Firefox for Android Support Forum

OK, I changed phone recently & managed to sync across from my old phone. I think I had to reset all the settings though, so it only saved/synced tabs & bookmarks etc...

The new phone then stopped working & so I'm now trying to sync again on another new phone, but nothing seems to be syncing or working at all. Even logging in never seems to work properly. Just lots of spinning icons & no response from Firefox browser/account.

Also the wording on the verification emails I received is absolutely awful & needs to be rewritten in my opinion, as they leave you with no clue what to do next?

If anyone at Firefox is listening, please contact me with some step by step clear instructions of how to resolve the current issues I'm facing trying to login, sync, reset settings, etc....

Thanks, I'm not sure why you've made having an account so cumbersome, awkward & unfriendly. It feels like your design goes against your company ethos.

If any other user have any help or advice your knowledge is appreciated.

Is there a way on Firefox for android to use my fingerprint to authenticate my login to a website? I have a galaxy s22 and am using Firefox version 106.1.0. Right now I just go to the webpage and it lets me select a username and password to log in and I would rather it ask me for a fingerprint before letting me just log in.

Thanks

I would like to see the desktop version of web sites on my tablet by default. FF lets me choose desktop view manually for specific pages when I open them, but I shouldn't have to do that each time. Is there a way to make it permanent?

I have your mobile app on my Android phone. I'd love to know is there any way to get rid of Google and just use your app for roaming and wifi and setting's. I never feel secure with Google, I've been ripped off by putting my bank card saved by Google. I'd be willing to pay to get the security I desire

I used to use something like file:/// to get the root dir listing. I could then go to subdirs and read files. It appears that Firefox now only accesses files it downloads and it won't download HTML files. Is it possible to do the old actions?

Some URLs required Java script for opening. Unable to attend the same . Message is seen Java script is disabled. In Settings menu not seen any Java script item. Please suggest how I can get Java script

It would be nice if Firefox supported dual screens on Android. I have a Surface Duo and the other browsers allow me to run one tab on each screen. There's an option in each of the browsers to "open tab on other screen" so you can do side by side browsing. Firefox doesn't have this feature.
