Firefox foar Mobyl-mienskipsfoarum

On android phones, you can disable the gesture hint (white bar at bottom of screen). Other apps I have tried while having it disabled have no issue. With Firefox however... when gesture hint is off and i swipe up from the bar, my finger is technically swiping at the address bar, which (aside of sending me to home - because that's what the up gesture does on the bottom) opens the tab switcher.

Hi! I´m a big shortcut user and a year-long Firefox fan and user. Now it´s the first time I´m using an Android tablet (Boox Tab X C) and the typical shortcuts for new tab (Ctrl + T), close tab (Ctrl + W), etc. do not work. I researched this a little and it seems to be by design. Why do you forsake us, Firefox god??

In any case, thanks for the good work folks. Love the Mozilla name and what it stands for for a long time now. Peace

Firefox deleted older open tabs on my samsung phoone and my ipad. This was really gutting as these were open for a reason. I was not logged into either instance as I wanted to preserve my privacy as best as possible.

On Android, with the OS set to use the bottom 3 buttons (back, home, app switcher) and Firefox set to use bottom address bar, when multiple tabs are open, closing a tab causes the "Tab Closed" bar to cover the lowest tab in the list.

This causes problems when trying to close multiple tabs because it's no longer possible to hit the "X" marking on the next tab without swiping the box away first.

I don't recall exactly then this became a problem, but it was fine until a few months ago and then a change caused this issue to start.

There's a lot of empty space in the box, maybe smush the box to the left side of the screen so the next tab is still able to be closed?

When I close the last tab in the list of tabs, the notification that pops up blocks the "x" for the next tab. This makes it tedious to close multiple tabs, since I have to wait for the notification to disappear before being able to close the next tab. Are there any work-arounds?

There is a numbers left address bar, when I click there is nothing but a word create new tab for searching. I have to swipe left right all over to find the right tab i want. Do not tel me that I can search tab,, it's not ver confinence.. it is stressful

When the "Delete browsing data on exit" feature is enabled in Firefox for Android, the app correctly clears selected data types (e.g., Browsing history, Cookies, Cache) upon exit. However, the "Recently closed tabs"list is completely unaffected and remains intact after restarting the app.

I have firefox for android installed and have set up "delete browsing data on quit". I made sure all boxes are ticked and when I press quit it does delete my browsing data, however the recently closed tabs section still keeps all its info retained, in effect my browsing history does not get deleted until I do it manually and then quit firefox. I deleted the app cache and when that did not work, I did a fresh reinstall of the firefox app and the issue still persists.

Please stop fixing things that aren't broken! I just installed the new version of Firefox for Android and I hate having tabs strewn across the the top of the screen. Many of them are personal and private and I want them hidden from view. The previous version of fox for Android work just fine for me, this one doesn't. Is it possible to remove them from you?

I use Firefox instead of apps for everything. And do often have 5-10 tabs open. Phone: poco x7 pro 8GB Android: 16 This problem is not present in my older phone.(Android 13) It clears the tabs, whenever Firefox is sent to the background. That means all the tabs have to be reloaded. That means battery consumption, data consumption, delay, losing my place in videos ( I watch YouTube on Firefox too) . I am willing to do anything short of rooting the phone.

First of all, I hope this is the correct place for this feedback. The release announcement page seems to link here, but I'm not totally sure. If not, could you direct me to the correct location?

After I overcame the initial "hey, I didn't want that changed, put it back" phase, I have to say I really like the new design. Especially the overhang menu (the the vertical dots) is much better.

However, there are a few things, that could be improved, I believe.

1. Make the tabs list respect the URL bar top/bottom setting. That would be great for people like me, who regularly close all taps and usually have only 2-3.

1. The same goes for the tabs within the tabs list (private / synced buttons).

1. The buttons at the bottom of the tabs list (new tab and the vertical dots) feel visually unbalanced.

Thank you, and have a great evening.

PS: please also note that I'm quite confused on what version I'm on now. This page, the browser and the Playstore all say 147, but I have the changes mentioned in the 148 release notes. Is this one of the remote improvements mentioned by the release notes?

EDIT: Nevermind. Update fixed the issue!

As of today, when I drag left or right on the screen in the browser, it tries to switch between next/previous tabs. This happens even if there's a web app I'm using that allows for click-and-drag functionality. I can't find a setting to turn this feature off.

hey, guys hope someone could understand what I'm trying to talk about.

after update to Firefox nightly 144.o1a, in the tab list, i need to slide over 70% to close one tab. feels like i have to very carefully slide it to make sure i really want to close the tab, and it kind of wasting time.

the past version like 110.a? are not, easily slide to close the tab.

so is there setting in the about: config can change it?

like the picture, it have over than it so the tan can be closed.

Hi,

I'm quite annoyed about the new Android Firefox menu update. It takes up so much more space on the screen for not really adding any extra usability and the New Tab button is entirely gone in spite of there being plenty of space to have included it. Where did it go? I'd really prefer to have it back.

Regards, eliana

I'm Firefox nightly starting several days ago when you hit the widget to view all open tabs. Previously the active tab had an indicator in this all tabs listing. Now the active tab. For example, the tab where you're watching a YouTube video has no visual indication that that's actually the active tab. this is on Android. When you swipe down to view a widget that displays the tab that's playing the video when you click on it, it now does not take you to the tab that was running. Essentially, the active tab viewing is fundamentally broken on Firefox nightly whereas it worked prior to about a week ago

About background website lists..Displaying the number of pages box makes it difficult to browse and I suggest placing colorful, easily selectable lists after the number of pages box list.

So I just try Firefox and I want to know if it have something like auto hide tab and I found your article on how to do this but it didn't show up on private tab or on the setting

After some update on Android Firefox, discarding tab by swiping to right (on List mode) has become so much more difficult that it messes with the flow and makes me consider switching browser. Is there a way to maybe tweak some configs to change it back or even a way to downgrade the Firefox?
