Firefox for Android Support Forum

Since updating to Android 14, I have had this issue twice now. I notice that my phone has way less battery than normal at the end of the day. When I check what has used all of the battery, I see that firefox has used over 10% with only like 3 minutes of screen on time. Reinstalling the app seems to fix it, but I don't want to keep reinstalling.

Firefox v 98.2.0 Android 10

When viewing an image in landscape position, when I tap and drag up on the screen to enter full screen mode a horizontal bar appears at the bottom of the screen (not the Android navigation bar). This doesn't happen when using DuckGo or Chrome. How do I get rid of the bar at the bottom of the screen?

Example: https://www.foundsf.org/images/7/7e/19-2-Vallejo-wharf-from-east.jpg

On some sites that provides video content player is not expanded to the full screen. So I click the 'Enter full screen' button, video is expanded, but not to the full screen - there is a gray stripe on the left (see the screenshot attached). This gray stripe is an area of the screen where all sorts of icons are normally displayed (notifications, watches, battery, etc). This gray stripe looks bad and annoying.

What can I do to make video full screen on all sites?

Example page where video is expanded to the full screen as expected: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHts3cLtvNY

Example page where video is not expanded to the full screen as expected (with a gray stripe): https://m.lords4.seriahd.ru/triller/823-po-tu-storonu-smerti.html

When I click the address bar and start typing some phrase (any search phrase, e.g. 'how to train a dragon') there are no search suggestions displayed. So I have to type all the phrase instead of typing just the first 1-2 words. This is annoying... I have search suggestions enabled in the settings, so what can I do to actually make it work?

When I have typed a few words in the Firefox search bar, I can't find a way to select an individual word to cut, copy or delete it. I have to move the cursor to the word end and backspace. I'm using SwiftKey keyboard on a Samsung s20, Android 12, FireFox 99.2

In textboxes such as this one, I can select individual words. Its only a problem with single line text fields such as the search bar, Google search bar, duckduck , name entries, etc.

Everything i play a video it flips the screen horizontally when i want it vertically. I've read about "about:config" but that does nothing. I've read about taping 5 times on the Firefox logo to unlock debug menu, that did unlock it but didn't give me the option i needed.

Is there a way to have the video play without automatically flipping the screen horizontally? Surely there is that seems like a massive oversight if you cannot.

Hopefully someone can help, thanks !

I've noticed that the autocapitalize attribute of form inputs on a site I use frequently is ignored by Firefox for Android. Although the inputs' autocapitalize attributes are set to "words," the virtual keyboard does not capitalize the first letter of words. Autocapitalize is enabled for my virtual keyboard. The autocapitalize attribute works on Chrome.

In the browser compatibility section of the autocapitalize article on developer.mozilla.org, it notes that "From version 83: this feature is behind thedom.forms.autocapitalize preferences (needs to be set to true). To change preferences in Firefox for Android, visit about:config." Unfortunately, about:config seems to be disabled in the release/stable versions of Firefox for Android, and I don't want to use Beta or Nightly.

There is a feature request, but it hasn't been active in eight months.

Is there a workaround to get autocapitalization working in Firefox for Android Release?

I get the error: Video format or MIME type is not supported Most of the fixes i have seen apply to desktop but this seems to persist even for the mobile browser. I'm hoping that this is something Firefox fixes on their end to avoid having the users install their own fixes all the time, if possible for ALL platforms. It's just not right that we need to do our own individual workarounds when something as basic as playing a video should already be functional in the first place. Thank you.

Hello Is there a some way to install add-on which not belongs to recommended? I'm a OGAME player and this game supports very helpful add-on called Antigame Reborn. Playing without it is weak. Of course it working great on Windows FF version, unfortunately on mobile - not. Why you blocking such possibility?

I've used FF forever and am using FF Bet on my android now. Please please PLEASE tell me how to STOP THE PAGES FROM REFRESHING. I'm a little frustrated....... Thanks in advance.

I decided to finally give the update a go on my phone since my account didn't want to relog back in. The size of the app got a bit bigger didn't it? I have yet to get a new phone, still on this Motorola, getting close to being 8 years old. Things work pretty well still, but I am running on fumes when it comes to storage space.

Not only is the new UI on Firefox... Kinda bad. I don't understand why the change had to happen to begin with, but the size increase isn't too... older devices friendly.

The reason why I'm still on this phone, is because it has been working well as is. If it's still working, why change it? We don't need constantly ever changing new things, themes and so on, some people get tired of it, especially when every single app out there starts blending together thematically, instead of keeping their own styles. Anyway, might have to find a different, lite-er browser for my phone for now. Been using Firefox for ages.

My ex roommate is mirroring my emails n my phone's and he does not have permission to do so. I've told him repeatedly to stop n he isn't allowed to do it but he won't. He delete pictures, gets into all my thing, watches private videos n does illegal activity by stealing identity n police are aware of it but he still is mirroring mine. My maps shows I have left my house when I have been home all day. how do I get him out of my phone's n my accounts.
