Firefox for Android Support Forum

I've been facing a big issue with downloading files on firefox android, i have an android 11 and i have a good wifi connection. whenever i download a file it'll suddenly disappear once it reaches 50%, if i ever download an APK it won't download in the correct format, instead of having .apk at the end of the file it'll usually has some other codes or numbers

and i really hate how you can't view pending downloads in the download section, you can only view finished downloads and this can be very frustrating especially when you want to see what happened to the pending files. whenever i accidentally close the app it won't continue downloading the files ( i always get a notification for downloads, but when i close the app it disappears, this didn't happen before) however when i re-open the app i won't have any option to continue the download.

The soft touch(or short touch?) feature on the website doesn't seem to work on Firefox. Compared to chrome, Samsung Internet, Brave, Vivaldi

In other browsers, if you lightly touch a post on a community site, etc., the post will highlight or display a preview image, but Firefox does not show this feature, only displays a system window, such as copying links, when pressed strongly.

This problem seems to be related to the browser's touch function. It's not a long press. It's a matter of short press

Hi,

I am a frequent user of Firefox on multiple platforms, including Android 14, where I frequently use DeX.

However, I am many times forced to use Chrome or Samsung Internet on DeX to get a professional computer desktop experience.

Firefox does not recognize different mouse button clicks and neither does it view websites with high resolution, not even after selecting "Desktop mode", but instead shows a zoomed-in phone view. (I gave tried selecting various zoom levels in settings.) There may be other shortcomings as well.

Perhaps some of the issues can be avoided by changing some settings? However, please address the issue of providing a full desktop experience in DeX. Thanks for a great browser in most other respects on multiple platforms.

I last updated Firefox on Feb 5, and had Ublock, Privacy Badger, and Search by Image we add-ons. Tonight, just randomly, I noticed that typed text wasn't appearing in the text box (although the suggestions showed up in the keyboard) at all on every webpage and site.

Uninstalling and reinstalling (along with the add-ons) did the trick. I am really curious what the root cause was. Hopefully nothing sinister.

I'm on a TCL 30XE 5G running Android 12.

I tried 4 times to download firefox from Google play store. It keeps saying try again later all the time. Would someone send me the full version for Android or send me a link to download it?

I use Firefox on at least three different devices, and my Firefox account is linked on all these devises. And I have a huge amount of bookmarks, and almost daily create new bookmarks, as well as store links into existing bookmarks on my Linux Laptop. The problem is that when I then later use my Android smart phone or my Android Samsung Tablet, the bookmarks are not reflected in the same user friendly fashion as it was created or seen on my Linux Laptop. So much so that it is extremely user unfriendly and nearly impossible to store a link into an existing bookmark or to create a new sub-bookmark into an existing bookmark - also because the bookmarks can not be collapsed or navigated as easily as on my main device, which is the Linux Laptop. I need Firefox to reflect my bookmarks in exactly the same fashion and same order as I create them, and I need the bookmarks be be collapsable and navigable. I really want to use Firefox, but this disability forces me to now use Chrome, and I do not want that. Please fix the bookmarks in Firefox. Thank you for your efforts and dedication - it is greatly appreciated. Fanie Bekker, Knysna, South Africa

Hi! I been using youtube through firefox on my phone for awhile now. Mostly since it allows me to play the video when the screen is off.

I have now swapped phone to a HTC U23 Pro. After the change everytime that i look at a video now it stutters a lot. No matter the network connection.

On my old Samsung A71 it still works fine.

It works fine in the youtube app or through grayjay.

Have removed every add on i have and resinstalled firefox but the issue is the same.

Any tips on what i can do to fix it?

I use the Android beta version of Firefox to open the website as shown in the picture. I've turned on the option Ask me when opening links with external apps in settings. When I clicked the Open APP button in the upper right corner, there was no pop-up window asking me whether to open Quark Browser as expected, but it was downloaded directly. However, when I visit some other websites such as Zhihu, the correct pop-up window appears. What is the problem?

After opening mobile FF browser on the Homepage, it shows some links feom my browsing history - Recently visited.

And after 1 or 2 seconds suddenly block Jump back in appears. I'm tired of mistapping on this block, when I'm trying to select Recently viewed link but in this moment Jump back in link appeared on its place!

Please fix this, it's a very bad experience...
