I have a vivo pad 3, and when I'm using it in landscape mode, the firefox app would only occupy part of the screen, leaving the two sides empty. It used to work fine and I don't know what made it to behave like this since I didn't touch the settings, and no other app is like this.

I hope Mozilla does not add another icon next to the address bar, otherwise it may not be possible to select the address... Do you know a way to edit these icons so they get out of the way? I would't mind disabling translation (not used) or share (accessible via main menu) and the spacing on the icons could use some work too

This post is a follow-up to a tech’s response regarding David Cote's Google Play comment: Following a recent update to my Samsung Firefox browser, the option to position the Address/Navigation Buttons at the bottom has disappeared. This setting was previously found under Settings > Customize. Interestingly, my Pixel phone still retains this feature, as shown in the images below. In contrast, the tablet's browser now displays the Address/Navigation Buttons at the top, along with "Tab" links, resembling the Firefox browser on my laptop. Visual examples are included below for reference.

I have an quite annoying( disturbing) issue related to your browser. The problem is that Firefox is stuck into Desktop mode.

Since I have an Samsung Galaxy Tab S9Fe ( SM-X516BEE). However I've never experienced it on previous versions ( below 120-30 something). My pervious version is: 138.0.2

Not only that all of my serach results are the same as on PC( since Android is LINUX based), bus also that many pages are opened as if they were on PC. But as well that the graphics is completly wierd.

However I have already Deactivated Desctop mode- but however it's still stuck in Desktop mode.

So my vonclution is that Samsung devices( Tablets) make it easy for itself and make it equal to LINUX/ UBUTNU.

So it also sems that all versions published on Google Play= to Desktop( PC/ LINUX). So please get rid of this annoying stuff and publish an regular mobile version.

How to hide the share button in the address bar in Firefox on Android (nighly, single row bottom address bar layout). Together with reader mode and the translate button (if available) there is almost no space left for the address itself. Moving all three buttons to the menu (or at least the share button) would help a lot.

The latest update has moved the adress bar to the top of the screen instead of the bottom of the screen. And there is a bar for open tabs now, which can't be removed. Both changes have made it extremely exhausting to use the app on my tablet and the option to put the adress bar on the bottom is gone. Please help.

I find myself looking for insecure workarounds to make the support page dark. I want to visit the site, but am avoiding it due to the blinding nature of it... Right now, I'm suffering through it to hopefully find a way!

Mozilla has been a lifesaver, this is just a suggestion, throwing it out there is all!

Thanks, Nick

I'm not sure if this is a Firefox or Google Calendar issue.

Please see the attached screenshots, in order.

The issue is accessibility of the Settings icon in the top-right portion of the screen when the system text size is increased from the default.

Obviously, there's a workaround available. Thanks in advance.

Hi. I have some feature requests for Firefox for Android.

- pos of the address bar when typing: The feature to change the position of address bar is useful. But other search bars and the suggestions are still on the top. While putting the address bar makes it easy to access, it confuses my eye movements. I think there should be an option to change the address bar when typing. - shortcuts: I'm using a Samsung Galaxy phone and they have a feature to set some shortcuts like forward and search in app to an action. On this point, Firefox is inferior than Chrome for me. Chrome supports these shortcuts.

address bar layout requires too many taps to use key feature

I've been using FF nightly on Android for a long time now, I've set the address bar to the bottom. a couple months back I got an update that added navigation buttons and a new tab button right below the address bar. this was the best update I've received, so convenient and allowed me to stop using the menu altogether. everything was just one tap away.

attaching a screenshot I found on Google for demonstration of that layout.

recently, I guess there was another update and the change had been reverted. it's a huge downgrade for my user experience to be honest. now the address bar went back to being one small strip, that squeezes everything tightly and forces me to interact with the menu again when I want to go back or open a new tab...

Hello,

I am using a website with text input fields in a dialog box. When I open the dialog box (show_modal()), I see the entire dialog box (Figure 1). When I type in one of the text fields, it automatically enlarges (Figure 2). How can I prevent this?

Hi guys,

Recently my hamburger icon menu (the one that has options like refresh, share etc) broke and all the options are massive. It looks incredibly stupid and is really annoying, is there any way for me to fix it without reinstalling the browser?

I figure this is the best section for asking this question, sorry if it isn't!

Thanks!
