Firefox for Android Community Forum

Before that, I had encountered this case as well. After reinstalling, the new menu was applied, but today it reverted to the old one again, and reinstalling no longer works.

Tab management has been changed. Very annoying new UI design.

I can no longer share all tabs with one click.

Please bring back this feature.

Is there a setting to go back to the old behavior?

In which version had this feature?

Where can I download  old version's APKs?

I recently had my firefox mobile for android updated apparently, but it is so user unfriendly and not very accessible in the way that the new layout with the dark tabs and small pictures makes it very hard to read which tabs are open and is unfriendly on the eyes. Is there any way I can revert back to the previous version? I really loved the layout and the user friendliness of it and now I am just considering downloading another browser because I am so bummed by this update. Thanks in advance.

So either firefox or android (probably firefox) just updated, and it's made a mess of the browser. First of all, the layout of everything has changed - the traffic light menu's at the bottom of th e screen now, completely different, there's a pull bar to see stuff that was previously readily available, the tab icons are longer for some reason but I think they're also skinnier? The hell? It's just generally worse than what it was before. I hate every part of it and want it rolled back on that basis alone, because I actually liked how it worked before, and if I want to change how my phone works I'll do it myself. Stop messing with my stuff, mozilla, I don't come into your house and start moving all your furniture around and putting your cutlery in the wrong drawers, and I'd appreciate it if you returned the courtesy.

But, as annoying - read, infuriating and unnecessary - as that is, that's not the real problem. Oh no. No, that's a personal issue, I'd either learn to live with it or I'd find a modification workaround to get my old UI back. No, the problem is that my previously smooth tab screen - you know, the one where you can see all your tabs open - now lags. Noticeably. How do you mess that up? Seriously, what did you do? It freezes when I'm scrolling up and down! How! How do you do that!

In summary, update bad for UI reasons (please stop moving things for no reason, or at least give us an option to move it back, some of us hate that Really Quite A Lot, to the point where we left chrome over it) but also for previously-nonexistent latency where there absolutely should not be any. I'm on a Fairphone 5, this isn't an ancient brick that barely runs. How do you update something to be actively less functional? Please just roll it back. And if you only take one bit of feedback from me ever, stop touching the UI. It's really annoying. Please. Just don't.

bold text Everything I try keeps getting blocked I can't open any sites from my emails and I'm wondering why I used to be able to open them directly but since the update nothing goes through I want it to stop.every web browser blocks the sites.

I default to a portrait orientation in my phone, when entering full-screen on a YouTube video Firefox automatically rotates the screen to landscape and then back again to portrait when exiting full-screen, that's great, however if I then change tabs and return to the tab where the video was playing (which is no longer in full-screen) Firefox rotates the entire site back to landscape mode. 100% reproduction rate. Temporary fix is entering and exiting full-screen again but the bug happens again if I change tabs subsequent times.

Long story short, I want to view a link from a QR code, but I don't want to open it in Firefox itself. I fear that doing so would expose me to scams. So, I want the link prompt (deny or allow) to allow me to copy the url, so that I can paste it in a different browser.

Hello all, I recently returned to Firefox after a long hiatus due to multiple problems. Some things are better, but the most important issue on android persists:

I have it set to always e in private browsing and to always clear everything on exit. I am definitely hitting "quit" from the menu to close the app, not just swiping it away. When I reopen it, I am still logged in to everything and nothing is cleared.

I have tried: Clearing cache and data Turning this setting off, restarting, turning it back on Force stopping the app both before and after exiting Reinstalling

I'm on a oneplus n30.

I have also tried manually clearing everything from the settings, then exiting, and it still leaves me logged in and doesn't clear everything. I have found threads from folks for years dating they've had this issue, but have not found a solution.

In a recent Firefox update, UI was updated to reflect Material Design. However, some elements aren't displaying as intended. However, the screen with tabs is not displayed on the entire screen (that is, it does not extend into safe zones), although the indents on the screen allow this to be done.

Im having a difficulty making Foxfire my default. Ive tried the written way to make it my default, but unfortunately Ive been unable.

Would you help me out please?

I refeshed a page just now, and all the tabs have gone weirdly long, it's a nightmare to interact with different pages, the intuitive structure is gone. What just happened? And how can I put the original settings back?? In the past, security updates did not wreck the ease of use, so I'm guessing this was a cosmetic 'upgrade' and I'm desperately hoping someone knows how to roll it back....

Hello to all. I am writing to ask for help with sync for Android. I have 2 Samsung devices: my S24, which is my phone, and my Galaxy Tab S10 FE+, which is my tablet. I do have an HP laptop, running Windows 11. That device is fine.

I recently noticed both of my devices had the same model # shown up under my Firefox. {it was my tablet.} Idk why. So I read online, that I should sign out, then sign back in, to fix this. So I signed out on both devices, at the same time. I closed both windows, then I restarted both devices, & then signed back in, at the same time. My S24 is fine, but my S10 FE+ is not. It won't sync. So I repeated the same steps with it, and it still will not sync. So I went to my Mozilla Account, then Connected Services, to see the list of devices. I did note a duplicate device, not sure which one. There was no name. I did sign out of it there, but otherwise, everything else looks good. I also pulled up some articles online & troubleshooted, but again nothing. I'm now doing a hard reboot, which is where I turn it off, then wait for at least 5 minutes. Then I'll turn it back on. Nope, nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this, please? I have no idea as to how to go around the matter by manually doing everything like once a day. I mean, yikes. Thank you for any help, seriously.

Yes what is the official URL search link to add yahoo search engine so i can add yahoo search to my search url in the settings on my android phone. Thanks Graham
