Forum d’assistance Firefox pour Android

its really annoying. Unlike Firefox desktop, Firefox mobile (using nightly for the about:config) suspends tabs instantly.

When I switch to another app and go back, often the tabs reload. Or when opening another tab, the old one is deactivated and reloads when opening again.

How can I change this behavior, set the amount of open tabs to be cached until I close the browser?

I have turned on pocket on Firefox for Android. On Homepage firefox recommends some stories. However, there is no option to refresh them. From the last one week I am getting the same recommendations. Any solutions?

Hi, Firefox mobile absolutely needs a master password, to store the passwords encrypted on the device. This can then be unlocked, together with the whole app, using a biometric scanner.

KeepassDX has a perfect solution for that, look into their code and please implement this! Nearly all important apps support native locking and biometrics, but not Firefox with its built-in password storage!!

Thank you guys!

My husband stole my phone. I can provide the number, my info, our home address. His b day ss#. I just want into my phone. My texts, calls photos, web activity since he changed all passwords, and hes my legal husband for 5 year's and he took my phone i bought b4 we married.

Fire fox has misleading prompts I had went on the support site and I purposefully did NOT press "to post my question to a community forum" it has myinfo in the freaking post as i thought i was contacting support please be more clear as when you put the big purple square that says post to community if i wanted to then i would have proceeded to click the big purple box, but since I clicked get help I did not assume I would be posting to a forum, I'm glad I put the email that's already been around the world at least. Maaaaan,...thats sooo dirt! Misleading prompts sick! So can any one tell me how do I actually get in contact with actual technical supports or maybe how to contact moderators to have my information removed. I had tried to alert them to how I accidentally accessed a website with a virus to make internet safer. Now my email is posted but at least everyone knows exactly where not to go if they don't want a virus. Exclude me but it's slightly frusting so please BE AWARE THAT ALL PROMTS I'VE PRESSED☆ TO AVOID ☆ POSTING PUBLICLY ☆HAS STILL☆ POSTED MY ISSUE PUBLICLY.I' ALSO A bit frustrated because I don't see any options anywhere to access a moderator so just saying if y'all don't want your query public...oh well, it will be!Ughz gotta research how to edit now time I didn't want to waste with a warning or alert and more computer skills school I guess it serves me. TO BE CLEAR MY ISSUE IS CAN Y'ALL PLEASE MAKE THE PROMPTS MORE CLEAR AND CONCISE EXACT AND ABSOLUTELY CLEAR THATS IT'S POSTED FORUM

In delete history settings I would assume that the deletion of history option is there to avoid anyone picking up the phone (including a repairer) and seeing where one has been. I'm surprised that there isn't an option to close all tabs within say 10 minutes and 1 minute. Could this option be ae please.

I have an HP Chromebook that is up to date. Recently Firefox flashes black for a second then comes back. It does this continously while I type or scroll on websites making it very difficult to use.

I have searched and found that on Chromebooks, Firefox does not have a Safe or Troubleshoot mode. Firefox does not do this on my Android tablet (Samsung) or Android phone (S21+) just on the Chromebook. It started maybe 2 weeks ago (today is 09/05/21).

The troubleshooting issues I've seen with flashing black screens apply to Windows, etc, and not to Chromebooks or Android in general. I don't want to use Chrome, do use Duck Duck Go browser for a lot of things but for regular websites I frequent I use Firefox. It's flashed about 60 times while I've written this.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

So in the "old" Firefox on android there was a possibility to have links opened in the background. This was removed with the overhaul update and I have been missing it ever since.

Right now I'm using pocket to have the links opened in the background but pocket outright sucks, it never shows the whole proper article and reddit pages are not shown properly either, it even makes those pages unreadable and its not showing the comments.

So to this point I am about to ditch pocket again. But I want to know if Firefox will bring back the background opening or did it purposely removed it so people would use pocket more?

If Firefox is sadly not bringing it back, I do believe Firefox is no longer my go to option and sadly forced to look for a browser that still have the background option.

Please let me know if Firefox will bring this feature back in the near future or not.

Please tell me how to go back to Firefox "regular" or Ff Beta from Ff Nightly for Android.

I can't stand not being able to bookmark easily and *especially* miss adding bookmarks to my home page(s) and the endless update is interruptive. My phone is very slow as it is. 

Thanks. I am afraid to migrate Firefox "backwards" from Nightly to beta or just ordinary. I lost all my bookmarks a year ago by uninstalling Instagram which somehow wiped out Firefox as well.

Many thanks.

I stopped using my Firefox browser because the update on august 27,2021 ruined everything that made me feel safe online, how do I restore my Firefox? All my add ons are gone, all my settings are mucked up, I'm not even able to manually set everything up the way I like it because this new Firefox doesn't offer any kind of protection options. How dare Firefox developers or whoever just take away my Firefox that I use everyday for years and I set up everyone's computer that I know and their friends and families come to me to set up their computers with the Firefox browser that I had with all of my settings and customizations because it works so good for me and everyone I have introduced it to. I of,. Was the safest , user friendly way to browse online with only one place to put my trust in regarding my everything personal and important automatically hassle free. Now look at this mess! Please please please help me restore my Firefox to the way it was prior to August 27,2021 updates or changes.

When I search Google from the address / search bar in Firefox Android, the progress bar goes to about 30% and stops for a long time before loading the page.

Worse, every page I click in the search results behaves the same way.

Same behavior just opening www.google.com.

Other sites load fine, just anything that starts with a Google URL is severely hobbled.

Same on mobile and Wi-Fi. Desktop PC on same Wi-Fi network is not affected.

Firefox for mobile Android is no longer secure browser,because we can't disable webrtc.so even when we are using VPN Firefox is not secure.This facilities are available on previous versions by about:config.Now this facility is not working.Kindly make firefox a secure browser again.
