When using the Android version of Firefox, enabling "Always request desktop site" in settings works as expected when directly searching for a website via the address bar, resulting in the requested desktop site. However, when navigating to a new page via this method (such as clicking search engine results), it returns the mobile site. The browser menu bar still displays that the desktop site is enabled, and clicking the button still refreshes the page, but the result remains unchanged, still showing the mobile version. The "Desktop site" button status also remains unchanged. Everything works normal only after completely closing the app, but the issue persists upon subsequent navigation. It can be confirmed through the User Agent detection tool that the issue is with the User Agent.

If I close a page which is at the bottom, the pop–up notification will prevent me from closing following pages at the bottom. To wait it to dissappear or to move it horizontally out (which takes a rather long distance for fingers, hope you can allow users to customize the distance) are inconvenient.

Hi there,

I recently tried to customise the firefox icon on my phone (Android v14). The path: Firefox: Settings>Customise>Select App Icon

Unfortunately I have ended up with two duplicates of the firefox app icon (shown in image) that I cannot seem to remove. The only option shown is to uninstall which doesn't sound right

Is there any way to remove the duplicates or else revert back to the original icon?

Let me know if more info is needed.

Many thanks

I use a Galaxy A21. It still has the OEM Samsung browser.

What can I use that isn't Goole.

Sliding items sideways to delete them is a real problem in the Collections section. The slide detection isn't very sensitive so even with an accidental flick of a finger it deletes a link without any way to undo it. I have deleted far more links by accident in this way than I have ever deleted any on purpose.

Is there a way to disable this feature, or at least turn it off till I really need it? Or can Mozilla add an undo feature for this? Thanks.

I live in New Zealand. I've recently come back here after a holiday in Europe. My phone is set to automatically pickup the correct time from my local phone provider and it's done that so I'm now UTC + 13.

My Fennec browser isn't reflecting that and still thinks it's in the UK.

Is there a setting I can change? Or someway to flush that cached value?

Thanks.

When I tap a text box to type on some webpages, the page automatically zooms in, making me have to manually zoom out again. I understand why this might be helpful to some people, but I just find it frustrating. Is there a way to disable it? I don't see anything in the accessibility settings and I've tried making my font size bigger, but that didn't work.
