Firefox for Android Support Forum

Hi, I'm trying to use auto-fill in other apps on my android device for other android apps and it isn't letting me signing using this utility.

I turned on the option in Firefox browser and also permit the app to auto-fill in other app. but still when I'm trying to log into other apps in the login window first it shows me small popup called "unlock Firefox" and when i click it, it isn't working. The app isn't filling up my credentials in other apps which is also frustrating. i don't want to store my credentials in multiple apps that's why I want to use Firefox.

Let me know what I can do best to help to resolve this issue.

So I have installed Firefox on my Galaxy S20 Plus running Android 12. All permissions are granted and everything is working except the camera. When testing it with https://webcammictest.com/ it ask for permission to use the camera and mic. I of cause allow the use and afterwards it says: The device is not found.

I have tested the mic alone and it is working. The test site is also working in Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi and Brave. So chromium browser do not have any issue with the camera or mic. I have also tried other tests sites with the same result.

I first noticed it when I had to call my doctor which sent a link to a site with camera feedback on. I was surprised and stressed about it wasn't working. Having a doctor waiting and a sick child, while installing Chrome to get it working, was not a fun experience.

I am using latest version 99.2.0 of Firefox browser of Android phone. Now I am telling you the problem i am facing in this browser. Open any website in Firefox browser, select a word on webpage and now you have a context menu in which copy, cut, select all, translate options are given. when you will tap on translate option, Firefox browser will be crashed. only firefox has this problem. it is not working with google translate app. google translate app provide translate option in context menu and we can't use it in firefox only. I am attaching Screenshot also. this bug was also existed in the previous versions.

So I usually read long books that are only divided in chapters online, so no page numbers, using the reader mode in dark mode to make it nicer to read. The problem is that it does not save where I stopped on the page last time while reading like firefox used to as far as I remember. This makes things annoying as I need to remember and find where I stopped reading. Again, long browser pages with no page numbers to remember. I don't even close the pages on my phone and it happens both when I close the browser or just minimize it. I remember that it used to save it without problems. Is this a bug or just a removed feature? Hopefully someone here can help as I didn't find anything helpful via google. If there are more details neededI will add them on request.

Device: Samsung Galaxy S9/Android 10 Build number: Firefox v 99.1.1 Problem: Using Firefox as default browser, the user is failed to get redirected from webview back to app. SDK Version:

Amplify Android v1.29.0

Code used:

The onSuccess Action of Amplify.Auth.signOut is finishing but the webpage “dismiss” is not being triggered

Function call (image)

Has this issue been seen elsewhere? Is there any configuration that needs to be set to allow callback/redirects?

i had open a web page for some reasons. but the website asks to enable flash for load flash content or they prefer to download a browser. so what i do i dont want other browser. i need all features in firefox so pls solve this

Following question asked by petitechisa 7/31/21, 3:24 PM answered but not solved, by jscher2000 - Support Volunteer, then archived.

"Don't like PWA, please bring back 'add to homescreen' bookmarking/shortcut option."

I have the exact same problem as the poster, but only in last month or so. "Shortcut" doesn't open in normal browser (what's a PWA?) and page doesn't have a menu/URL bar, so useless. Normal app either gives "Add to Home Screen" or "Install" option, but both result in PWA (I guess), not a shortcut which opens in app. i. e. menu option irrelevant. Not happy (Just been reading a GitHub stream on the subject - deliberate Mozilla choice! Nobody likes PWA, get rid!!!)

Hi. I have identical problem like this post:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1313779#question-reply

When i download some files jpg, pdf... I have "download error" and only when site requere http. When site works correct on https then no problem. This bug is in all Android Firefox, pc Firefox worls correct.

I used to have bookmarks and other sites I've pinned to the home page on firefox android.

Now every page I visit is showing? Not just the site, but every page on that site, every search result. It's just junk pages filling my home page.

I'm hoping this is a bug and not some attempt to decide for me what I want on my home screen. It's really frustrating.

The only way around is to clear history on exit - but history is used - i just dont need every page i see being on my home screen.

(also the language at the bottom doesn't allow me to choose my language - English - ENGLISH. I don't speak US english.)

Hello,

I’m encountering the exact same issue as here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1285325

The topic was archived and marked as solved. For me it clearly isn’t. Am I the only one?

Thanks.

I’m using Firefox Daylight 100.1.1.

Version 100 is a battery and data drain, impossible to use! At least: turn off settings bar auto hide so we dont have to close app and delete cache/app data non stop!

Cannot remove pop up nag screen: "Useful modifications for easy turning and genuine"

Any time I touch my Samsung screen (without even passing security fingerprint) a Firefox message pops up

Cannot take screenshot of problem (pop up ms from Amazon via Firefox) . . as soon as I pick up the phone or attempt any action whatsoever, the message box disappears. And since I have a fingerprint access option on, the moment my finger touches the screen for full access there is no record of the message for screen capture. Also, if I do nothing, the screen goes black (normal, with time/date etc visible) within a few seconds after the message appears . . though it is waiting for me to touch the screen at which time it reappears again for a few seconds. So it is pick up the phone . . trigger motion detection . . message box appears . . wait a couple of seconds . . black screen . . touch or pick up the phone . . message box . . black screen etc. I can of course do the fingerprint scan and have full phone features, but the preliminary nag "box message" all the time bugs the hell out of me. In the text of my "complaint" I quoted what the message says, it is not from Firefox but does have a tiny Firefox logo upper left. The small rectangular window also has a left/right "full return" arrow (grayed out each one) with a black "pause" button in between the two arrows, and it is not grayed out. However nothing happens if I touch it. In very small print under the main text (first few words of my Amazon review) is a link to the Amazon page where I posted a review of a product. The message itself that I refer to is NOT from Firefox, but is comprised of the first few words of my review headline (not all of it but most) on the Amazon product comment review page. So even though the "content" of the unwanted message is from Amazon, the Firefox logo nevertheless appears (very tiny) in the upper left of the rectangular window, so it appears to be a composite error interaction between Firefox and Amazon. How to tell Firefox to stop posting it? Or how to tell Amazon that their software is somehow involved? I haven't a clue . . ! This is a re-written complaint . . the original one resulted in an email request from "Seburo" who asked for a screenshot, but did not provide a return email address that functioned. So I am posting here a second time, thanks.

1. Youtube videos are not loading correctly in firefox android in full screen mode, only 3/4 of the video gets displayed rest gets hided. 2. Rotation of the screen while watching video based on gyroscope can be made.

My tabs have been ballooning like crazy because of this. I like the feature firefox has to resume browsing where you left off, however, it's been very frustrating to manage lately because of this.

Basically, say i have 10 tabs open, i close out of 5 of the tabs and then exit the app, when i reboot the app, those 5 tabs will be back open and i will have 10 tabs open once again!

Any ideas what might be up with this?

I AM SICK OF FREEZES. I was able to get out of a freeze by closing the browser but when I opened the browser back I got the message Firefox still running at first it was the box with only the edges no writing I left it for a while the the box was populated I clicked shut down and then it restarted I gc and cc in memory and I saved all reports then it froze again. I had to shut down with the power button. This is the first time it has done this way. I have the gz files EASE HELP DONT JUST TELL ME NOBODY ELSE HAS THIS ISSUE.

First it was things like being unable to use GIF toolbar to enter a gif comment on Facebook. Now I cant use the react button(like, heart. Lol,sad. Frown.)

Whats up firefox?
