Why does not Firefox alphabetize saved passwords by business? Some logins requiring passwords start with prefixes like login, and for the same company with just the company name. AT&T has several as does Verizon. Unfortunately Firefox spreads them around the list. You have to repeatedly scroll down, try one, then Firefox takes you to the top of the list so was it the 3rd or 4th AT&T item-- you loose your place. Then down much lower on the list are more of the same company. Can you tell i am really passed with Firefox?

Around 3 years ago, I made a request to bring back Firefoxs amazing image toggling feature to allow users to toggle on and off images while browsing the web.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1303546#answer-1348088

Some may think the only purpose of this feature is to save data and that is a good reason. But it has other uses as well. The internet can be triggering, it can be overstimulating. A power user can take control of that, and honestly, after my thread from 3 years ago was closed, the last word was, "Due to your request, The Team has decided to add this permissions (images, web fonts, javascript) somewhere around the end of this year."

It was even put on github as an issue to work on. https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/11460

But 3 years later, here we are. Still no Images selection in the Permissions menu.

I'm back asking for it again. I'm tired of using Opera mobile as the only mobile browser that has this feature. I want to come back to Firefox. And if someone won't do it, please point me in the direction for how I myself can alter this open source software so that I can add this old feature back.

Where can I find the extension for Grammarly. I hate it; can't go to extensions just add-ons. Please don't offer it as part of Firefox. It doesn't like you to use a semicolon; wants you to use a full sentence instead of Correctly using a semicolon. Stupid addition!

Is there a way to make a bookmark to a folder of bookmarks?

How to do it, if it is possible?

I would like to have an easy access to particular folder of bookmarks both - on my PC and my mobile phone.

Now it is an "either/or" case - easy on one device, but harder on the other.

It would be nice if Firefox supported dual screens on Android. I have a Surface Duo and the other browsers allow me to run one tab on each screen. There's an option in each of the browsers to "open tab on other screen" so you can do side by side browsing. Firefox doesn't have this feature.


https://devblogs.microsoft.com/surface-duo/android-12l-foldable-developers/

"Dual-screen libraries

Take advantage of our developer and designer resources at learn.microsoft.com/dual-screen including the library of dual-screen layouts that includes: FolableLayout, Snackbar, BottomNavigation, FoldableNavigation, and the latest NavigationRail component.

To see the user experiences possible on foldable devices, download the Dual Screen Experience Example from Google Play (or get the source). "

I have no idea if it's even possible, but on Desktop I can sort my history in the order I've visited them, from the latest being on top to the ones visited a long time ago towards the bottom (and this should really be the default method for sorting history).

How can I achieve this on Firefox Nightly for Android?

I use Firefox for Android on my tablet (8" Samsung Galaxy tab S). It's really annoying that I can't add lots more of my synchronised desktop bookmarks to the homepage (which is mostly blank space, since I don't find all the suggestions, etc. useful). It would be great to give users more scope to customise this feature.

I think it was Firefox 52 or somewhere around the time that Firefox 52 came out, there was an addon that allowed users to spoof their device. I could make my Android phone appear to various websites, to be a Computer, a Tablet, an iphone, etc. Does Firefox still have that Addon? If so, how can I download it? If not, does anyone know where I might find a similar one?

Thank You.

  1. 1- last week Firefox was blocking me from accessing certain sites that I always go to.
  1. 2- I cannot access about:config. I've tried signed in and out as well as with different search engines and I just get a blank screen. Help?
  1. 3- is it normal for FF to have permission to download files without notifying? I checked the permission list and seemed like there is alot of dangerous and malicious permission allowed as system permissions. Please help?
  1. 4- when I log in and check devices, 2 new logins show up. One says my phone's model # and the second one says logged into Firefox browser or something like that. Is it normal to have duplicates like that when I only use my Android phone?
  1. 5- I've tried and cannot find any way to login to my network or make any network changes? Please help?

I commented on play store and was told to send my question on here so they could be investigated more. Thank you for your help.

I found that deleting an entry from a collection is WAY too easy. If you accidentally 'bump' swipe left OR right, or bump the X icon, it is instantly deleted. I don't know how many times I have done that, and often don't even remember what entry I ACCIDENTALLY deleted.

Is there any way to minimize the ways an entry is deleted, or enable some form of delete verification? If not, it needs to be added for a future update.
