Firefox for Android Community Forum

I've been having an issue for months where I cannot use Amazon on the Firefox mobile browser. Amazon redirect links won't open in the app and I can't use the browser version of Amazon because whenever I try to log in, it just opens up another tab prompting me to log in. Endlessly.

Ive ceared all browsing data (cookies, cache, site data) Set cookies to "Ask to allow" Disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection for Amazon Set "Open links in apps" to "Always" in Firefox settings Verified Amazon app is set as default for Amazon links in Android system settings (Open by default → Open supported links is enabled) Reinstalled both Firefox and the Amazon app Tested on other browsers (Samsung Internet works fine with the same links)

When I tap an amzn.to link, screen flashes white briefly (like it's trying to open the app), then dumps me into a new browser tab When I try to log into Amazon in Firefox, I enter credentials, hit login, and it immediately opens a new tab asking me to log in again. infinite loop The "Need Help" link on Amazon's login page successfully opens the Amazon app, so app handoff does work I guess, just not in any useful way that I've been able to find.

when Google share links are sent to me, they won't open in Firefox. I have to copy and paste the entire uRL and open Chrome in order to view them on my android device. Pixel 9

When going to immich public proxy (as an example) from a link from another app, the Set-Cookie header is set but when performing the window.reload the cookies are not sent within the request.

See code : https://github.com/alangrainger/immich-public-proxy/blob/main/app/views/password.ejs#L49-L69

Reproduction steps : - have a link inside an app - click link - on site perform a request that returns a Set-Cookie header with sameSite=strict - perform a window.reload - check that cookie isn't sent

The same steps where performed on different browsers (Samsung Browser, Firefox on windows) but all of them sent the cookies allowing the authentication.

Is the behavior wanted ? From ietf it seems that is not a normal behavior : https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-cookie-same-site-00#section-2.1

I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+ tablet, UTD OS, using Firefox 150.0.1. The 'use desktop setting' is on, but most pages don't render in the desktop and are so skewed, they're impossible to view. I've turned the setting off and it makes zero difference. I understand Firefox was changed to always render in desktop mode on tablets sometime last year, but it's not working and I'm at a loss. I don't want to switch to a different browser, but I've tried everything I can think of at this point. If anyone has a suggestion or fix short of switching, I'm all ears. Thank you.

I am using Firefox for Android. I normally use ChatGPT in Firefox instead of the Android ChatGPT app.

I found a reproducible issue with chatgpt.com and the Firefox setting “Open links in apps”.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the official ChatGPT Android app. 2. Open Firefox for Android. 3. Go to Settings > Open links in apps. 4. Set it to “Never”. 5. Open https://chatgpt.com.

Actual result: The website connects, but the page content is blank.

6. Change “Open links in apps” to “Ask before opening”. 7. Open https://chatgpt.com again. 8. When Firefox asks whether to open the external ChatGPT app, tap “Cancel”.

Actual result: The ChatGPT website loads normally inside Firefox.

Then I uninstalled the ChatGPT Android app.

After uninstalling the app, Firefox no longer shows the external-app prompt. However, chatgpt.com becomes a blank page again, regardless of whether “Open links in apps” is set to “Never” or “Ask before opening”.

Expected result: If “Open links in apps” is set to “Never”, or if I tap “Cancel” on the external-app prompt, chatgpt.com should load normally in Firefox.

This looks like a Firefox for Android compatibility issue with Android App Links / external app handling for chatgpt.com. It may also involve the website fallback behavior, but the blank page seems to depend on Firefox’s external-link setting.

While filling a form in a web page, and switch to another application for data fetching, the web page simply reloads itself making it a huge burden to fill in all the detail. While this does not happen in opera.

I've installed Firefox cause I get to know it's not chromium based, It seems fun but the sites are not loading properly, google search is not functioning normally like the ai mode or the ai summary you get It's not working and site are taking too much time to load I've only installed the recommended extensions maybe that could be the reason but I don't know and you guys should improve the UI make more character to it that's all you guys are doing great best regards

Since the November 6th update, my input from SwiftKey keyboard specifically on Duckduckgo site (not when searching from Firefox address bar) is being very disrupted. Single click on spacebar is ignored and autocomplet filles in a different spot than the cursor. This doesn't happen an any other website an also does not happen on chrome for android on Duckduckgo. Also this does not happen with gboard in Firefox. Any ideas?

Since a year or so there is a bug in the Firefox mobile browser where at the end of a chessgame on Lichess.org the browser will hang if you click New Opponent. After clicking the button it sends you to an URL like this: https://lichess.org/?hook_like=52XDuQry but then it just stops loading and chrashes the browser app.

Before the last update this would not pertain after I force stopped the app. but now it will hang even after that. I have the browser set up to delete all browsingdata on Quit, but even that doesn't work anymore, since the browser will just hang with a popup 'deleting browsingdata'

I use GBoard on both my phone and my Galaxy A8. I often have to switch from one language to another when I write posts or comments and each time GBoard minimises after I changed languages. This is highly frustrating. Is this a known problem? If it is when will it be fixed? Thank you. P.S. : this doesn't happen in other browsers

I'm looking at buying an online course and each time I visit the website their prices are displayed in dollars. I'm not using anything to change my location and my Firefox settings all allow sites to detect my location. Furthermore, if I use Chrome my correct location is detected and prices are displayed in my local currency (euro).

How do I fix this issue?

Safeway is a store where they sell food and other things. I shop online for food and then I go to the store and pick up the food. Using Firefox it won't show the food I'm looking for. For example I'll select vegetables and they'll show me the 7,000 vegetables and then I select fresh vegetables from their drop-down menu and it says zero there are no fresh vegetables try spelling better. But if I use Chrome no problem none. I don't want to use Chrome. This happens with every group of food when it gets down to the final subsection that I want it won't show it to me. I've turned off extensions I've turned off ad blockers I've emptied my cash restarted my computer I unplugged it plugged it back in. I refreshed Firefox I'm running silicon chip on my Mac mini 2020 I believe.

Issue: Critical Rendering Failure and Script Latency on Polybuzz.ai I am reporting a consistent issue where modern AI platforms, specifically Polybuzz.ai, fail to function correctly on Firefox (both Android and Linux). Despite being a loyal user since 2004, the current performance gap compared to Chromium browsers is making daily tasks impossible. Core Technical Problems: Layout Corruption: Even in Desktop Mode, the UI breaks, elements overlap, and CSS grids do not render properly. High Input Lag: Massive delays in JavaScript execution, causing the browser to become unresponsive during site interaction. Engine-Level Issues: The problem persists on both Android (latest stable) and Linux (Zorin OS/Linux Mint), suggesting a fundamental issue with the Gecko engine's handling of heavy AI frameworks. Troubleshooting Done: Tested with Enhanced Tracking Protection both ON (Standard) and OFF. Cleared all site data and cache. Verified that the same site runs smoothly on Chromium-based browsers on the same network/device. Please investigate Gecko’s compatibility with these modern web standards. Screenshots of the broken UI are attached for reference.

Hi, I am reporting a severe issue on Android 15. On YouTube, the "Auto-next" feature and background playback fail. The next song plays for only 0.1 seconds and stops. I have personally tested this on 8 different Android 15 devices (Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, Realme). Chromium-based browsers like Brave work fine, but Firefox is being blocked. Please fix this discrimination.
