I have both the beta Thunderbird for Android and the k9 clients on my phone but hadn't realised they were not interchangable, so I got a surprise when I opened via the blue icon and deleted an email and there was no 'are you sure you want to delete' or deletion options dialogue on the thunderbird version. The K9 still asks to confirm delete, but the thunderbird only has three options in the settings and I cant find any setting to turn on the dialogue.

If I'm not missing something (maybe I missed an update), I suggest this needs copying over from K9.

Hi all,

I am on Firefox for Android version 133 and am trying to stop getting cookie banners. According to this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cookie-banner-reduction-firefox-android, there should be an option under Privacy and security, but no options for the cookie banner blocker exists.

I live in Canada, not sure if it is only available in certain countries?

Thanks

When using Firefox on Android for a while, attempting to use pinch to zoom on a web site will cause Android to crash, as in the screen will go black, the G logo animation will appear, and I'll be sent back to the lock screen. It's not just the app that crashes. It doesn't seem to be a full reboot as that takes longer and starts with a different animation, but some part of Android is restarting.

It's consistent but not predictable. Pinch to zoom will work on one site fine and then crash on the same site later. It seems to be a resource issue as it's unlikely to happen on a fresh instance and it becomes more likely the longer you've been using Firefox.

This has been happening for several months, since at least July. It's happened both on my old Pixel 6 Pro and my new Pixel 9 Pro. It's happened on both Android 14 and 15.

I eventually found out I could go to Settings > About Firefox > Crashes and get some debugging info, but I don't know what to do with it. I currently have 15 crashes between now and Oct 16th which all say:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Adding window failed

Clicking Share to get more info on the latest one adds:

I don't know what to do with this info. Should I file a Bugzilla report with just this? The GUID associated with the most recent one is 7a5e5497-bb62-4e3c-94fc-5c63c51d0830. I can't look it up in crash-stats.mozilla.org. Or should I assume all crash reports are automatically received? I'd still like to be able to have a Bugzilla bug to watch for progress.

Using Firefox on PC, when I move a bookmarked link to a folder and then afterwards create a new bookmark on my mobile device, it automatically sets the folder on the mobile device, to the folder I lastly moved a link too on my PC. This is frustrating, as I sometimes now bookmark something on mobile, and then cannot find it, since its basically random which folder was the last used.

I use Android for my mobile device.

I use an external torrent app LibreTorrent. When I click on magnet links, FF133 faithfully opens the external app handler. However when I tap the OK button FF very often ignores my tapping. I can hit several times with no effect. I can see a quick circle showing as I tap, so the tap is generating an event, but FF does not react to it. This happens in normal and private mode. Sometimes after a couple or perhaps a dozen or more taps, the OK event has an effect and the external app launches fine.

A very curiously I accidentally noticed that if I tap or swipe the text also showing on the dialog box before tapping OK, the first tap on OK always works! 100% reliable. Something is fishy with event handling.

Repro: FF133 + current LibreTorrent client, then tap of first magnet link at https://webtorrent.io/free-torrents

Google maps does not work even tho both the browser and gmaps site have location access and location is turned on . The problem is with firefox for android (stable version 133) . It has been like this for sometime i thought I'd just wait for it to fix itself but that's obviously not happening . Infinite loading or location not detected error . Have tried running with all protections and extension off . Do any of you have this issue ? Is there a way to fix it ? is the issue already acknowledged and worked on ?
