Firefox for Android Support Forum

Videos continue to play even after I have closed the browser app and you can still hear the audio even if I've locked my phone screen. This happens with adverts on webpages, the follow-on videos after watching a tik tok link, anything. It's incredibly annoying as the only way to prevent it is to make sure I close the tab with the video before closing the browser - if I forget then I have to unlock my phone, reopen Firefox and close the tab, all while the audio is still playing. I want all video to stop playing if I close the browser or lock my phone. How can I fix this?

I try to be on top of my digital privacy, and try to enable all privacy related options available, but I just learned that for a number of month, Firefox mobile had been sending each app open to Facebook which they logged in their "Off-Facebook Activity". Attached is a section of that downloaded report.

Why is Firefox doing this, and how can I stop it? Based on the work put in to make the Facebook container, I'd imagine that Firefox is trying to protect user's data, but here it's looking like they're turning around and just sending them that data directly

Hi. I use Firefox Nightly and I enabled a secure proxy over TLS using only the built-in features, no addons.

My about:config : network.proxy.type = 2 network.proxy.autoconfigurl = data:text/plain,function FindProxyForURL(u,h){return "HTTPS my-secure-proxy:443";}

When I open any site for the first time it asks for the proxy credentials as expected: The proxy moz-proxy://my-secure-proxy:443 is requesting a username and a password.

After entering the credentials I confirm to save them and as long as the Firefox app is not stopped it works. However, when the app is restarted it asks for the password again with both fields blank and after entering the same credentials it asks me to update the saved credentials.

This only happens on Android. Firefox for Windows with the same proxy settings can autocomplete the moz-proxy:// password.

I think it has something to do with the OS keyring unable to store the passwords for unknown URI schemas.

Is there some workaround for that?

It seems that collections are not synced or are synced and than delete existing entries. I had quite a large cooking recipes collection on my phone but now i only see the latest ones.

I previously had a firefox account signed into the browser, I removed it. I no longer wanted it attached.

But since then, EVERY time I open settings, it is highlighted asking me to reconnect and resume syncing. I click "Remove account" multiple times, then a couple hours later its back! With the highlight prompt again.

I cleared the apps cache too. Any ideas? See image attached.
