Hello!

In Firefox android, sometimes when I press the address bar, instead of coloring and deleting the whole address, so I can type new address, it goes into some editing mode, where when I start typing, it starts continuing the address already there. What is this extremely annoying feature? I share a screenshot where an address is colored. The grey "normal" part, and the purple part where the cursor is when I start typing.

Hey,

I recently fully switched over to Firefox, outside a few minor things it's working beautifully. However since a few weeks i'm having huge problems with the text-fields within the browser, like Google Search and various other sites. I switched from Stable to Beta, no luck. To prove it still exists, I used the nightly build. It deletes whole pieces of text when pressing space and when backspacing the word sometimes returns. It's very unusual behaviour, but other browsers dont have it.

I'm using a Pixel 9 Pro, latest update (BP1A.250505.005.C1). I tried with Google Keyboard and Microsoft Swiftkey, both give the same issues and it's honestly not usable anymore for me. Below there is a screen recording showing the issue.

Every time I do a search for a location map, Apple maps appears as the default. How do I block Apple maps from displayed searches? I truly detest the functionality of Apple maps, and knowing my search results are filtered to prioritize Apple infuriates me to no end! Is this a virus or adware-type of situation? There is noplace within settings to tag and block certain results. I am using a Samsung Galaxy s22 Ultra with the latest version of Firefox. Thank you in advance! P.S. I don't access my email through my phone (for security reasons) so it might take several hours to check my email to reply if you have follow-up questions.

How to hide the share button in the address bar in Firefox on Android (nighly, single row bottom address bar layout). Together with reader mode and the translate button (if available) there is almost no space left for the address itself. Moving all three buttons to the menu (or at least the share button) would help a lot.

On Firefox beta for android. I prefer my address bar to show my search URL when searching. Instead it just shows my search terms, so "test" rather than google.com/q=test or something like that. I've tried editing the relevant about: config settings and this worked for a few moments but now doesn't have an effect. Anything I can do about this, as for me this is an essential feature? Cheers

I have an issue with the search bar glitching when typing. Example I type and search the phrase healthy meals, all's good no problem but when I go back to type in any more words by pressing the space bar it deletes the previous word 'meals' and if I press the delete back button until it reaches the word healthy it mangles the two words up together 'heamaels'. Not sure what's going on or how to fix it. Firefox android app.
