1.syncronising in firefox mobile app is awful if you delete some tab witg your linux firefox it wont syncronise with your phone anymore and wont let you to sync manualy(the sync button will freeze) and even do if you dont do anything sync button will freeze and wont sync with linux firefox. when this happen i have to uninstall my firefox and reinstalled it.

I'm trying to log in for the first time in good while and I can't remember the passwords and don't know if I ever set up recovery key. I'd like to retrieve all my original contents

My main profile would be on an email address that's no longer in use -paolo@freshlookrenovations.com.au I do also have these: -paoloandcarissa@gmail.com -renosandfencing@gmail.com

Every so often (about 5 times a day?) when I tap the screen, Firefox initiates a page refresh as if I've swiped down from the top of the page. The refresh icon appears fully pulled down, and if I catch it before I release my finger, I can swipe back up to cancel the refresh. It seems to happen on some sites more than others, but I can't find a pattern or reproduce it reliably (maybe it happens more on sites that don't scroll down so the page is always at the top?). I managed to catch a video of it happening, but I don't see a place to upload it.

I want to avoid using Google but when I use Firefox or even Firefox Focus it still goes straight Google. Is Firefox owned by Google or its parent company now? Thanks

1. download manager is teribble, it doesnt show what percentage or of file has been downloaded or remains? It only shows when file has comlpletely downloaded. It would be way better if it show details and give control during download.

142.0.1 (Build #2016110943), 179e4da8d58fdece16dcbf164c80199917a5946e GV: 142.0.1-20250827004350 AS: 142.0.1 OS: Android 15

Crashes contantly, all the time, after several minutes use it will suddenly disappear and lose everything, tabs, etc., but crash reports are never produced. When it happens the app seems to collapse into the right lower corner of the screen, like a balloon deflating. The Firefox has been uninstalled and reinstalled several times without effect. Why, and what to do about it ?

This is a privacy issue. The fact that Firefox is set up to automatically show all pages you've viewed is a huge security flaw as well. We don't want this feature! Just look up how many people have been asking to get rid of this (for years).

Is there a simple way yet?

If yes, please let me know how. If no, I will be boycotting Firefox and will simply not use it.

Thank you for any help!

Hello everyone,

While testing some fan-made game community websites, I noticed that Firefox handles them a bit differently compared to Chrome or Edge. For example, I checked https://nullsbrawl.tech/ (not an official site, just a community project) and saw that it loads more slowly and sometimes behaves differently in Firefox.

This made me curious:

Does Firefox have different handling for script-heavy or unofficial community websites?

What tools in Firefox Developer Tools would you recommend for debugging performance issues?

Are there guidelines for developers to make such sites more compatible with Firefox?

I’d love to understand more about how Firefox manages these situations.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I love the feature of always opening tabs in a private window. One thing that was critical to my workflow was being able to convert a private tab to a regular one. In recent version I see that the button to do this is no longer where it used to be.

Does this functionality still exist and I'm just missing where it is now positioned?
