Firefox for Android Support Forum

Hello, on a brand new Asus Chromebook (78.0) fully updated, I installed the latest version of Firefox (84.1.4) from Google Play. I am unable to scroll using 2 fingers. I can only scroll by using up and down arrows on the keyboard. Using 2 fingers highlights text (in reverse direction to finger motion).

Having an issue with Firefox sync opened tabs.

3 devices (Mac, iPad, Pixel 5) are synced with my account. Mac and iPad are showing all opened tabs. On my Google Pixel 5, I only can see opened tabs from the Mac, not from the iPad. Vice versa, iPad shows me opened tabs from my Pixel 5.

Am i doing something wrong or misunderstanding the feature?

in my firefox mobile i am not able to open any website eg(twitter,fossbytes,youtube) ,it is showing secure connection failed i reinstall it but nothing work . Can somebody solve this.

When I try to synchronize with QR code I get a fault 500. If I try via email address it says my password is incorrect, when I then try to change my password via password forgotten, it says my email address is incorrect, catch 22 thus. What now?

I have a new phone and I'm experiencing a strange problem with Bing search engine on Firefox for Android. When I get my search results in Bing and I want to go to images or videos tab, my keyboard appears briefly, and nothing happens. I cannot open any search results, nothing. I have to refresh the page in order to click on any search results. Images and videos tab still not working and if I try to click it again everything will be frozen all over again.

Hello,

What can I do about the new privacy agreement between Facebook and WhatsApp users in Europe? Are there viable ways not to be tracked by both. I want to use both, but I do not want to be a glass customer?

Hi, since migrating to FF daylight, the tabs I specifically want to display under their Desktop version always reset to mobile version. Prior to updating FF, the option would remain specific to each tab and unchanged regardless of closing the app or just switching tab. Now it always resets by default to Desktop version. This is very annoying.

How do I get firefox to use location services? Everything I've looked at thus far has instructed me to do things that were not an option for me e.g., click on >.

Firefox is my primary browser either on desktop or mobile, but since last changes on the android version I dont like not having a way to easily disable addons or operate them, (no toolbar) , well that wouldnt be so bad, but also not having reflow is taking me to more and more use the included mi browser or chrome :(

I would like Firefox to start every time with the same set of tabs open. I have tried creating a collection. However I can't figure out how to make the collection open on startup or some other way to get a fixed set of urls to open in separate tabs. The default behaviour seems to be to open the tabs that were open when the browser was last closed which is not what I want. How do I get the same urls to open every time I launch Firefox?

Cannot figure out how to post to support forums, hope this is it.

Issue 1: Cannot scroll up tabs, which after recent update is all older tabs. It simply swipes the menu closed if you try.

Issue 2: If you accidentally close a tab, hitting "UNDO" does NOT restore the tab. Have to do it manually through history.

Issue 3: (common) Cannot change order of tabs at all. Not by dragging, nor any setting to change the list order between newest tabs ascending or descending.

Issue 4: (possibly being fixed currently) Old tabs you switch to will not load or refresh properly. Will only load if you go to url and send it again as if you typed it.

I'm still learning how to use a touchscreen Android device (Moto G4 phone, just used as a device, at home, no SIM card). I don't yet know the names for various functions on the device so apologies for using the wrong terms. When I "Quit" Firefox Daylight v 84 7 Jan, on Android 12 (the latest version my Moto will take) (swipe down, press the 3 dots icon next to the tabs icon, select Quit, and it closes then deletes my browsing history as set in settings and appears to close down), the next time I press the square Moto icon (in the group of three - the back arrow, the circle for minimising, and the square to reveal which apps are running, up pops Firefox again, along with any other running apps. If I then press the x at the top rhs of the not maximised firefox window, it goes away and does not reappear again unless I start it with the home screen icon or click a browser link. It appears as if "Quit" doesn't close firefox but the x on the non-maximised window does? Can anyone explain this to me - please be gentle. Does Quit not mean quit? Should I really be closing Firefox by pressing the x icon and just ignoring the Quit command? Thanks for the help.

I'm using the Firefox Sync to sync my bookmarks between my windows desktop and mobile. No problems with the sync itself, but on mobile, I have to click Menu / Bookmarks / Desktop Bookmarks / Bookmarks Menu to see my bookmarks. For a feature that is supposed to provide convenience, this seems to be very inconvenient.

Is there any way to get to my sync'd bookmarks faster on Android?
