Firefox on my Android smartphone is well synchronized with Firefox on the computer. I can see that both contain the same list of logins and passwords. When I must log in other applications, there is a notice that appears saying "unlock faierferox" followed by the sign of fingerprints. But when I try to have my fingerprint recognized, nothing happens.

What should I do?

Thanks for helping.

Firefox Android (132.0.2 & 133.0b8) regularly hang after changing to another app and then returning to Firefox

Xiaomi 14 - HyperOS 1.1.3.0.VNCMIXM - Android 15 AQ3A.240627.003

This hang is not consistent. I have been switching back and forth to get details for this thread with no issue. But very frequently when I have switched away from Firefox to another app and then returned to Firefox the app has completely frozen. I can see everything clearly but can do nothing at all (neither the web page or Firefox). I haven't yet identified a pattern.

132.0.2 has Relay and CashRewards installed. 133.0b8 is vanilla.

I'm using gesture controls on HyperOS to switch apps.

No issues with any other apps.

Is this where I report such things?

I can't figure out how to open an url like "http://fritz.box" or "192.168.178.10.1". Either Firefox starts a search or auto completes the address to "https://fritz.box". This address can not be resolved locally. If anyone happens to read this and could help me please, I just want to open the configuration page of my router. And I can't do it with Firefox for Android - so it seems. Thank you for your time!

Entering any text on Reddit or most forums using Firefox Nightly for Android forces indenting and carriage returns to be deleted. Even as I'm typing the text will jump randomly to condense into a single paragraph and add multiple spaces to indent the paragraph.

Samsung S24U, I saw the same behavior on my S22U as well, so it isn't a cache/cookies thing. I do not experience the issue with regular Firefox for Android.

San Francisco Chronicle e-paper does not display correctly in FF for Android, and often other browsers. Some pages will not scroll below the initial window, but when page is clicked and opened, then closed, the page may display correctly. Very annoying.

This has been going on for at least several weeks. SF Chron support escalated the issue to their tech dept (not on site), which claimed that the problem is FF, not them. … (read more)

Problem persists in both dark and light mode. And is not present in Google Chrome ot other applications.

(copied from another post I made elsewhere, i'm desperate for solutions)

Hi! I recently upgraded from my S22 Ultra that had zero problems with connectivity to a Pixel 9 and so far it's been great except for one issue - I can't log into some websites with Firefox

Giffgaff for example asks for human verification every time I load the site and when I try to log in it says there was a connection issue. This doesn't happen on Opera GX or Chrome, but I've compared the settings on Firefox on my S22 to my pixel and they're identical. The issue only happens on my pixel 9.

I've tried common fixes provided by Google searches but nothing has yet worked. I've also disabled all add-ons and reinstalled the app. I REALLY don't want to change browsers for this and hope that someone here has a fix!

App version: 132.0 Usual Add-ons: Ublock Origin, Dark Reader, Google Search Fixer
