Firefox foar iOS-mienskipsfoarum

Yahoo has locked me out of my email. It says I need to enable cookies in my browser. I have tried setting security options to low. This does not refer to choosing to send crash reports etc. which I also have tried. See attached photo. IOS iPhone and iPad are up to date.

Hi! I am using MacOS Firefox and configured:

Delete cookies and site data when Firefox closes.

However I could not find this option in Firefox for IOS or iPadOS and therefore unwilling to use it on these platforms. I find it unconvenient manually deleting those data before closing and I hate foreign software installed on my devices.

Is there any settings I have missed?

In recent weeks, I’ve been getting signed out of two sites in particular, Patreon.com and Defector.com what feels like every day. It’s a nuisance, as I subscribe to both sites and read them primarily through the Firefox browser. I tried deleting all cookies and the issue has persisted. Any help is appreciated.

iOS 26 / Firefox 143.0.1 When trying to delete “all site data” under settings - data management, nothing actually happens although the stored sites disappear at the moment. But when closing and opening the browser again I find the “deleted” site data still there. It only seems to work if I select a few specific sites and hit delete data.

Recently transferred from Chrome. My understanding was Firefox private browsing was supposed to work similarly to chrome incognito mode; once you close the browser, all local files are deleted and cookies are cleared.

However, with Firefox it maintains my logins. If I log into an account while private browsing and the close the browser, I’ll still be logged in next time I go to the website even if it’s days later (and I have never logged into this account in a non-private browsing window!)

I never had this issue using chrome incognito, so it seems to be a Firefox problem.

Is this just not something Firefox supports? Is there any way to prevent storage of cookies and private data?

I have used Firefox to log in to Hotmail.com for years. Suddenly Firefox is deleting login data when I close the tab, but not the browser. And when I return to hotmail in a new tab, I now get a window that says it "can't sign me in, try again later." I have to close Firefox and reopen in order to get a new login page. I have always had Firefox set to delete cookies and site data when I close it. Under History setting, it's "use custom settings", "delete history on closing." Under those settings I have browsing and download history unchecked. My hotmail setting is to stay logged in. What's up?! I've always been able to return to a logged in hotmail all day no matter how many times I close the tab and return to it. I've never had that problem before and don't have it with Safari. I also do not have that issue with yahoo mail.

After recent updates, I’ve been having issues with cookies. Whenever I open Firefox and perform a new Google search, it shows that I’m logged out and the cookie consent popup appears. I have to refresh the page for it to work properly. After refreshing, the cookies load, I’m logged in, and the popup disappears. This issue isn’t limited to Google Search—it happens on about 90% of the websites I try to access right after launching Firefox.
