Hello, Sometimes my browser is not reponsive when i open it. There is no apparent reason for why it does this. It doesn't load the last opened pages and does not load when i type a query. I have to reboot it several times sometimes before i can use the app again. This is not a major issue as i just use another browser in that case but you can consider this information as a datapoint for "potential bugs". This is exclusive to the app and not the browser.

Happy surfing :)

weird address/search bar autofill behavior on android

Hi everybody, I'm having this weird issue on Firefox for Android that appeared approximately when the last UI change (changing the three-dot-menu) appeared, but I wasn't able to pin it down to any specific point in time.

The issue is that when using the search (/address) bar and hitting enter, instead of the default behavior which is forwarding my search string to my default search engine, a more or less random URL (based on approx the first three letters of my search prompt and then some miraculous autofill) populates the search bar. I have to specifically select an autofill suggestion with the search symbol to avoid this, but autofill doesn't always show up, so opening a new tab is the only thing I can do then.

I'm unsure how to describe this, but I'll give an example: when typing "booker prize" and hitting enter, instead of searching for it, a more or less random website I never have knowingly used and that seems depreacated (https://bookerproxy-new.lot.com/service.php) is autofilled. I can turn off autofill completely in the settings, but then it won't do any autofill at all, including for websites I have bookmarked or visit frequently. So it seems that this autofill feature just is having a bug where it's overly aggressive, but I can't say why.

Also, the search bar has been really slow lately, so actually, 9/10 times, when typing "booker prize" (and the keyboard actually prove this), what reaches the search bar is only something like "bookr pe". This issue isn't present anywhere else on the device, neither in other Firefox text fields nor in other browsers' search bars.

So yeah, I don't know what to do but Firefox on Android has been only good for pulling up sites I've clicked on directly, either as shortcuts on the start menu or links from other apps.

If you have any idea how to fix this behaviour or at least how to trace it's origin I'd be grateful.

I am a big fan of firefox but i see some difference between firefox and chromium based browser that is Smoothness. All those scroll and swipe are beautifully smooth on Chromium based browser but in Firefox, it stutter and feeling visual lag. I know that Firefox is made by different engine but on IOS it's feels smooth but on Android it's sluggish. I hope you guys find a way to fix those problem.

Occasionally (it already happened three times today) when i'm browsing and switching between tabs, one tab will become an image of its contents (as in - no links work, can't scroll vertically or horizontally) and the others become grey. Trying to reload the pages or open new ones doesn't work, they never load. Turning the browser off by going to the phone's home menu and closing Firefox in the recent applications view doesn't solve the problem, it only closes any private tabs but the issue persists when opening any new tab or preexisting ones. The only way to fix the problem is by force stopping the app. I've cleared the cache, it didn't solve the problem, and reinstalling seemed to work for a few days but now the problem is back. For reference, my add-ons/extensions are: Ghostery, NoScript and UBlock Origin.
