It seems that Javascript might not be enabled in Firefox on Android. I've seen old answers advising going to about:config, but there is no such target anymore. All that typing that in does is search for about:config. That's obviously not very useful.

On July 2nd, I began receiving error messages in emails that connect with Healthcare apps that I need to check settings in my browser for Javascript & turn it back on.

I read in solutions that it's automatic, but there must be a way to activate it again. I even restarted my phone hoping that would solve it.

I have some websites that require pop-ups. I cannot get them to work in Firefox on my Android phone. Google searches reference a setting under "privacy and security" where I should be able to allow pop-ups in general or for certain URLs only, but I don't have that setting option.

I have Firefox version 139.4 if that helps.

Thanks in advance, Paul

Hello,

I've noticed the apparition of a share icon over the address bar in the most recent version(s), probably since v139 or 140.

I don't mind it as such, I don't mind personally having to tap on the vertical three dots either to access it but in some situations, it is actually taking a bit more real-estate on my address bar than I'd like, in fact making reading the address url impossible.

Is there any chance it could be hidden or at least optional (in settings)?

Thank you in advance

Guys, the only issue I have is that Firefox for Android can't import/export bookmarks.html. I've tested a few others, especially one called Kiwi, and even Brave. I understand that they're Chromium based, but why can't the same functionality be built into Firefox? I think that the Sync function is too limiting. Other than that, I LOVE Firefox, have used it on PC for years and have always enjoyed the experience. It's just that I use my phone to do a great many things these days, rather than using my laptop, so the bookmark import/export feature would just make it perfect for me 😊. Also the ability to set a custom wallpaper would be nice. thanks for taking the time, have a lovely day and God bless you wherever you are... 👍

i'm an android phone user (A15) and i really don't like mobile website layouts, particularly when most websites fit elements to the screen aspect ratio instead of letting me pan around a more traditional 16:9 webpage. i've tried all sorts of user agent and javascript spoofing, but nothing really beats firefox's native "desktop site" toggle, but it sadly doesn't stay on across different tabs or sessions and i have to turn it on manually every time. it should be pretty simple to add this feature, and i'm sure that there's a lot of support for it too. thanks!
