I would like to use Firefox with a true black theme on its UI that would waste less battery and go easier on my screen's long-time durability. However, not only do I find that there is no option to do this in-built on the app, there isn't even support for external add-ons or thèmes that could get the job done!

There really shouldn't be any reason why, even if the Mozilla team are unwilling to code the option into the default settings, it couldn't be done through a user-made theme.

Instead, the solutions I've come across seem to span from third-party apps that require rooting the device to modifications made directly by decompiling the APK!

I know this was more of a complaint than a request, but heavy battery usage is a *valid* reason not to use something like a browser, which is likely to accrue several hours of use each charge cycle.

This *is* something Mozilla should care about.

TLDR;

Please point me to a way of making the Firefox UI AMOLED-black that does not require me to mess with the internals of an APK or void my phone's guarantee.

Sorry for the essay.

Why can i not use Prime video in Firefox anymore for Android? Is just doesnt want to load the video, i have turned off any and all adblockers.

Also why on gods green earth have i started to have to double tap the search bar before Firefox responds? I dont have to do it on Chrome, edge, brave, opera, only Firefox what are they doing over here these days?

I have several collections in Firefox on my old phone, things I use regularly. It's the only way to save websites on the phone, so I assumed this would sync to my new phone.

I can see an archived thread about this from 2022, is it really not possible to sync these? It seems bizarre to offer the capability to bookmark sites, but not allow it to live with you.

Will it ever be possible? Or should I stop relying on this feature? The main collection I use frequently is one for recipes.

Hi Firefox I installed Firefox and I have a problem with transferring passwords from Chrome to Firefox because I don't see the option to export hala to it, how can I do it and do I need the PC version to do it? Best regards, Kacper.
