Firefox ar Android Community Forum

Last night my bookmarks didnt work suddenly. I tried a lot with no results. While typing internet works. I uninstalled it and installed it again. This morning i realised that most of my boomark have gone. Really headache as i have too many important website.

Heya, I'm having trouble getting my microphone to work in Firefox on android. I'm using a Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra (Android 16, One UI 8) and tried both the regular version of Firefox and Nightly, the latter being my regular one, 'cause the UI is just better on a tablet. The regular one was a fresh install, so the issue shouldn't be corrupt cache or anything like that. I've given the app the Microphone permission in the android settings, it also asks for microphone permissions when using any site that requests it, but when I check site-specific permissions via the lil shield icon, there's no microphone. It's like Firefox thinks I have no mic at all. Not the Logitech Pro X 2 Lightspeed bluetooth headset I'm using, nor the tab's own. When disconnecting the headset, it still won't find the tab's own mic. Any other app works just fine, though, and webcam also works. I tried a few matrix clients, discord web, some webrtc and mic test sites... Seems to be Firefox, not specific sites nor android in general.

Anyone got any clue what might be going on there?

Hi, I ve got notified of new update for Firefox, "Read aloud: A Text to Speech Voice Reader has an update". Does it just add AI voices to T2S in Reeder Mode? I want to know because I have personal dislike for newer AI LLM voices and use of AI in general.

Thank you and best regards

Using FF for android, 148.0.1. How can I return from any page directly to the home page so I can see my collections and choose another site? The home button seems to be gone.

I have a Mozilla Firefox login with hundreds of bookmarks, I've been saving for years. With the recent update, I was logged out. I tried to log back in with my saved password and email. The information I have is correct. The problem lies in the fact that I created that login & pass with a University email. After graduating,the ending of the email address was changed to @alumni.edu sort of thing. So now it's trying to send me a security code to login and I cannot receive it because of this change to the email address, thus I cannot get logged back into my firefox to retrieve my bookmarks. Please help.

This is a problem with Firefox for Android security policies. Because everything works as expected

• in Firefox Desktop Linux
• Chrome for Android
• pasting text instead of an image in Firefox for Android.

I'm trying to paste images in my own web app, in my own Android phone.

• I get the "onpaste" event and clipboardData field as described in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/paste_event.
• HOWEVER ONLY in Firefox for Android, and only when I paste an image, both the "items" and "files" lists in the clipboardData field are empty, with length=0.
• The app is served from an httpS site with a certificate Firefox for Android recognizes as valid.

I didn't find any way to enable clipboard access from the Settings UI for my own site.

It would be sad if Firefox ends up pushing users to Chrome because building our own apps gets more difficult in Firefox than Google's walled garden :'(

Moin. Copy fast URL ?? Tapping address bar marks all of the www by default. OK. But only long pressing calls the context menu for copying etc. This is not very useable for me. Too often the marked range changes or gets unmarked.

What about a default context dropout menue by marked text? like in Brave etc.

Hi. So I've been having this issue where, I search something in google, it searches what I asked it to. Then I search again and it finds what I asked it to. The third time if I search again it'll go back to the first thing I tried to search as if i just pressed BACK twice. Something similar happens if I search for something, and then if I search the second thing and tap on the website and then press BACK, it'll go back to the first Google result I ssearched. It's been a few weeks this has been happening and the only thing that'll TEMPORARILY fix it is if I close firefox. If you need any more information I'd be happy to help you help me. Thank you!

I no longer have the primary email account I registered with Firefox (It was a paid for private domain that I discontinued a few years back). how do I make my second email address on file the primary?

bold textIch möchte wieder den Zugriff auf meine Passwörter mit dem damals angemeldeten Googlemail-account: mstrelow.ms@googlemail.com bei Firefox War lange Zeit in Haft-Firefox mit dem damaligen Account zuletzt genutzt vor ca 10 Jahren Eine Mail mit Bestätigungscode wird an den oben genannten Account geschickt,habe jedoch keinen Zugriff mehr darauf, weil dieser ja nach der langen Zeit von Google gelöscht wurde.

On some websites Firefox blocks entry of texts in text fields manifested in 2 ways: keyboard in Android pops but no text is entered when typing, or no keyboard pops. The tried refreshing pages, switching to desktop mode, clearing browsing data nothing works. Attempting to report this to a site:https://ambientweather.net. Ultimately I had to download and install a different browser to access the site. I was already logged into the site and other field changes were correctly implemented. On pages with 2 search fields, one site-wide and one in my search context, both fields failed When switching to desktop version, I noticed a typical cookie notice which I hoped was taking the focus away from the other fields but closing that notice did not resolve the problem.

While I assume a design implementation error by sites, this may be related to the ongoing memory conflicts one experiences when doing multiple searches on heavy video sites. As with the old Firefox Android, Firefox slows down and can't seem to dump all it's cache, apparently, to handle more input. in those cases a dump of most browsing data generally clears the problem, but didn't help here. I suspect an underlying Firefox cause because I've seen this over several random sites but with no clear pattern. I just revisited the site above and it works as designed now.

Consider this the equivalent to trying to use a PC without a keyboard, it's really a catastrophic fail.

Firefox android, even without all the extension it takes atleast 25% of my battery 5k mah (in an hr). Firefox being default browser for years I can tolerate it but PLEASE can you optimize it more so it won't be a hassle,thank you.

Dear Mozilla Support Team, I am writing to report a significant security breach involving my Firefox browser that resulted in session hijacking my Firefox devloper browser email was ( [email removed]@gmail.com ) in panic log out form my account and reset the laptop now I don't have access to the data and the compromise of multiple high-value accounts (Discord, Rockstar, and Telegram). Incident Details: Date of Incident: February 2026 Primary Exploit Identified: BeEF (Browser Exploitation Framework) OS: Windows 11 Symptoms: allowing an unauthorized party identified as operating from an IP in Vietnam to bypass 2FA by stealing active session tokens. Despite having security measures in place, the attacker successfully: Accessed my saved Google passwords. Reset my Rockstar Games and Discord account passwords. Gained access to my Telegram account (which has since been deleted). Technical Observations: Standard scans with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes did not immediately detect the "infostealer" responsible, suggesting the use of "Living-off-the-Land" (LotL) scripts or a sophisticated browser-based hook that persisted even after clearing basic cache. I am reporting this to help Mozilla investigate how Firefox's cookie storage and session management can be further hardened against BeEF-style hooks and unauthorized token extraction.

Using Firefox on Android, occasionally hitting the phone's back button will go back twice. Hitting forward will then go forward twice. The middle stop is lost!

This is frustrating.

Why i cannot save, the saved password, into the password manager as a plain text file, and i have to expose it to other maybe malicious apps by copying it?

Since it could be used to store not only passwords, but maybe also (for example) encryption Private keys, since there (seem to me) is no limit (that's very good and fantastic!) on how the stored password is.

So, into the screen i can only copy the "password". That expose it to all others apps. The same goes for desktop browser.

Why not to add the possibility to upload a password from a file? And to save the saved password as a file?

Thank You guys!
