Firefox for Android Community Forum

My mozilla account contains history entries from a job a no longer work at.

I've tried deleting history and databases on both mobile and desktop, yet some still persist. I've experienced the issue on multiple devices, making me assume there's something up with the history entries tied to the account.

I accidentally signed out of my Mozilla account on my previous device.Now, after signing in to my account on my new device, the data from my previous device is not coming through.How do I collect data from a previous device? Please help.

Hi,

I had Firefox tab syncing set up on my phone, and the synced tabs were showing up fine on my other devices for a while. About 3 weeks ago, that phone was lost (long story — it ended up in a river) and I haven't been able to sync from it since.

Now the synced tabs from that device are no longer showing up on my other browsers, and I need to recover some important information that was in those tabs.

A few specific questions:

What is the current official expiration policy for synced tabs data (as of 2026)? I've found conflicting info in old forum threads — anywhere from 1 week to a year depending on platform and Firefox version. Is there any way to see whether my account still has cached tab data for a device that's been disconnected/inactive for ~3 weeks, even if it's not displaying in the normal Synced Tabs view? If the tab data has expired, is there any other server-side record (even temporarily) that Mozilla could check on the account side that isn't visible to me as the end user?

Any help checking the account status directly, or clarifying the actual current retention window, would be a huge help. For my email address, please request below.

Thanks, Ebe

The email address showing for me on Firefox is from a defunct account. My business has been closed and Outlook canceled. I thought I had changed everything on Firefox before that happened but it appears I'm wrong. Since I can't receive verification codes to the closed email address how do I get the correct email address on my account?

Here's a clear and concise version you can send to the Mozilla Firefox team:

Firefox for Android does not work properly with Android screen readers. When browsing websites, many accessibility elements such as checkboxes, combo boxes, edit fields, buttons, and other controls are not announced or navigated correctly. This makes web browsing very difficult for blind and low-vision users. The same websites work much better with Google Chrome and Android Accessibility services. Please investigate and improve Firefox's accessibility support for Android screen reader users.

I get an unwanted "media control" notification box in my pulldown menu when I play a video in Firefox that won't go away permanently. I can hide the notification manually with the button that appears after a long press on the box or just swipe the box away but as soon as I pause/unpause or start a new vid it respawns. I've turned off all Firefox notifications and made sure that the "pin media player" option available in the settings menu you find with the "hide" button is diabled. I have also tried the about:config workaround for stable Firefox and set the media.hardwaremediakeys.enabled to false, but to no avail. This is an unused 2024 phone that I've just set up so everything should be up to date with Android 15 and Firefox 153.0.1. Am I missing something? Please help!
