Firefox for Android Community Forum

I keep getting unwanted [expletive] like news stories I don't want on android Firefox I DONT WANT THIS [expletive]. GET IT OFF MY PHONE AND OFF MY APPS!!!! !!!!? O don't want to see this [expletive] whenever I open the app. Fix it.

I was able to sign in to my account for Firefox and I got my bookmarks back; the odd thing is Mozilla tries to put a bunch of them on the home page, and I can't get rid of them. Also in the edition of Firefox I downloaded, the default search engine that they set up is Google. Unbelievable. So I changed that to Firefox as the default search engine. There some "sponsored" bookmarks on the home page I can't get rid of. And I cannot figure out hosw to get my Collections back on the main page. I loved that Collections feature on the home page.

Last week my collections just disappeared from the home screen of Firefox. I used them as bookmark folders, so now it's quite inconvenient. Is it a bug or a new feature, how do I access my collection in Android?

Newest update removed my bookmarks from the home page and put what it wanted on it. I can't add the ones I want. How do I add the ones I want back to the home page on my mobile. Last version no problem. This Newest version is bad (being polite) ;)

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?

Hello, due to problems with the Firefox Beta (for Android), I switched to the stable version. However, with this version I also encounterd some problems, mainly regarding the homepage: In the beta version collections are displayed (at the bottom) of the homepage. In my stable version, I cannot see the collections at all. I can still add sites to collections, and when doing so, all my collections are shown but I don't know how to access them. I could not find anything about it in the settings. Is this the regular behavior? If not, how can I change it?

Best regards

I've previously asked this question but it has been archived without any action.

I have the current Android Firefox installed, my homepage setting has 'recently visited' UNCHECKED, but the homepage is adding all my recently, or possibly 'frequently visited' visited, pages! Swipe sideways to show even more of them. The only thing that should be on my homepage are shortcuts - things that I wanted to pin - since the specifically unticked 'recently visited'.

This is a privacy issue as well as just a bug. Please fix this urgently.

I've also put this on my review on Play store as I consider it something that needs attention...

The browser is very nice and fast, but Firefox only shows 8 of your favorite sites on the home screen. Please increase this visibility to 30. The home screen has a huge screen, but there are unnecessary shortcuts like tabs are pasted, and people don't use them anyway. There is also the option to add tabs under the settings shortcuts, but instead of adding tabs when returning to the home screen, a home shortcut can be added, and it would be more useful.

Previously, I had my firefox homepage configured to not show shortcuts or recently visited websites, as I feel it is clutter. However, recently, shortcuts have re-appeared, with no option to disable/hide them in the homepage settings (Settings > Homepage only shows Stories, Wallpaper, and app Opening Screen; see attached image). Wondering if this is a feature that was removed (if so, would love to see this reverted), if it is a bug that needs fixing, or I'm missing something.

I'm unhappy with the new version of the app, 143.0, which my app was just updated to. Specifically, the appearance of the tab homepage. The empty space previously occupied by the search bar at the top of the screen, and the lack of features such as recently opened tabs, or the "Jump Back In" box, both of which have been removed in favour of irrelevant stories. The ability to turn back on features like that would be greatly appreciated.

In addition, updating seems to have completely cleared out my app's history, now only showing me my synced history from other devices.

For some reason after an update I lost the ability to access my collections. I can add new pages to my collection but have no way to access them. The option to add it to my homepage is now gone.
