Firefox for iOS Community Forum

I'm a big fan of Firefox and particularly appreciate the ability to automatically clear my Browse history upon closing the application. I've been trying to find this feature on Firefox for iOS, following steps similar to those available on the desktop version (Settings > Privacy & Security > History > "Clear history when Firefox closes").

However, I haven't been able to locate these options on the iOS app. Is this feature currently unavailable on Firefox for iOS? If so, are there any plans for its development in future updates? This is a functionality I highly value for privacy and would love to see implemented on the mobile version.

Thank you for any insights!

Greetings all,

The topic that best describes my question / challenge is Firefox browser settings- at least I hope there is setting for this. I have looked within Firefox and the appropriate iOS settings but I am coming up blank so far.

Important to note, the behavior I describe below is specific to Firefox for iOS. Using Safari, I get a different behavior -one that I used to see in Firefox.

In the screenshot I have attached we can see a website offering the first portion of an authentication prompt: the field to enter an email address.

Placing the cursor inside the email address field -to select / activate it- the text ‘Hide My Email’ appears just above the keyboard. I have circled this in red to highlight what I am referring to.

What I used to see in this space is integration with my Password Manager of choice. Now I see ‘Hide My Email’ and I cannot figure out how to get the password manager back in there.

As I mentioned earlier, Safari is showing my password manager in this space -as expected- but Firefox is not.

I am not using ‘Hide My Email’ through iCloud+. I have not configured it within iOS, and I don’t see a way to turn it off.

Ideas?

Buenos días, les reitero mi consulta de ayer. Con la actualización de la última versión ha desaparecido la carpeta “Firefox” de Archivos. Solo puedo acceder a los archivos descargados a través de la propia app. No se descargan allí automáticamente lo que pierde su navegador la funcionalidad que se le requiere. O lo solucionan o desgraciadamente tendré que acudir a un navegador del oligopolio. Muchas gracias.

I cant get the browser to add bookmarks and the "For quick access. place bookmarks here....." doesn't go away All of my bookmarks I had before are gone too. But i don't care too much about that i jut want that message at the top of the screen to go away an i want to be able to add new bookmarks. Can you help me?

How do I get rid of the, “Close Old Tabs” feature?

It is in the way and I continually hit that instead of closed all tabs. I don’t want that feature. I don’t need that feature. It’s in the way. I’d like it to disappear.

Sometimes I’m in Firefox and then have to switch to another app for a reference. When I come back to Firefox it opens in a new homepage instead of where I was I was before switching. Is there any way to prevent a new page from popping up when I switch back to Firefox? I see nothing in settings that might relate to the issue.

The privacy screen on the Firefox iOS 139.1 is missing and the setting to block third cookies is not working because I am getting lot and lot of cookies in the Data management that I have to delete.

Also, Google is all over the place with there cookies. Google setting blocking item on the right side of the homepage of C-span.org and keeps adding its ads at the beginning of the live streaming.
