Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hey I was wondering if there's a way to activate split view on android? I found one extension but it says its not monitored by firefox and it wants some permissions that I'm iffy about given the warning. I'm hoping there's a native way like on desktop and I just cant figure it out. Appreciate any assistance. Thanks

How to delete certain auto fill form like sites and from FF suggest. Tapping on delete they come back. . Not bookmarked. Not in history. Not on a different browser like chrome.

The io needs to go.

Thank-you.

I have an app on my tablet that requires permissions, but the app doesn't specify which permissions it needs or how to set those permissions. How do I find what permissions the app needs and how do I set them?

Thanks.

Hi, I'm using mozilla Firefox both on my desktop pc and android device and I'm using your sync feature but sometimes, I mean it's so close to be regular, my Firefox android prompts me to sign in again. Is there any problem with my account? Thanks for your help

I would like to set up a passkey to make logging in more convenient, but it keeps failing. My network connection is normal, and I don't have a VPN turned on. After entering the verification code, I don't do anything—I just wait for the passkey to be sent. But either it times out or says it's been cancelled, even though I haven't done anything. I've also tried using mobile data, but the same thing happens. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

When i downloaded the app, it automatically came with the ability to group tabs, but after i customized several settings it took all of my tabs out of the groups and i can't group them anymore. The settings i changed ranged from privacy to personalization, i tried to reverse some of them to see if that would help and did a bunch of back and forth, but it's still not coming back. (Im trying to leave chrome because i noticed it had some very concerning lack of privacy settings that messed with my phone's ability to function properly if i turned them off. And Edge is worse.) Firefox seems better, but without the group tabs option it makes it waaaay too ridiculous to try and do any real work with it. I do a lot of multitasking and research and need to be able to bounce around and organize stuff. Your help stuff on tab groups doesnt say anything about how to turn it on or off. So... how do i get it back?

In previous versions of the app, holding the back button on android would display the recent history foldout. Currently it's not working anymore. However I've found out that the "virtual" back button to the address bar that can be added from the settings has mantained the correct behaviour. Adding an image to better clear uo what I'm referring to.

I want to open back camera in ayushman bharat site to doing ekyc of customer, at the moment only front camera can open but no option to switch back camera open or if it available please tell me. Otherwise add this camera switch option or add in settings. Which is best for you please do it.

I had a phone set up for synchronization, and the tabs were synced. Now, that phone has disappeared from my main phone—the one that listed all the devices—and all the tabs are gone. What should I do?

How can I get my tabs back? 😭

I'm running Firefox version 153.0 (build #2016172927) on a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra running Android 16. Firefox works fine accessing pretty much any website I ask it to, EXCEPT for one: https://www.site2241.net/. This is my own website put together with nothing more than HTML, CSS and some basic Javascript. It also has HTTPS for secure connections. Roughly 90% of the time when I attempt to access this website using Firefox on my phone, I receive a "The connection was reset" error. This is only happening with Firefox, and only Firefox on Android. I have Firefox on two laptops and a desktop, with the desktop running both Linux and Windows. None of them have this issue, only on Android. I've now also loaded and tried Chrome, Opera and Brave on to my phone. None of them give me this problem. Only Firefox. I've tried changing just about any setting in Firefox that I can think of (HTTPS-only Mode both on and off, DNS over HTTPS both on and off, Enhanced Tracking Protection both on and off, etc) that might affect this, and nothing seems to change it. Go to the website, and most likely I'll get the "The connection was reset" error. This website, puny and pathetic as it may be, is kind of my running technical diary. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I'd really like to stick with Firefox. Thanks!

I have several issues. 1. YouTube keeps buffering and freezing. And when I use the "YouTube No buffer (No Autoplay)" extension that's supposed to fix it, it makes it even WORSE, and even pauses the video when I tap the screen ANYWHERE.

2. I can't access the AT&T website to manage my phone plan like I always could on Brave Browserbor Google Chrome. It literally will not load at all. I get an IMMEDIATE error message!

3. Sometimes, refreshing a page gives me error messages.

4. Not really bugs, but nuisances to me. I hate that you have to click a quit button in the menu to fully quit Firefox and delete browsing data. I hate that when you bookmark something in desktop view, it doesn't automatically go back to desktop biew when mobile view is enable in site settings, and reverse issue with desktop view enabled but you bookmark something in mobile view. I hate the overall worse experience I get with Firefox not loading pages quickly at all.

Hi Dear I have some problems

1. I can't download a videos directly from the app since from last two weeks

2. inaddition to that connection speed low not from local area connection I have 5G internet connection

I have Firefox on two Windows PCs and a Pixel 8 Pro. If I make a change to my bookmarks on one PC, that change is quickly reflected on the other PC. This does not happen on my Android phone, which is signed in to the same account. I have tried logging out and in on the phone, and eventually deleted all data (not just cache) from Firefox on the phone, then uninstalled the app. I then re-installed Firefox on the phone, signed in to my Mozilla account, and set up my sync requirement including bookmarks. Firefox on the phone then installs a set of bookmarks which is several months out of date. I have repeated this process (delete data, uninstall / reinstall) several times, and signed in both with my email and by scanning a QR code on the PC. The same old set of bookmarks is synced to the phone every time. The old bookmarks which are synced to the phone are not synced to the PCs - those two devices are up to date and syncing correctly. It's almost as if there are two sets of bookmarks on the Mozilla server, one for the phone and one for the Windows PCs. I don't know where to go from here, can anyone help?

Ever since I've had this installed it seems like somebody is able to remote control my device of some type or get my data and I have a delay and they are able to do so forth and a friend of mine installed the browser and I swear I can swear that I seen a account online photo account of mine and her phone and also in maps it says the real time sharing and it will say somebody's 50 ft away how accurate is this browser on this with Samsung division

Some web pages do not display properly and I cannot enter data. For example:

https://www.easyap.com.au/bookings/

The page works properly in Chrome.

Hello,

I've been having an issue where Firefox Android keeps crashing whenever I tap the address bar. This happens when any tabs are open (even just 1) and even when I try to open a new tab to try and avoid the crashing.

The issue is consistent and repeatable for almost a year now. Thought updates would fix it as this issue was reported before. However, even after multiple updates, clearing the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, and disabling all extensions the issue persists.

This is also not just limited to the address bar but also happens when I try to change the search engine from the quick switch on the address bar, search my bookmarks, history and settings, and sometimes when even trying to type into a website. While typing this post I backed away, closing the keyboard, when I clicked back into the text box to type the app crashed.

The only way for me to type in an address or search for something is to close all open tabs and then type into the address bar. Even a single open tab causes the app to crash repeatedly.
