Everytime I try to save an Image or video file, Firefox on Android just says download failed without explaining how or why.

I've tried clearing the cache. I've tried clearing download and search history. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app.

I don't know what else to do.

When I open the translation function on a foreign language website, such as a Japanese website, click on a web page and jump to other pages with the same domain name, the translation function will not synchronize the translation page. This is a bit unscientific and I hope it can be improved.

Unless I'm mistaken, the Android Firefox app used to have group tabs and was replaced by Collections. Personally, I find it less user friendly and requires more clicks while ending up with a worse version of what Group Tabs accomplished. It essentially operates as a weird mix of Group Tabs and Bookmarks while being worse than both.

Cons of Collections:

  • There is no differentiation between tabs in a collection and not in a collection.
  • There is no quick swapping between tabs in a collection.
  • There is no option to Close all tabs in a collection but there is one to Open all tabs. This just looks messy.
  • Collections can only be opened from Homepage, not the Tabs screen.
  • Saving a collection requires long-press, select tab(s), tap Collection icon, then select a Collection. Group tabs requires longpress, select multiple, tap group icon OR drag and stack tabs.

Pros of Collections:

  • Neatly stored on Homepage instead of taking up a Tab slot on Tab page. (which could be fixed be programming group tabs ability to be stored on Homepage and re-opened with option).

All in all it is just a 5/10 feature in functionality. Even less so when taking into account that Android Firefox also has Bookmarks and Shortcuts. Please go back to drawing board on this one, it's really one feature I miss about Chrome (and what I thought Firefox used to have).

I am aware that native casting exists in FF (and would have enabled it IF ONLY ABOUT:CONFIG STILL EXISTED). Are there any plans to enable it (e.g. via a setting) or is there an extension to achieve it? Either that or PLEASE bring back about:config. Google Home is a trainwreck but VLC casts flawlessly. Thanks.

Every so often (about 5 times a day?) when I tap the screen, Firefox initiates a page refresh as if I've swiped down from the top of the page. The refresh icon appears fully pulled down, and if I catch it before I release my finger, I can swipe back up to cancel the refresh. It seems to happen on some sites more than others, but I can't find a pattern or reproduce it reliably (maybe it happens more on sites that don't scroll down so the page is always at the top?). I managed to catch a video of it happening, but I don't see a place to upload it.
