Firefox for Android Support Forum

I have tried to keen a two year old version of Firefox for Android going but finally had to update. I have always used and supported Firefox since the start but I am now loosing my patience with the new development.

All I want is to open a new tab and it will take me straight to my homepage. Something that used to be a basic feature of using a search engine. Now days I have to tap about three times to select my homepage in Google.

I have seen this question asked before on this and no defined answer. I have tried everything.

Why do I have to have a custom Firefox page in every new tab, I don't care about all the noise from sites, preferences - I don't want to know some morose politicians wears pink frilly nickers every time I open a tab... All I want is to simply, easily start my search on Google again every time I open a new tab.

Not much to ask is it?

P.S Yes I have cleared all preferences on Firefox homepage tab. Set Google as my homepage & not using any customised jump back ins. My opening is also set to homepage- doesn't work

I have this as a statement in my Playstore review, and Mozilla asked me to put it here as a question! But it really is NOT a question and they should have requested it as feedback instead. But I'll expand on it a bit here anyway. The problem involves keeping tabs open all the time. They should not lose their qualities but they do when you leave and then return latet to such a tab when it comes to Desktop Site selection. The flag still shows it as enabled but in actuality when you examine the page itself you find that it no longer behaves like it, and it won't even let you disable and then re-enable it to fix it! It just ignores your presses at that point! It's definitely a bug and it wasn't there earlier at some point although I'm not sure when it stopped working and might have even been with different Android versions being that I had only recently started using it on Android 11. But at some point in earlier Android versions it definitely had worked and the tabs we're also rearrangeable back then as well. The bottom line is that the problem isn't hard to reproduce...it's there CONSTANTLY and you just need to keep your tabs open all the time and try keeping them as desktop selected for them while working on other apps so that it temporarily dies in the background and then returning back and then you'll see right away that it has this problem.  :)

I couldn't even get on Google yesterday because the hackers are so smart or they just have a great device to hack accounts and I want you to send the hackers to prison ASAP. I already know that they are my at least 2 neighbors and 1 I rent to now and then the other hackers are staying so close to my garage that they can get into my spectrum wifi router and then they have broken into my garage and stole my passwords and then over $1,000.00 in cash and gold, etc. This is a brand new Gmail account now and they have probably seen the passwords already I would think!!!

Using FF 101 on Andtoid phone. If I do not use Android's "general" PW then how do I protect FF PWs if I

lend to a friend for a minute? There's no primary PW. So how's it done? Is there any change FF will ever have a primary (master) PW again? Thanks

There are 226 questions that came up when I searched for "about: config". A lot of users have requested that "aboutconfig" be an option for users who want to solve some of their own problems. I'm not a developer and find that i can research and follow instructions to resolve and/or personalize FF using it.

So, what do we as users need to do to impress this upon developers to lut it back on FF android, heck, on all of the apps!

If someone fools around with it and creates their own issues, thats not on y'all ! They can reinstall or go back to correct, etc. PUT A WARNING LABEL ON IT if you need to. From what I've read, thats the main reason it was removed.

Why punish responsible users for those who aren't ????

How do we impress this upon FF ???

Hi, hope someone can help! When I close tabs on my Android (not all tabs but usually a few) when I open the app later I find the tabs have returned, is there anyway to make the tabs stay closed? Sometimes I'll close a few then find them randomly back next time I use Firefox. I've been using Firefox on Android for a long time and this has only just started happening. My laptop is not physically switched on so it is not syncing to that. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I have found that the Korean search engine, 'NAVER', disappeared from the list of search engine in Firefox for Android of Korean version.

NAVER has been renowned for its popular search engine in Korea, so most people can't be without it online.

Anyone who knows whether Firefox can restore it as before?

I'm using a Galaxy A13 5G and A13 4G and when I go to have Firefox save a password for an app after entering my credentials, it doesn't offer to save the credentials. It will prompt me to enter my phone's PIN when I select a username and password field in an app, but it doesn't do anything. The password manager works most of the time with the browser though.

Really would like this fixed since I prefer to use firefox's password manager.

Google Took Down My Bar..Every Time I Try To Stop Google They Take Over My Whole Phone. And Get Rid Of Almost Every Thing I've Done. The Reason I Stop Google In The First Place, Is They Won't Allow Me To Use Foxfire. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO SET UP MY FOXFIRE ACCOUNT WITHOUT GOOGLE MESSING ME UP. NOW I'M MAD Why Can't I Use My Foxfire Browser With Samsung Galaxy A3

I have a picture of the hackers and I called the FBI AND THEN THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENT OF ROWAN COUNTY AND THEY DIDN'T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY, I WANTED THEM TO TAKE FINGERPRINTS AND THEN TO DO DNA TESTING AND THEN I KNOW THAT THEY WOULD BE IN JAIL FOR B&E FOR MY GARAGE 5-7 TIMES AND THEN I'M SURE THAT THE HACKING WOULD BE FINISHED. EVERYTIME I LEFT THE HOUSE THEY BROKE INTO IT SO I ALREADY BOUGHT 3 DIFFERENT SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS AND THEY ERASED THE FOOTAGE BY USING A MAGNET

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.)
