Firefox for Android Community Forum

I have an issue in that, upon pressing the three-dot menu button on mobile, the browser menu is suddenly popping up from the bottom of the screen instead of sliding in from the side like it's supposed to, as well as what used to be a nice and neat list of options now being a cluster of hard-to-make-out icons and buttons. I didn't change anything in the settings to make it do this (I very specifically selected the "top" display option when I first downloaded Firefox months ago and haven't touched it since), and I've already checked reddit to see if anyone else is having this problem and if so, how to return my menu's behavior and appearance to normal (no luck).

I unfortunately have no images of what my menu is supposed to look like as it never occurred to me something like this could happen, but I can at least provide a screenshot of the ugly way it looks now (notice the little bar at the top of it that suggests I'd be able to "drag" it back to its correct placement? Yeah, it doesn't do anything, no matter how long I hold my finger on it.) PLEASE tell me what can be done to undo this awful change and return my menu to normal!

How do I make this horribel change occured to my browser??

It was okay, fhen it changed into

this

thing and it reverted itself and I was happy

then it's like this again

It has no sense, You must have to use 2 hands at same time to browse with this new UI, it actively tries to lure you into unwanted function. I am unhappy.

Several days ago when I wanted to open a new bookmark, I would click on the 3 dots in the top right corner and a drop down would appear, very easy to navigate. ,Now after tapping the 3 dots box appears at the bottom of the screen, aside from being new in appearance it doesn't seem to be very intuitive

Hello. It could be cool to be able to personalize the tool on Android, just like the desktop version. Is that in that pipe? Is there a proper way to make suggestion? Sincerely, Maxence.

In the latest Firefox for android UI change (dear god, why) there appears to be a new toolbar shortcut. Is it possible to turn this shortcut off, so that the top toolbar only shows |address bar|all tabs|settings|, rather than |address bar|shortcut|all tabs|settings|

Ideally, Id like to go back to the old UI, but I have a feeling that that's not happening.

1. The tabs list places the tabs extremely high up. 2. When using a single toolbar, please add an option to have no "shortcut" in the toolbar. Seeing what site I'm on becomes harder and harder every update, with random new things being added or the padding of existing items being expanded. 3. When using a single toolbar, opening the triple dot menu means I need to stretch my hand all the way to the top of the screen to open it, then all the way to the bottom of the screen to interact with the menu that it opens. This is absurd.

I prefer the desktop view. I know how to change it to desktop view. I would like to know if there is a way to set it to open in desktop instead of having to change it everytime I access the web.

In a recent Firefox update, UI was updated to reflect Material Design. However, some elements aren't displaying as intended. However, the screen with tabs is not displayed on the entire screen (that is, it does not extend into safe zones), although the indents on the screen allow this to be done.

Before that, I had encountered this case as well. After reinstalling, the new menu was applied, but today it reverted to the old one again, and reinstalling no longer works.

I refeshed a page just now, and all the tabs have gone weirdly long, it's a nightmare to interact with different pages, the intuitive structure is gone. What just happened? And how can I put the original settings back?? In the past, security updates did not wreck the ease of use, so I'm guessing this was a cosmetic 'upgrade' and I'm desperately hoping someone knows how to roll it back....

in previous versions the 3 dots menu would open up the newer redesigned main menu that fills the lower 2/3rds of the screen by default, but by enabling debug settings and going into Nimbus Experiments and disabling "Android UI Redesign - Release" it could be changed back to the older, more compact dropdown-styled menu. as of one of the recent updates, the "Android UI Redesign - Release" toggle seemingly does nothing.

I preferred the older menu for several reasons. one issue being that the new menu lacks a new tab button. the others being that it just _feels_ subtly yet annoyingly worse in just about every way.

so, is there any way to still use this old menu, via about:config settings or something? or am I just SOL and need to figure out how to downgrade my version?

Hi!

Suddenly the entire UI of the browser has changed. I have a big bar at the bottom of the screen taking far too much space with buttons I hardly ever need. And when I do need them I know where to find them. Thus they need not be as available as that (read: constantly in the way). It's not enough that it goes away when I scroll down as it pops up as soon as I scroll up again, along with the address bar.

How do I remove this bottom bar? The older UI was far better and didn't take this much space.

Thanks!
