Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hi. When I want to bookmark a site, it says the error "invalid url." It doesn't add to the bookmarks. But when I bookmark the same site on the PC with the same profile, it adds to the bookmarks. I will help you give every data you want to check. The sites I want to add to the bookmarks do not add them on sites such as Google Twitter etc. Thank you in advance. I hope you will help.

Suggested Fixes or upgrades.

1. 1: Way to disable auto zoom on android.

Have screen zoomed up manually to see screen content on android phone. Start typing phone zoomes in to close and can not see whole field or other important info on screen I had previously zoomed in to see. every time I zoom out to see again and start typing auto zooms back to where it it difficult. Makes it difficult to be productive fighting the auto zoom feature. would like to be able to disable it, if possible. would make my life much easier as I work away from home and have to use my phone for many tasks. Prefer Desktop to avoid these issues but situation is what it is.

1. 2: Fix sort order on Bookmarks (Have in My Manuel order of importance order on desktop), on Android (sorts alphabetically). difficult to locate bookmarks

Hi !

From the history on Firefox in Android, I can remove a page from it by clicking on the little cross (cf first image). But this cross disappear when I'm trying to access to a specific page from the search bar... (cf second image). Is there a way I could remove some specific page from the history ?

The reason I'd like to do that is because when I want to access to a website present in the history, Firefox auto-fills by another website from it, which is not the one I'm interested in (and as I won't never go back on this second website, the simple way it to remove it from history !)

A very bad error has been going on for a while now. The browser no longer behaves correctly when using Google Search. For example, you search for "flowers." Then you search for something else, such as "cars." You open one of the car images from the search results. When you tap the back button or the X-button to close the image, Firefox jumps back to the previous search ("flowers") instead of returning to the car image results. It should return to the car results, not the earlier search!

Could not open Firefox App on my Android phone last night. Kept geting the message "Firefox keeps stopping", before the App had even opened.

Tried clearing cache. Tried Force Stop Tried retarting phone. Tried uninstalling Firefox app and Installing fresh Firefox App.

Nothing has worked. Still getting "Firefox keeps stopping", before the App has even opened.

Android 10 QPWS30.61-21-18-7 Firefox Version 148.0.2

I apprciate it's an old phone but the App was fine until yesterday?

Help?!

When I start to type a comment in Facebook, Firefox keeps refreshing and loosing my keyboard. Have tried disabling uBlock origin and changing tracking protection settings to no avail. Don't want to use Meta app.

Hello,

I've noticed that recently that Firefox seems to repeatedly crash on my Xiaomi phone quite frequently. It's a Xiaomi 15 Pro on HyperOS 3.0.7.0, and here are some of the crash reports:

Hi, I'm a very fan user of Firefox from the beginning.

I used to have all my password on it but I lost most of my ID's and I had a copy, but my passwords are still on your servers... it's not the problem but I'm curious if there is a solution to erase it.

Whatever, I'm on firefox android, which has save all my password and I only can delete one by one... that's wired, and I can't find solution, could you help me ?

Hello,

I sorted out my passwords for several reasons in Firefox on one device and want it to synchronize with my other devices.

Whatever I try, the passwords stay the same on my other devices. I have checked and unchecked the password synchronization box, I restarted, I even deleted the app and reinstalled, but when I sign in, it still has the same passwords.

This took a loooong time.

Why is the password synchronization not working and how can I fix this?

Thank you.

I have been using Firefox for Android and Kaspersky Password Manager for many years without a hitch until v148 of Firefox, which seems to have broken things. Has anyone else seen this problem? With KPM installed (and all the necessary permissions correctly set) whenever I visit a login page the KPM icon should appear so I could select the login and password details to automatically fill in. It no longer does this with v148. I had been in touch with Kaspersky support and they were unable to help so I re-installed v147 and everything was back working again, so I am guessing the issue is with a change in v148. Has anyone else seen (or resolved) this issue. Many thanks FYI My Android is v13 on a Pixel4a and KPM is v9.2.113.65

! when i try to save a page as pdf file it doesn't save the pictures inside. i can't save the pictures inside to .jpg files by clicking them and hold. i must open them in another page and save them in "pdf" (very big file) i can't have a look before printing (issue of spooler ?)bold text

Naturally, I am not sure, which topik summarise my problem the best, so, I ask the question here. I found out that Mozilla browser takes a lot of memory in my smartphone (like no one app else). Cleaning up the cache didn't help much, because the most part of memory is taken by the "user data". Please tell me what exactly is it, what parts it consists of and how to clean it avoiding the ability to remove anything important. Thank you for the fast answering and for operativity Korwin

Hello, I encountered an issue when using Firefox for Android. My device supports a 120Hz refresh rate, but in my Firefox for Android, only the browser UI runs at 120Hz while the web content runs at 60Hz.

Interestingly, when the menu is opened, even though the web content is covered by the menu, its refresh rate is shown to have increased to 120Hz. Then, after the menu is closed, the refresh rate reverts back.

Keyboard randomly does not disappear after changing focus out of text fields, it becomes transparent and I have to change view mode from vertical to horizontal for it to disappear.

Log in with usernames and passwords are not working properly. I had to change my emails for logging and other sites because my email was stolen. Now Firefox won't let me log in properly. And the clipboard on the Android is not synced properly with the computer for Firefox. So I had to start using Chrome.
