Firefox for Android Community Forum

Browsing on firefox mobil gets very hot and laggy super quickly, brosing shouldn't be a heavy workload, but only in firefox my phone heats up and get lag super quickly until it became unbearable in terms of lag and temperature, after some searching I found out that this was a common issue and why didn't Mozilla fix this, it's a major known issue

When viewing Bookmarks > Desktop Bookmarks, only the parent folders are displayed (screenshot 1) and one of them has to be tapped to display the subfolders within that parent folder. However, when editing a bookmark, all the parent folders are expanded, displaying every subfolder as well (screenshot 2). It's an absolute nightmare to look at and a pain navigate. It would be more helpful if editing worked the same as viewing.

When switching to another app from Firefox and then switching back to firefox, the webpage reloads. This is not a memory issue, I have enough RAM and it happens even if I only have 1 tab open. This is a major pain when I need to enter a 2FA code and need to swith apps to get the code. Or if I'm watching a YouTube video and get a call, the youtuve page reloads after the call has ended. Please suggest how to fix this.

The Chromebook is slow anyway. I have searched the web and settings on the Chromebook and in apps. I cannot find any Startup controls or way of stopping several apps from loading. I use Linux elsewhere and am at least half savvy. it's hair pulling time...

While browsing www.youtube.com, the site is not running smoothly. When I'm scrolling in the YouTube homepage, it's like cutting in the middle. On the other hand when watching YouTube shorts, when scrolling to a new video, it's like jumping and then loading, which seems extremely inconvenient. Overall the YouTube site is not working properly in Firefox mobile (Android 13). Note: I have tried the cookie delete option. Still persistent.

My device is Tecno pova 5g (TECNO LH8n) The chrome browser works really well in this phone but Firefox is laggy the pages load slower & sluggish despite of 120hz display it only support 60hz.

The browsing experience is also laggy the navigation in twitter is so laggy but when i use chrome its fine i hate chrome i have always been loyal to firefox in computer if this is slow in android i will still choose to use it once loyal always loyal.

I am king of my own kingdom willing to invest in firefox wellfare. never remove ublock origin from his position he is one of my greatest knight.

Firefox beta usually works OK but random webpages either take ages to load or even hang indefinitely. Most of the responses I've seen on this subject simply ask for more info re websites, extensions etc but other browsers don't have these problems, so it looks like a core Firefox thing.

Translation extension on firefox doesn't have an option for translating Chinese. I downloaded all the available languages and Chinese was not among them however I have found in the past that Chinese is the language which I most often come across sites,web pages, apps,etc written in and needing translated into English.

Ever since I had my volla phone with android 10 OS the fennec browser keeps shutting down in the middle of browsing. It happens to any page at any time whether in normal or private browsing. The times seem to vary from 10 mins to 1 hour of browsing, usually not much more. The version of fennec is 91.2.0 (build#912120) My volla phone is volla phone x serial no. GX290PRO0015214 build no. QQ3A.200805.001 Regardless of age or updating it has always done it and ideally it should not. The fix should ideally be more than just have you tried upgrading versions, unless its a known bug and a fix is available. Thanks in anticipation.

I tried to open this streaming video from CBS News. It won't open on Firefox but it does play on Chrome. Both browsers are updated to the latest version. (Android)
