I've tried disabling it with the secret menu and it makes no difference. Seeing as Mozilla don't give a singular toss about the needs of their neurodivergent users I want to install an old version of firefox for android with a version of the UI that doesn't make me want to self harm. I know how to disable android updates but not install an old version safely. How do I do this?

Attached a screenshot of the new UI. As an aside if anyone can recommend the drugs that the people who designed and approved this ugly tosh are on I'd love to know what they are, must be good stuff for them all to make decisions this asinine.

Fennec F-Droid 142 has problems loading pages on Android 16 QPR2 beta 1

Ever since the Fennec F-Droid 142 update, Fennec has trouble loading pages properly, even when you currently have Internet access. This happens when you try to access any page directly from the home page and from the status bar from within the app, and the page tries to connect but completely stalls with loading as a result. This issue is not affected by the in-app mini browser view that pops up when tapping a link in another app to preview in Fennec or when you have any other app open that uses the Android System WebView (or in most cases, any WebKit based browser, as it doesn't have to be the Android System WebView most the time for this bug to go away!) for loading content, which in fact this strange bug in Fennec will go away as a result.

This issue is only addressed in Fennec F-Droid 142 and does not affect any other forks of Firefox or even the proper upstream versions of Firefox where this issue does not occur. This issue only occurs every time after restarting your Android device, in fact the one that I'm using is a Google Pixel 8 Pro.

I have also reported this issue directly to Google engineers so that they know what might be going on. Given that I'm on a beta version of Android 16 (QPR2 beta 1), this is to be expected. Thank you all so much as hopefully someone at Mozilla will have a small patch ready for when Fennec 143 goes into testing pretty soon!

Collections bookmarks on the Firefox for Android homepage. I have Firefox sync. I have many regular bookmarks. Collections bookmarks from Android or obviously not available or synced with my Firefox for desktop. Are they synced or backed up at all anywhere? I cannot find them other than inside Collections. If I uninstall Firefox on my Android, Google Pixel phone and reinstall it will everything in the homepage collections be lost?

I use Firefox Android and Bitwarden Password Manager.

When I try to generate a passkey for some website Firefox asks me for the device to store the passkey. The only suitable Option is "This Device". When I tap it, i am asked for authentification (Fingerprint). After Authentification the website gives me a success message and the whole process is complete but the passkey isn't stored anywhere.

In every other browser on android I am asked for the entry in Bitwarden where the passkey should be stored. On windows this works with Firefox

Is it intended to work only when passkeys are stored in Firefox itself? At least a hint that it doesn't work with external Password Managers would be helpful - lost passkeys are a pain

Early this morning, the Play Store notified me there was an update for Firefox. I went to my Play Store account and downloaded the new update. After the download, I tried opening Firefox by tapping on the icon. Firefox tried to open but immediately closed. This keeps happening, even now. I did get one message from my phone saying "this version of Firefox is not compatible with your phone". Never had any problems like this before.

Galaxy A14 5G, Firefox 142.0.1

The products that are displayed in the thumbnail images in the Google shopping search results are tiny (microscopic). Opera and DuckGo display normal sized images.

Does anyone know if there's a setting in Firefox that can be used to make the thumbnails display properly?

I'm trying to add Desmos Graphing Calculator to the bookmarks on the homepage. I have that setting turned on but Desmos doesn't appear even though I have it bookmarked. In fact, when I bookmark Desmos, it removes websites from appearing on the bookmarks homepage. I have a feeling it's because I hit "remove" on the bookmark on the homepage instead of hitting "delete" on the bookmark in the bookmarks folder, but then how do I undo that?
