my company is issuing documents that have QR codes (for verification. to try and counter counterfeiting). scanning them leads the user to the original file issued by our company. I use firefox as the only browser on my android device. when i scan QR, the link returns a .bin file instead of .pdf And from past 2 months i have been asking our web developer to fix the issue. Poor guy has verified multiple times and returned with the same answer that it works fine for him. god knows how much time he wasted in troubleshooting this wicked bug. Just a few minutes back i used a device with a different browser and it worked perfect. i then installed edge browser on my device and voila, it works perfect. how can this be possible? heres the url after scanning the QR code. http://healerkart.com/api/219405270ac5e3e4fb8f355f421ffcbc fyi i am facing this issue on the android version and not the windows one.

When I open any link in another page, Firefox always takes me to the very bottom of the page. I initially thought it had to do with my phone being buggy itself (it was an old thing), but now that I got a new phone, got to test other browsers, this seems like a bug exclusive to Firefoxe.

The browser was working fine at first but after 2 days it started doing it again. Is there a way yo fix this annoying, time-wasting issue?

I had a simple use case, I had an (important) receipt I needed to save as pdf. Why isn't there/what happened to the save as pdf in firefox? I see there was a way to save as PDF before.

I'm pretty technical, I'd like an in depth answer if possible. Was there some library which couldn't compile on newer versions of android perhaps?

Is there another way to save a page, like a receipt, in firefox?

Pocket, etc. simply doesn't cut it, I need the actual html page saved, as-is, not some link service.

getting websites properly labeled on Android desktop

I have a lot of websites bookmarked on my Android, a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 128GB. Well, "bookmarked" is the wrong word. I have saved them on the homepage so that I can get to them quickly. Trouble is, every single one of them is just labeled "Firefox".

For example, I have a folder named "Gen'l Reference" with 11 items. (See attached image.) Some of them open apps and are properly labeled with the name of the app, e.g., "UnicodePad", "Translate", and "DuckDuckGo". But others link to websites, mostly with specific functions, such as Snopes.com, timeanddate.com, and emojipedia.org. All of these just show the Firefox icon and are labeled simply "Firefox". The only way I can get to the one I want is to remember where it is in the layout. How can I give them appropriate labels, with or without their own icons?

Dear Support,

This has happened before. For some reason every time I purchase anything from Microsoft, like Microsoft Office 365, AT&T/McAfee blocks me from my company: SavingsHighwayGlobal, and this is my main source of income.

Why is this and what can I do?

Thanks,
