Hi. I'm using firefox for last 7 years or so. I am here to request for a feature tobe added to android version of firefox. The MOUSE/TRACKPAD feature. I tried to navigate through a particular website and i couldnt navigate further . Because the confirmation dialogie box won't close on touch. So keep searching and i found this feature in PIDGIN web browser, which is about to retire soon. It allows a MOUSE POINTER on screen . It helped to close the dialogue box. Adding this feature will help me use a single browser instead of looking for alternatives. I will include the screenshot of the same.. please consider my humble request

Thanks team Mozilla

Hi,. I am trying to enter a sweepstakes on one of my websites, HGTV. They have a new dream home giveaway which I've never had an issue with. How can I clear whatever is blocking me from entering. It allows me to put all my info in bur when I hit enter, it clears out my info and doesn't enter me I to sweepstakes. I just need to clear whatever is blocking me just from this one website and cannot get it right. I am sure there is an easy solution but I don't know what that solution is. Thank you mych!

I normally have Dark Mode always enabled.

This week it's constantly switching to "Follow Device Theme" which then makes it the Light theme.

Interestingly, my phone's theme is also set to Dark mode so the Follow setting doesn't appear to work.

Thanks!

The firefox app always rotates to landscape mode if I turn my phone. I can find a setting that locks the screen for the phone itself, and it appears to stop other apps from rotating, but firefox doesn't seem to care if I have screenlock set to on and just keeps on rotating.

I remember sites with related terms not always being grouped up not too long ago. The change isn't bad but would like to know how to disable it. The main issue being ever since this change was implemented, it breaks some functionality. It keeps you from being able to look through the rest of your history until you delete the group. Either it prevents you from continuing to scroll down. Or when you do keep scrolling, it keeps looping the sites already shown.

Heyy!! So I followed these instructions here: https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2020/09/29/expanded-extension-support-in-firefox-for-android-nightly/

They worked perfectly, and I now have vim controls in my Android Firefox Nightly (lul :D)

BUT (a big one) !!!

How do I configure the add-on?

The link that would normally take you to the options page (something like "moz-extension://..." just takes you to a new tab page.

Am I in uncharted waters here?:D

For many, many years Firefox has been my default browser. Even now, when Mozilla has ruined the Android version I have persisted, but it's got to the point I have to give up. Several weeks ago I visited Paris for six days and now Google in Firefox for Android has decided I'm French. Everything in settings is set to UK English and locale to current, in both Firefox and Google. On my laptop everything is fine, but on my phone all google results (although in the English language) are from France and shopping results in Euros. I have deleted the app, I have cleared the data, I have re-installed multiple times, but nothing has worked. All other browsers work fine, with the correct results from UK and in pound sterling, but in Firefox for Android it's France and Euro's. Is this some mind experiment?
