Firefox Mobile IOS App Text Replacement

more options

This app replaces my text as I have it set up on my iPhone 13,iOS 15.5, but it does it automatically unlike all my other browser apps which show the text replacement as an option I can tap or X out of it if I don’t want. It’s impossible for me to type in a search query without the automatic text replacement filling and making it impossible for me to type in my search query. In other words I can’t get past the automatic text replacing in the field, which makes it impossible to do a search. Ive looked everywhere on the app and my iPhone for a specific setting to turn off, but can’t find it, if it exits? Help!

I have the same problem and this does not help. I’ve set up a text replacement for “p” to “å” (single letter word in Norwegian and I often type p instead by mistake and the keyboard does not autocorrect this to å, that’s why I set up text replacement).

However if I try to go to the electronic store power.no it instantly text replace the p to å and I can’t type in the URL…
