On mobile when you install website aka make a shortcut to it on desktop and then open it the notification panel at the top is white for Twitter and that also makes the text unreadable. It would be great to have just one system default color just like in the browser (on my phone it's a gray color but I guess it depends on the theme). Or maybe even allow you to customize it per shortcut.

You can see that in the screen shot the top of the screen is white - that is the notification panel. Looks very wasteful and out of place. Pitch black would honestly be better for dark mode devices.

Mobile Firefox v. (102.1.1 (Build #2015887771), f61b8e3a3+ AC: 102.0.12, 1566dca4ac GV: 102.0-20220620184213 AS: 93.1.0)

Hi there Why does Firefox 102.1 Android sometimes show "Install" instead of "Add to Home Screen" in the dropdown menu when I want to add a website page to my home screen? Why does it do this with some sites and not with others? Can I prevent Firefox from showing "Install"? Thanks for any help. Ian

The widget mic makes a very annoying sound every time that you tap it to do a search. It is tied to the ringer volume apparently. Is this a Firefox feature that can be turned off? Or is this tied to Android only and you have zero control?

If you have control over it, please disable it, it's pointless and serves no purpose. When you tap the microphone a big huge screen comes up letting you know to speak.

Before Firefox for Android v100 it was possible to show only pinned sites in the top sites section in the home screen. Now alongside my pinned sites (currently 3) there are 2 rows of 4 sites and 2 pages. All these other sites are pages related to my work, full of test URLs, 500 or 404 pages... and so on. How do I revert it to the old behavior?

I have installed and utilize two different browsers for Android phones: Firefox and Opera. When reading an article I was sent part of in my email, I opened the entire article so I could read the article in it's entirety. You choose to open the article in my Opera browser when you could have detected that I had Firefox, a browser you support, and opened it in the Firefox browser. Then we wouldn't have had to stop and go back and copy the article's URL and open my Firefox browser myself. I don't have either of my browsers set as "default" for exactly this reason; so articles can open their publication in the browser of their choice. By the way, the URL that I was opening was: https://member.carepayment.com/Errors/UnsupportedBrowser. This is the first time I have ever been told what browser I could use to view a personal account. Next time, detect that there's a supported browser and open the one you like and support. My Firefox browser could have been opened by you, but not receiving any instructions otherwise, it opened my Opera browser and I couldn't see my personal account of a healthcare payment company.

I have both Firefox and Opera browsers on my phone. Neither is set as the default browser. When you wanted me to open my Firefox or other supported browser, you could have detected that I have Firefox for Android installed and opened that one. But you opened the Opera browser instead. So since it wasn't a supported browser I had to copy and paste the URL I was trying to open into the Firefox browser that it had opened and you couldn't work with. If only you had some way of detecting if I had the supported browsers available, you could have opened the Firefox browser.

As for you know there are folder for tabs on chrome (which is a great feature) You guys made a similar tool for Search grouping which has the similar potential but less accessable since we can't just move tabs there in or our (and worse we can't even rearrange them).

So please allow us to do so. Not sure this is the right place to ask for feature suggestions, but I believe you can make it reach the right place

First apologies, went through about 2 dozen threads on this topic and still left unable to consistently get the menu button (3 dots vertically) to appear and remain adjacent to address/search field.

All I want to do is access my bookmarks easily and reliably from an existing or new tab. The Firefox menu button appears seemingly at random, at other times I am left wanting to Frisbee my galaxy tab because I cannot access my bookmarks.

Sophomoric I know, but appreciate any and all assistance.

A recent update (v102) to Firefox for Android has broken "search browsing history". Before, I was able to type "tw" and see a list of ~20 Twitter results from my browsing history, arranged by frequency of visit; now, it only shows one. Is this new behaviour a deliberate change (if so, it's really bad compared to the ease of usability of the feature previously - please revert it!) or a bug?

Is there a way to globally turn off the appearance of all web site accessibility widgets for the Android version of Firefox? These widgets, while I'm sure are helpful to those that need them, are a nuisance to users who don't and are typically located in easy to reach (read: accidentally), space-taking areas of the browser. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
