Firefox for Android Community Forum

My Android 11 Lenovo 10" tablet will not display the desktop version of any site, despite having both menu switches set to DT. It's particularly annoying on sites like Wikipedia where I am registered and have configured the WikiP user settings for a style that has worked for me for 15 years. The two views are switchable in Chrome, but suddenly Firefox is only displaying the mobile page. I am trying to migrate to primarily using Firefox to escape the big G marketing artillery barrage and totally overreaching information piracy framework. Any suggestions out there? I wonder if Android itself could be responsible?

I cant even see Chewy's page. Just stays white. They told me they no longer allow Firefox to access their website. They told me to use Chrome or Edge. Obv they want more personal data.

I have Proton VPN (i tried different servers and even disconnected). I run several blocking extensions incl User Agent Switcher. I tried a Chrome or IE string. Still cant even see the website.

I really dont want to give them more data. I've had no problems for years. Anyone else? Thanks.

Firefox runs in background even after menu quit option with clear all browser history (proper exit). Firefox heats my phone while using. I am using Android 13 phone.

There is a significant delay with URL suggestion autofill when writing an address/URL into the URL-/search field. Many times resulting in a web search of the incomplete URL name, instead of going to the correct page. (Oneplus 13)

Hello Mozilla team, 👋 I’ve noticed that some educational websites — including my own scholarship guide, https://theoasisscholarship.com/

— aren’t displaying correctly on Firefox for Android.

The issue I see: Some pages don’t load fully, especially forms and PDF links. The same pages work fine on Chrome or Edge mobile. Clearing cache or disabling add-ons didn’t help. Can you please guide me on how to debug or fix this issue? Is there a specific setting, user agent, or cache issue on Firefox mobile that may cause this? Thank you for your help! 🙏

​I am reporting two visual glitches (white bars) occurring in the Android version of Firefox.

1. White Bar Appear Numbered list items at the Top in Portrait Multi-Select Mode
   When the browser is in portrait mode and I enter the multi-select state (e.g., in the Bookmarks or Downloads management screens), a white bar appears briefly or persists at the top of the screen. This seems like a UI rendering error.
2. White Bar Appears on the Left Side in Landscape Mode
   When the phone is in landscape mode, a persistent white bar/strip is visible on the far left side of the screen. This affects the full-screen display.

Device Information: ​Android Version: Android 16 ​Firefox Version: 144.0.1 (Build #2016121407)
