Firefox for Android Support Forum

Hi, I'm trying to use auto-fill in other apps on my android device for other android apps and it isn't letting me signing using this utility.

I turned on the option in Firefox browser and also permit the app to auto-fill in other app. but still when I'm trying to log into other apps in the login window first it shows me small popup called "unlock Firefox" and when i click it, it isn't working. The app isn't filling up my credentials in other apps which is also frustrating. i don't want to store my credentials in multiple apps that's why I want to use Firefox.

Let me know what I can do best to help to resolve this issue.

So I have installed Firefox on my Galaxy S20 Plus running Android 12. All permissions are granted and everything is working except the camera. When testing it with https://webcammictest.com/ it ask for permission to use the camera and mic. I of cause allow the use and afterwards it says: The device is not found.

I have tested the mic alone and it is working. The test site is also working in Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi and Brave. So chromium browser do not have any issue with the camera or mic. I have also tried other tests sites with the same result.

I first noticed it when I had to call my doctor which sent a link to a site with camera feedback on. I was surprised and stressed about it wasn't working. Having a doctor waiting and a sick child, while installing Chrome to get it working, was not a fun experience.

"Don't like PWA, please bring back 'add to homescreen' bookmarking/shortcut option."

I have the exact same problem as the poster, but only in last month or so. "Shortcut" doesn't open in normal browser (what's a PWA?) and page doesn't have a menu/URL bar, so useless. Normal app either gives "Add to Home Screen" or "Install" option, but both result in PWA (I guess), not a shortcut which opens in app. i. e. menu option irrelevant. Not happy (Just been reading a GitHub stream on the subject - deliberate Mozilla choice! Nobody likes PWA, get rid!!!)

Hi. I have identical problem like this post:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1313779#question-reply

When i download some files jpg, pdf... I have "download error" and only when site requere http. When site works correct on https then no problem. This bug is in all Android Firefox, pc Firefox worls correct.

1. Youtube videos are not loading correctly in firefox android in full screen mode, only 3/4 of the video gets displayed rest gets hided. 2. Rotation of the screen while watching video based on gyroscope can be made.

My tabs have been ballooning like crazy because of this. I like the feature firefox has to resume browsing where you left off, however, it's been very frustrating to manage lately because of this.

Basically, say i have 10 tabs open, i close out of 5 of the tabs and then exit the app, when i reboot the app, those 5 tabs will be back open and i will have 10 tabs open once again!

Any ideas what might be up with this?

I AM SICK OF FREEZES. I was able to get out of a freeze by closing the browser but when I opened the browser back I got the message Firefox still running at first it was the box with only the edges no writing I left it for a while the the box was populated I clicked shut down and then it restarted I gc and cc in memory and I saved all reports then it froze again. I had to shut down with the power button. This is the first time it has done this way. I have the gz files EASE HELP DONT JUST TELL ME NOBODY ELSE HAS THIS ISSUE.

First it was things like being unable to use GIF toolbar to enter a gif comment on Facebook. Now I cant use the react button(like, heart. Lol,sad. Frown.)

Whats up firefox?

Firefox is using an awful lot of power. Currently with no tabs open it's using 38% against Chrome's 13% and I've had 45% earlier today. I've never checked apps for power consumption previously so that might be normal, but it sure looks like heavy usage. With 6 tabs open, Samsung Internet browser is using 1%.

It's the same for both browsers after a restart. It's an Honor 8A phone, Android 9. I re-installed FF and it's version 101.1.1 When I re-installed FF it was initially only 18% but its gone up and stayed up.

There are settings under App Launch to manage app launch automatically to save battery power by preventing some launches, but it doesn't affect things.

At one point I thought the problem was synchronisation with my FF account, but I just signed out of both FF account and also Youtube, restarted, just the same. When I signed into Youtube in Samsung internet browser it went up to 1.14%

ADDED LATER. I left the phone on and charging overnight. In the morning FF was 9% while Chrome and Samsung browser didn't even appear in the battery useage listing. As soon as I opened a couple of pages in FF, it shot up to 48%.

What else can I check? Is there anything I can do? The Honor battery only just gets through the day anyway, so this is a problem.

Many thanks.

The videos look blurry and it seems like a little zoom part can be seen from one corner of the video to zoom in more. The whole video is not controlled within the skin. Nothing in the video can be seen after playing the video due to problems. I have started the application by deleting it several times in a row. In the first case it stays good for a few days and then it causes problems in video play. After browsing all kinds of websites, the videos get blurry. Hopefully that will solve the problem.

My configuration page is not opening. Whenever I write about:config it sometimes not open and sometimes just show black screen. Please tell me what to do. Without Javascript my other sitea are not working properly.

My phone is Nokia X100 with android 11. CPU is 480 5G UFS 2.1 storage Ram is 6gb I already did some tweaks in about:config but it is still slow to load webpages especially going from one site to another site. Any flags recommended? I know there is the option to reduce animations but they split into many animations flags I just don't know which are supposed to be able to speed up the speed by disabling them.
