If the file being downloaded has a really long filename, Firefox doesn't allow scrolling to the download button, that is now below the screen space. A solution could be allowing to scroll or trimming it.

  1. 1- last week Firefox was blocking me from accessing certain sites that I always go to.
  1. 2- I cannot access about:config. I've tried signed in and out as well as with different search engines and I just get a blank screen. Help?
  1. 3- is it normal for FF to have permission to download files without notifying? I checked the permission list and seemed like there is alot of dangerous and malicious permission allowed as system permissions. Please help?
  1. 4- when I log in and check devices, 2 new logins show up. One says my phone's model # and the second one says logged into Firefox browser or something like that. Is it normal to have duplicates like that when I only use my Android phone?
  1. 5- I've tried and cannot find any way to login to my network or make any network changes? Please help?

I commented on play store and was told to send my question on here so they could be investigated more. Thank you for your help.

FF Android won't rename downloaded pictures

More specifically, it will download a few images by renumbering, but will then stop at (2) and save over the last downloaded image rather than continuing to number. I did not have this issue with Chrome, as it would continue to raise the number.

Example: Save Image > pop-up reads "Congrats, unknown.png saved!" > repeat, pop-up reads "unknown.png (1) saved!" > repeat for unknown.png (2) >repeat, but still get unknown.png (2), with the last image now saved over with the new image.

This is especially frustrating, as even after I move images to a new folder, rather than restarting or continuing the numbers it will continue to save over image (2). I work with a site that saves a lot of temporary images so the names are usually bland like this, I would appreciate FF continuing the numbering past (2) or allowing me to rename a file if it plans to overwrite.
