Firefox pour Android Support Forum

As per the title, but only on a few websites, Firefox gets stuck in a neverending loop of trying to load. The page never shows at all, just a white screen and a rapidly moving loading bar at the top of the screen that gets 90% of the way across to the right then restarts.

I've tried clearing the cash, browsing history, opening the pages in incognito, etc, etc, nothing seems to work.

I have problems logging into digital account for national newspaper app (inews.com)on my phone. I can log in fine on my PC (using identical usename & pwd.) Problem seems to be either Firefox or tinypass.com. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestions? Would be grovellingly grateful for any advice.

I am experiencing an issue where the Firefox browser on my Xiaomi Redmi 13C device running the HyperOS Android 14 operating system is consuming a very high amount of system resources, particularly CPU and RAM. This is causing my device to heat up significantly and draining the battery life at a faster rate.The specific problems I'm facing are: 1.Firefox requires special permissions and settings to function properly on my Xiaomi Redmi 13C device with HyperOS, such as exempting it from battery restrictions or granting it "autostart" permissions. Without these settings, the app crashes or doesn't work correctly. 2.However, when I grant these special permissions to Firefox, the app then starts consuming an excessive amount of CPU and RAM resources, much more than my other browsers like Chrome or Brave. 3.According to the system monitor, the Firefox processes are consuming the following resources: RAM 372M, CPU 39.0% Process "org.mozilla.firefox:tab12" RAM 742M , CPU 20.0% Process "org.mozilla.firefox" 4.This high resource consumption by Firefox leads to my Xiaomi Redmi 13C device overheating and the battery draining faster, negatively impacting the overall user experience. I have tried various troubleshooting steps, such as clearing the app's cache and data, using a lighter version of Firefox, and checking for updates, but the issue persists. I would appreciate if the Firefox support team could investigate this problem and provide any guidance or solutions to resolve the high system resource usage on my Xiaomi Redmi 13C device running the HyperOS Android 14 operating system.

This is rediculous. A past post said "oh you can just chose desktop mode" but this does not work. youtube.com will consistently redirect to m.youtube.com even when I delete the m. AND have desktop mode on

Hello,

I'm not able to upload files to certain websites using Firefox on Android.

When selecting a file for the phone's file manager, the file upload simply not starting.

However, Firefox on iOS doesn't have that issue.

Firefox version used is the latest one and it is the one from Google Play.

Tried another browser and it works great.

Firefox is using a large amount of battery while idle. You can see my app runs open a lot of the day, but not in use much. It has drained 20 percent of one days battery, and I am watching YouTube videos on another app (Grayjay btw check it out!) and it has used far less battery. If I set Firefox into a sleeping state, the app still drains a lot of battery. When in deep sleep,it stops draining as much power, but then Android keeps auto pushing their own browser to be my primary browser. I'm not sure what to do in this case, as it's too much of a hassle to have links not auto open in Firefox when in deep sleep. This excessive battery drain doesn't make sense, and I was wondering if there was any fix for this. Thanks for taking the time.

I really like this app. I always use it on desktop also but after a few last updates I noticed that battery usage of this app increased a lot and the percentage is very high. 1 hour screen time on youtube was 4% battery usage but on the firefox side it was 17 min / 11% battery usage. If you fix this It will be perfect for me. Here are the screenshots with different days. And I'm using sync feature and ublock addon. I always close the opened apps and I use deep sleep feature on my samsung device. And I forced to close the app. For now I stop using firefox for test purposes.

Hi. I have to sign in related problems.

I can't Sign in to my work planning website: tjeps.g4s.dk/ESS/. It works fine on Firefox for Windows but on Android I get a new Sign in formular every time i try to sign in. Works on Chrome for Android.

The mandatory Authenticator app in Denmark for all public services "MidID" is not supported on Firefox for Android. Works on Firefox for Windows. This is a huge problem if you wan't Danish users. Also works on Chrome for Android.

I wan't to leave the Google Chrome browser but I am kinda forced not to.

I haven't logged in for quite a while. When I tried to login today, the password was automatically added via the "Saved Passwords", and i was able to log in, although I recognized it as an old password, and It was different that what I currently show in my third party password manager.

When i tried the password from third party password manager, it was rejected.

I tried to change it in my Firefox password database. The odd thing during the process was that when Firefox automatically added the Firefox database stored password to the current password to be changed field, it added the latest password, the same one that is stored in my third party password manager, not the old password that it filled in on the login page.

Dear Sir

I can not open Firefox Support mozilla in my Tablet ? Would you please give me the instructions ?

Thank you . Regards .

I am using Samsung S23 with the latest One UI and Android 14. Samsung's built-in browser has a neat feature where you can open YouTube or Reddit links in the apps installed on the device instead of viewing them in the mobile version of the website in the browser. I assume that Firefox has the same functionality called "Open links in apps" in the settings, but I tried all the available options and neither YouTube or Reddit links are automatically opened in their respective apps, nor is there a button anywhere to force them to open in the apps. Am I doing or assuming something wrong, or is this a bug?

Out of nowhere, the browser stopped when I was browsing and the pages started showing slowness. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

streaming websites taking too much time to open. Example - YouTube, ZEE5, YT music, JioCinema etc. I can login to Netflix and explore everything but I can't play video because of firefox's video player problem. Social media X's video is not auto playing. Usually I do use Max 10 tabs. My phone is at Android 14. I have a better internet so there's no net speed Problem.

I have had this problem on two separate midrange samsung phones now: after about an hour of browsing, firefox slows down considerably. Pages take a long time to load and tapping input registers erratically, sometimes i tap a link and after a few seconds a different link opens, as though the tap was registered from a different spot on the screen. This is happening even on a brand new phone, and after emptying the cache. I wish I could keep using this app because of privacy concerns but it is genuinely unusable for me now. This problem has cropped up in the past half a year

Firefox just used almost a GB by just opening it! I only typed a Google search, and the next moment my phone tells my I'm out of data!

Note that this is foreground data, not background data. I googled and found answers about media playing in the background, but I haven't watched anything recently, so no streaming link should be active. I installed Ublock origin so I hope that might help.

Attach is my Firefox data usage for the past week of barely using it, except for an occasional Google search.
