Firefox ar Android Community Forum

Hi recently my phone got stolen and while im unable to afford a new one im using a samsung tablet model SM-T705Y which is not new and only tunning android 6, it cant even get a version of the youtube app that will work so i have to watch them on the website. This was all good until a few days ago when it just started coming up with a error message. Please help. Thanks, Travis.

Even though I've never changed my settings aside from the first time I changed them to my preferred settings, for whatever reason, Firefox no longer opens links I tap on in external apps. I changed the settings to do it that way the very first time and it worked fine up until a little while ago. Now, the only way it opens a link in the external app when I tap on it, is if I tap and hold, and then choose that option in the pop-up menu. As I said, in the settings it IS set to open links in external apps, but it doesn't do it anymore.

Ever since the latest update to Firefox nightly on Android, whenever I try to open the browser I get a pop up asking me if I want to open it with the Play Store or the Samsung store. I went ahead and updated it and it continues to do this every single time I try to open the browser. It continually opens the Play Store as well. This must be some bug as it is happening on both of my devices that I recently updated Firefox nightly, both my phone and my tablet.

Dear users and support team.

I am now using Zen Browser (based on Firefox) for nearly a month now and loved it ever since. If there was not this one problem, I had, that forced me to switch browsers.

Like in any other browser I have used before, I was able to import and save my passwords from various websites, so that I do not have to remember them fully by myself. I expected, that I could use my fingerprint sensor, or at least my PIN-Code to confirm my passwords, when automatically entering them. However, if i want to log into a website, which requires a password, my password is always automatically, without me ever touching anything entered. So I went into the settings of the browser and toggled the button "Fill usernames and passwords automatically" off. So now they would not pop up automatically anymore and I was happy. This did not last very long however, because, when I wanted to enter the password and authenticate myself before filling in the password by clicking on the pop-up window beneath the password-entering, I can enter my saved passwords without ever scanning my fingerprint reader, typing in my pin or using any other authentication method. I tried various times to change the setting "Require device sign in to fill and manage passwords" from on to off and back again, hoping it would work in some way. I am seriously sad a bit, because I never had a this good and fluid working browser until now. If you cannot help me out here, I see myself forced to use another browser, where I can actually and securely safe my passwords.

Thank you!

It would be great to be able to save reader mode pages locally (especially on desktop)

tabs list jumps to the start when intermittently switching to private mode, which is quite annoying when having lots of tabs

Every time I bring the app to 0 tabs, the application automatically sends me to the Firefox Nightly for Developers page on the Google Play Store, even after I've checked repeatedly that the application is its most recent version. This began WITH a prompt to update, which I found to be normal, but now it will not cease!

Getting a weird issue. When I open Firefox Beta, if it is not already running it loses focus on Firefox and pops open the Google Play Store over the top of Firefox on its Firefox Beta page. It's doing this consistently and repeatably. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy A52 5G on the latest update of Android 14.

Ive no idea why, I woke up the next morning and seemed as if an update occured. If I make a search it shows text and location as if i am from the Nederland, it's difficult only having a phone but no matter what changes I attempt and try to save...with no avail..continues remaining the same, after days trying to fix i was finally able to find this option. Respectfully, ask for help. Thought this was a private discussion of the issue and not an open thread?

Every time I open Firefox Nightly it opens Google Play Store to get me to rate the app.

This is a usability nightmare.

It asked me to rate the app originally and I pressed whatever the 'not just now' option was.

Now I get taken to the Google Play Store every time I launch Firefox Nightly. I cannot find any setting to revert this, and have no intention of leaving a review.
