Floating Search Bar
Sometimes when I come back to the Firefox app (i.e. already opened to the last tab I browsed) the lower search bar is floating in a place on my screen higher than normal and I’m unable to access it. It’s blocking the screen and I can’t touch or type into the search bar. It requires a quitting of the app and restarting it. This happens almost every day at least once or more. Seems like a bug of some kind perhaps to with scrolling on the page. Would love a solution.

Hi Micah,
That definitely sounds off. Can you share a screenshot of how it look like?
There's a few similar reports: - github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/34656 - github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/32873 - github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/29740
depending on if rotation, backgrounding or accessory/input methods triggered it.
If this started for you recently, it's possible there's a fix that will roll out in two days in v156.0 github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/35638 so check your app store Monday to get the newest version and see if there's any improvement. Thanks!
That said, if it's not fixed in current v156 for you, I'd love to hear more details when and how it reproduces, as it would help the engineers figuring out the issues linked earlier.
