I miss two features from using Chrome on Android. Your help file says "double tap with a single finger to zoom" should work, but double tapping to zoom in or out doesn't work. At least not on my phone. But it does work in Chrome.

The other features is to swipe down at the top of a page to refresh it. I use this feature a lot and feel like it would be pretty easy to implement.

Without the zoom working I will probably switch back to Chrome. Which is unfortunate because I use Firefox on my desktop.

As of this evening, Firefox for Android no longer opens links from webpages. This was working just fine yesterday, but any attempt to solve the issue has resulted in failure.

  • I can still open links manually by copy-pasting them into a new tab.
  • I have tried disabling all add-ons, to no effect.
  • I discovered this through my regular browsing, but I have also tested a random Google search page, as well as various links in Mozilla Support.
  • Javascript appears to be unaffected.

Current version is Firefox for Android 106.1.0.

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?

Since the last update the Android status bar (top bar with the notifications, time, WiFi, battery info, etc) disappears when start browsing in the light mode. When launching the Firefox app everything is OK but as soon I start browsing the icons on the bar just turn white. ( Please see the images below) Before the last update it worked well. Any suggestions to solve this issue?

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

Firefox unusable after visiting theguardian

I've been a long time Firefox (and Navigator before that) user in all platforms, so it's only natural I'm using it on mobile.

When visiting theguardian.com, firefox freezes, stops rendering and causes the whole phone to stutter.

Procedure: - visit theguardian.com - scroll the home page, open some news in tabs - try scrolling further down and/or switching to tabs with news

What happens: - guardian home page, as well as other pages stop rendering and are blank above and below the viewport (see attached screenshots includ9ng screenie of this page. yes, I'm writing this again, had to kill FF) - tabs with news don't render at all (are blank) - when minimizing firefox, whole phone stutters. - usually, after some minimizings and maximizings, firefox renders ONE news tab. - sometimes only killing FF helps

The phone is fairly recent with the latest Snapdragon 8 and 12 gigs of ram.

Yes, I disabled all plugins and cleared the cache and all data.

I recently applied to transfer colleges and some of them had an application portal. When I click a link on mobile and the destination needs me to sign in to an account to access it, Firefox keeps automatically directing me to sign in to this one portal account instead of my regular Google account. This only happens on mobile. I can't figure out how to stop it.
