This is a problem with Firefox for Android security policies. Because everything works as expected

  • in Firefox Desktop Linux
  • Chrome for Android
  • pasting text instead of an image in Firefox for Android.

I'm trying to paste images in my own web app, in my own Android phone.

  • I get the "onpaste" event and clipboardData field as described in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/paste_event.
  • HOWEVER ONLY in Firefox for Android, and only when I paste an image, both the "items" and "files" lists in the clipboardData field are empty, with length=0.
  • The app is served from an httpS site with a certificate Firefox for Android recognizes as valid.

I didn't find any way to enable clipboard access from the Settings UI for my own site.

It would be sad if Firefox ends up pushing users to Chrome because building our own apps gets more difficult in Firefox than Google's walled garden :'(

Recently I had reload Firefox on my phone. There is now button on the top right from Google asking me give them permission to use my mic, camera, etc. Considering Moz:lla's priority is privacy, why is Google allowed to do this?

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
