Firefox for Android Support Forum

For some reason, when I open a link on another app, the browser just stays on a blank screen. The loading bar doesn't even appear. I tried to do Open in Firefox, but it does the same thing, and it even makes it so any time I try to go to another tab or try to go to a different website immediately after, it gets stuck on the blank screen as well. I had to force close the app and reopen it to fix it. I don't know if it's a firewall issue or incompatibility.

I have the latest version of Android 13 and Firefox up to date on my phone, but there's been some weird behavior when playing videos as of late. Videos refuse to properly go fullscreen now. When I tap the fullscreen button, the video moves to the center of the screen but stays in portrait orientation, which is obviously not what I want. In addition, picture-in-picture is not working at all, and the notification control panel (that lets you pause and play minimized videos from the notification) is not appearing even though notifications are not disabled for Firefox. Videos still play, but almost none of the features for them are working. What is going on? Can anyone help?

Here's s video showing the problem: https://streamable.com/5q8xt2

There's no indication of any website loading

Entering a new URL in the same tab isn't possible

I've tried force closing the app, deleting app data etc

The issue persists in incognito mode

The google.com on Firefox on android is not working it displays a white screen each time I open Google.com

The power draw can be heinous. In 37 minutes of use so far for this full charging cycle, it has used 5 times the power (measured by Android's battery page) as RedReader has in its roughly 2.5 hours. Is there a way that can be brought to heel a bit?

HELP! My mobile data usage spiked as of June 20th and has continued at unprecedented levels almost every day since. My historic daily usage for the past many years has been around 4 MB and is now 95MB. and busting through my 2GB/month limit. This is ALL due to Firefox! What happened? Something strange happened on June 19th, when my mobile date usage recorded three separate usage figures instead of the single usage figure for all days previously. June 19th showed 2 usage figures and June 30th showed 3.

I can't get any sites to load in my Firefox app since the update to 114.2. I have cleared my cache, forced a stop, and done everything else that's ever worked in the past short of uninstalling and reinstalling. It looks like 114.2 was supposed to fix this issue in older versions, but I'm still having issues.

Sometimes, Firefox 114.2.0 for Android suddenly stops rendering pages or loading new pages.

• Try to search: instantly stops loading, completely white tab, address bar content changes to search
• Try to enter an address directly: doesn’t load, completely white tab, address bar contents stay the same
• Force quitting and reloading doesn’t change anything
• Clearing cache doesn’t change anything
• Clearing data fixes the problem, at the cost of losing all home-screen customization, extensions, and search engine customization, which aren’t synced with the Firefox account

Hello,

I've recently began to experience some pretty nasty behavior of firefox on android. After some time of using the browser (with closing the app in between), The screen starts to flicker (on every website) and the app becomes unusable. I have to force stop the app for it to work for a while again, until it starts flickering again. I have few theories myself (Something wrong with the web-engine, or garbage collector perhaps?) but I don't know how true they are. I did recently update to Android 14 and didn't see this behavior beforehand. I can't show a demonstration because I can't attach video's. Can I post a link to a video?

as subject, firefox is useless on my new Android 10 tablet now as it displays blank page for most sites, am using the lastest android version.

Posting this from my desktop computer.

in this case, when I try to open ao3 from gmail links, the website just gets stuck loading (the lock symbol also has a slash across it). i try to open link in Firefox but same problem. (im on mobile btw)

i can access the same webpage just fine if i find it by searching manually in Firefox though

other website links work fine, and this problem only started maybe a few days ago

Hello,

I have a new cell phone and I installed both Firefox and Firefox Focus apps on the phone. I only use the regular Firefox app. Whenever I google search a business, it gives me the address and phone as normal. However, when I push the "call" option on the browser, it does not transfer to the phone app for me to call. I can't dial the number directly from the website.

I can do it this on Chrome but not Firefox.

Can someone give me the solution?

TIA

I cannot upload any file on any website I delete nightly Firefox and download it again Nothing has changed. I give it promise now i try to upload image and the pictures dont upload This problem from last update

Hello. My Firefox for Android shows only blank pages on my Samsung A53 5G. Last month I had the same issue but an update was available immediately and it fixed the issue. Does anyone have the same issue? Thank you.

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I am writing to seek assistance with a technical issue I've encountered while implementing a backdrop filter and animation on a navigation bar.

To provide some context, I have incorporated a backdrop filter effect on our navigation bar, accompanied by a translateX animation to reposition it smoothly. However, when testing the website in Firefox, I have noticed a noticeable choppiness in the animation performance. This issue persists on both desktop and Android devices.

To help you better understand the problem, I have included a screenshot, so you can see the issue.

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions you may have on how to address this problem and improve the performance of the backdrop filter and animation in Firefox.
