Firefox for Android Community Forum

I want to use Perplexity AI with the URL: https://www.perplexity.ai/ but I don't know how, but the system rejected it.

I try to add DuckDuckGo as a my search engine on my iPhone but I only get the error message: “please fill in all the fields correctly”

What am I doing wrong?

For the last few months Firefox on my android phone has been often (but not always) forcing searches with bing. I have all search options set to Google so this should not be happening and I don't want it. I have no extensions installed at all. I have also turned off studies as I saw reports online that this can sometimes cause the problem I'm having but it makes no difference.

I recently got a message from mozilla that I could make my browsing safer. I clicked on it. Now DuckDuckGo is my only search engine on Mozilla. I want to go back to the way it used to be. How do i do that?

I need a default search string in order to add Firefox as a search option. Directions on the app advise how to add a search option, but a default search string is required and I haven't been able to figure out what use. https://firefox.com/search is the best I can guess. Any help for an old man is appreciated.

The sound input icon prevents me from typing the site name. I do not use voice input, much less use Google. The input field is small and it is not convenient to edit the name of the site where you are going to go and then voice input is distracting.

For some reason for the last year I haven't been able to search anything relevant to what I'm looking for some how someone has me hacked and Firefox is the only browser I can get through to I've bought new phones at first it works then a couple days later the same things happens with the new phone that happened with the last phone. Please can someone help?

No trust. Won't keep a browser that Google has to know everything. This is why I downloaded one. But search bar shows Google is there. I factory reset before cause of no trust. I'll do again if have too. I have asked for help on their helpline. Lied too, manipulated and scammed out of money.i had, passcodes, passwords, and fingerprints set up, and all info of accounts. Still, Google wouldn't give my accounts back that had money in, but would put an old account up. Sick of nosy, un trusted browsers!!

The instructions to allow the brave search to work from the address bar have never been able to work. So I'm willing to try this suggested "startpage" search, but they recommend to install it via an xpi file. Currently Firefox on my Android will not access the xpi file how do I change this?

I recently discovered ecosia.org search engine and decided to add it to Firefox on my mobile device. However when I search for something, the attached '404' page is shown. This invites me to 'return to ecosia.org' and re-enter the search parameters. Perhaps I entered the wrong URL for ecosia.org? Does it try to load the browser of that name instead of the search engine?
