Firefox for Android Community Forum

I said it all in the in the opening statement... What else am I meant to say?????????? It worked fine 2 weeks ago..? But now forget it!!!!!!! What has changed....you must know ... So don't ask me just fix it!!!!!!

I gotta ask... why isn't there a setting to remove private browsing on firefox? Now yeah sure it's free security but we got add ons for that. I've always felt like private browsing and incognito stuff is just a way to go to pornhub feeling secured from criticism. That's why I quit Chrome (+ being able to watch YouTube with ads for free) so I gotta ask again... why isn't there a setting to remove private browsing on firefox?

I have a little website that tracks my location. I keep it open in a tab almost always, since I use it daily. About once a day Firefox wants me to log in again, and after that, the location info is disabled. Is there not a way to survive that I trust that site, and want it to have access to my location every time? Even better if I did not have to log in so often.

All this on a Fairphone, Android 12

On Firefox the normal Android FIDO/U2F/WebAuth/whatever it's called these days screen does not show up that lets you select if you want to auth with an on-device security key, an NFC key, or a USB key.

Instead, a custom pop-up shows which has no support for USB or NFC keys (like the YubiKey).

Could Firefox please either add support for USB/NFC security keys or just use the built-in android security key feature which already supports this. I cannot switch from Chrome without this feature because it means I cannot login to websites I use.

Hello!

Firefox on Android won't display pop-ups. I've checked privacy setting but there's no checkbox for a popup blocker. Also tried about:config but didn't find any setting to change. Any ideas on how to be sure Firefox is comfigured to allow popups? I participate on a Zoom webinar and can't start Zoom through Firefox so have to use Chrome.

Thanks!

I put in firefox as a browser. I have problems with Google Chrome. It insists on knowing anything I do. It won't allow me any privacy. Has become a nightmare with it. I have been scammed by a lot of its play store apps, and by Google it's self. Can I do anything without it interfering with anything?? It has taken over my firefox browser, and it has to have all my bank info and game info. Even if I purchase things, it has stopped them from going thru, and hid texts sent to me from my bank. It's like it's a virus, it won't let me enjoy a game or do anything without warning on putting firefox in and it stopped my emails when I made it my default, plus it stated I wasn't allowed to purchase anything if I didn't go thru it. I won't give it my card, cause I make a purchase and it either won't go thru or I have extra amounts taken. I hate Google and it either it gets away from me or I'll throw this in the river! And I don't want to hit the share data, button. Cause u then, might not receive this. I disabled while I sent.

I have a long standing Firefox account - this one. I have also recently joined Firefox relay, using a different email - the one I most want to be able to mask - however I am trying to link these two accounts, for many reasons but also because I am trying to add my other email as a backup/recovery to this account, but I keep being denied because it's an 'existing account'. Please help. (Also an unrelated but very unhelpful thing: Mozilla websites, and ONLY Mozilla websites, are currently rendering in plain html and it's *really* confusing and unhelpful. I've killed all my as blockers and it doesn't seem to be any of them. Any advice?)

Hi there,

Is the script in this product bypassing Firefox privacy fences? I do not understand what they promote, but I have not a good feeling after reading their explanation. https://confection.io/scripts/click-engage-xbox-com/.

But I hope Firefox can do something against this possible new threat.

Hello! I noticed FireFox Android now reports my real OS version but FireFox Android has auto spoofed the useragent OS version from version 122? The install was via apk through Aurora app store if that makes any difference. I would like to fix this if its an error, if the spoof has been disabled then it will obviously remain. Thanks in advance!

Hi. After your most recent update to the FireFox app on the playstore, I have noticed that the location setting on my app came enabled. Upon clearing it, it tells me that doing so will decrease the functionality of the app, and when I clear the app data the location permission is re-enabled. Is there anyway I can fix this? This is a big privacy concern for me.
