Dear Mozilla Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to provide feedback regarding the data usage of Firefox, Firefox Beta, and Firefox Nightly on my Android device.

I have noticed that a significant amount of data is being consumed by these applications, even when I am not actively using them or have not made any specific changes to their settings. This has raised concerns for me, as I strive to manage my data usage effectively.

I would appreciate it if you could look into this issue and provide any insights or solutions that may help users like myself. Additionally, if there are any settings or features that can help reduce data consumption, I would be grateful for your guidance.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your attention

Android 14, One UI 6.0, Samsung S22+

Firefox is using a large amount of battery while idle. You can see my app runs open a lot of the day, but not in use much. It has drained 20 percent of one days battery, and I am watching YouTube videos on another app (Grayjay btw check it out!) and it has used far less battery. If I set Firefox into a sleeping state, the app still drains a lot of battery. When in deep sleep,it stops draining as much power, but then Android keeps auto pushing their own browser to be my primary browser. I'm not sure what to do in this case, as it's too much of a hassle to have links not auto open in Firefox when in deep sleep. This excessive battery drain doesn't make sense, and I was wondering if there was any fix for this. Thanks for taking the time.

Firefox sideloaded to Nvidia Shield - Controller doesn't work! (It works fine on Vivaldi)

Hello All, For some unknown reason, the browsers available on Play Store for Nvidia Shield are crap - so far I've not found any that allow me to easily sync bookmarks etc between Shield/PC/Mobile.

I therefore tested and found Opera and Vivaldi sideloaded to my Nvidia Shield TV Pro both worked perfectly.

I wanted to use test Firefox as I was about to use this as my main preferred PC/mobile browser, but first I wanted to check it all worked OK.

I was able to sideload and set up Firefox, but as soon as I open a webpage the Controller stopped working.

How can this be fixed please?

Please don't suggest a browser that's intended for AndroidTV on the Shield Play Store - they are all crap due to the reasons I mentioned, the controller with Right Joysick acting as mouse pounter works perfectly on Opera and Vivaldi, so I don't understand why this it doesn't work on Firefox.

I hope this can be fixed/resolved as I would like to use Firefox as an alternative.

Thanks and regards!

Whenever I try to login to Pocket, no matter the method, it always reloads and boots me back to the login page again. There is no error message or indication of anything wrong with the login otherwise. Attempting to reset my password doesn't help, as I receive no reset email in my inbox or spam folder, although I do receive "new sign in to pocket" alerts through my email. I've tried logging in on different devices and browsers, so this is likely an account issue, but I don't know how this would happen. I've messed with my account associated email before though, if that would affect it. This has been a problem for a year or so I believe.
