I am using an Android version 5.1 on which Mozilla Firefox version 100.3.0 runs happily. The issue is that when I start a new tab, the Open Application Menu symbol (3 dots in vertical formation) becomes a microphone symbol, thus preventing me accessing the Bookmarks among other features on the Open Application Menu.

Tapping the microphone symbol causes the Google Speak popup to open.

This is the issue, end of. It would be nice if it could be fixed.

I cannot rename saved Bookmarks. I can go through the process but after finishing, the Bookmark is NOT renamed in the Bookmarks list.

This is very inconvenient. This needs to be fixed. I am using a Samsung Galaxy A12 phone.

Another unrelated question is concerning coping and pasting URLS. I can't paste them elsewhere but I guess that needs to be addressed separetly.

So I'm currently trying to download and switch my browser on my Motorola phone to Firefox because of the newest Google tracking news, but I'm having problems. Everytime i try to download both Firefox or Firefox Focus itll go all the way to 100%, but then jump back to exactly 37% on both. this is repeated and I've been trying for about 30 minutes to figure this out. I'm hoping it's just Google play [removed] with it but i don't know. help?

Hello there,

The problem that i am getting is that when i am downloading a file from the browser , it only shows on the screen notification panel but not in the 'downloads' section of the browser. And when i pause the download, even after having downloaded more than 50 percent it would completely disappear and then i find no option to resume the download.. This is a major issue kindly help me sort it out.

Thanks !

My tabs have been ballooning like crazy because of this. I like the feature firefox has to resume browsing where you left off, however, it's been very frustrating to manage lately because of this.

Basically, say i have 10 tabs open, i close out of 5 of the tabs and then exit the app, when i reboot the app, those 5 tabs will be back open and i will have 10 tabs open once again!

Any ideas what might be up with this?

So i have the new Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, never had a tablet until now. Why is there no tablet mode variant of firefox? I LOVE the use of extensions and it's my primary phone and desktop browser, but all the other browsers, duckduckgo, chrome, samsung internet, brave, and opera have tablet modes with a bookmarks bar, full tabs, and defaults to desktop user-agents most of the time. And even with Firefox being somewhat usable on a tablet, the scaling on it causes a lot of glitches like the address bar doubling over when you go in to type another search/domain while on a website already.

I'm insanely bummed that I can't use my favorite browser that has everything i love on my tablet because they just haven't optimized it in the slightest for the large scale experience.

Take a look at the many features it has and implement some of those features in Firefox.

I have a lot of websites bookmarked on my Android, a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 128GB. Well, "bookmarked" is the wrong word. I have saved them on the homepage so that I can get to them quickly. Trouble is, every single one of them is just labeled "Firefox".

For example, I have a folder named "Gen'l Reference" with 11 items. (See attached image.) Some of them open apps and are properly labeled with the name of the app, e.g., "UnicodePad", "Translate", and "DuckDuckGo". But others link to websites, mostly with specific functions, such as Snopes.com, timeanddate.com, and emojipedia.org. All of these just show the Firefox icon and are labeled simply "Firefox". The only way I can get to the one I want is to remember where it is in the layout. How can I give them appropriate labels, with or without their own icons?
