I'm having an issue with Firefox on Android. On certain websites (e.g., Yahoo News, Calscape.org, Google search results--with Goggle Search Fixer add-on enabled), I can scroll down the page without issue, but scrolling slowly back up toward the top of the page with downward drags of my finger is only responsive half of the time. That is, I can only scroll back up with every-other downward swipe/drag of my finger. This odd behavior does not happen with other mobile browsers (I'm on Android 13 and using a Galaxy A53 5G). Any suggestions?

Hello.

Logging in has been an issue amongst other things. Please help!

For my main email address, TravisHoule@gmail.com

It has been impossible to login. On other accounts after doing a forgot search and setting my password, your application has stated the password that had literally just been created, did not work as a credential.

Lately, my network has seen many many attacks. Though right now it seems a barebones router has been cleaned and a laptop, in an attempt to even download Firefox 64 for Windows, has been impossible from your website using the Android Firefox App. Is my phone hacked such that it is not at the correct url for your website?

Secondly the device started downloading a tar - that was stopped. (Note, all of this is just to use a clean install of windows and. Firefox browser (to be transferred by phone to the laptop)

Next, a new Sync account was created. This was to create a collection to assume a new user agent such that a tar download would not be initialized first.

To me, this seems all in error. The version or versions of applications that have been downloaded, must all be wrong, and must all be doing this on purpose? It seems as if nothing is going right as to looking to fix the hacked network on hand, per se.

Chrome 114.0.5735.61 Firefox Version is 113.2.0

Good morning - I wanted to set up two-factor authentication with your browser for security reasons. A code comes up that one uses with one's phone. I connected with it, but I couldn't finish setting up the 2FA. Here's the problem: My Samsung Note 20 Ultra has fingerprint scanning on the screen. Since I bought it, I tried using the fingerprint feature, but it is a beast to get my prints scanned and then it can hardly ever scan my print successfully. So I gave up using fingerprints altogether. So I scan your code, and it wants me to do the whole fingerprinting thing with my phone in order to set it up. It doesn't give me the option to use the security that I did choose to use with my phone. Please advise how I can get 2FA without doing all of this. Thanks. Ritva

Hello,

I choose to use FireFox when viewing video content. Only I have this persistent issue when I'm watching/listening a video/podcast and I need to goto a different Tab/Page or use an App or perform a different task, when I return to the tab with paused video it will reload and then the video page will refresh or re-open back to the video list/menu. This causes me to lose my position in the timeline and must find my place again manually. I've noticed this happens after a certain amount of time has passed, not much though, like 60 seconds or so, maybe more. This is frustrating and time consuming and I've noticed this doesn't occur in many chromium based browsers. That said, I strive to avoid google altogether and would rather stick it out with Firefox.

Thank you for reading my question, any advice is appreciated.

113.1.0 (Build #2015950737), 52a200d213+ GV: 113.0.1-20230511191846 AS: 97.4.1 2023-05-15T18:19:10.974886
