Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hello! I've recently been having some issues getting videos to play in the background from Firefox's audio notification media player feature. I very frequently use YouTube in the Firefox browser so that I can then exit the browser and still play the audio of a video via the media player, but last night that media player stopped working for me. When I close the Firefox app, I still get the notification as usual, but tapping the "play" button achieves absolutely nothing. I've tried to search the issue and test some fixes myself, but nothing has worked so far. The fixes I've tried include:

• Activated "Allow video and audio" in the Firefox Autoplay setting
• Made sure autoplay was allowed in the YouTube browser tab
• Tried to play the audio while connected to wi-fi and while on data
• Checked for updates to my phone, YouTube, and Firefox (I am up to date)
• Deployed the old "turn it off and turn it back on again" fix, both in Firefox (closing all tabs and re-opening), and for my phone (shut it down and restarted it).

None of the settings for the media player or general notifications for Firefox seem to govern this issue, so I'm bringing it here. Thank you for taking the time to read through all of this. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me! (I've included a photo of the notification bar for extra reference)

Hi. So I've been having this issue where, I search something in google, it searches what I asked it to. Then I search again and it finds what I asked it to. The third time if I search again it'll go back to the first thing I tried to search as if i just pressed BACK twice. Something similar happens if I search for something, and then if I search the second thing and tap on the website and then press BACK, it'll go back to the first Google result I ssearched. It's been a few weeks this has been happening and the only thing that'll TEMPORARILY fix it is if I close firefox. If you need any more information I'd be happy to help you help me. Thank you!

Hi, When I go to a specific website, my password is being auto filled to the page's search bar. I have created an Autofill exception for this site, and it still happens. To stop it, I have to disable password Autofill on entirely. I probably don't need to say this is a security issue. Every time I visit this site my password is being sent to their servers as a search query. I'm using Firefox Android. Please help

I am using Firefox on android and since the most recent update the app will no longer let me play videos in the background, in another tab or with the screen locked.

My preferred browser is Firefox. Unfortunately, there are many websites that willnot/can not load when I try. My bank, my insurance, a few government websites.. I am told many tips to try, and I am told to use different browsers. Any suggestions?

I have a strange problem when searching for stuff on the internet. (Using google if it matters)

First search I type something like cars. I press enter. I get cars.

Second search I type black cars. I press enter. I get cars again and in the search result it shows i searched cars.

I type black cars again. I press enter. I get black cars, search finally says I searched black cars.

I refresh. I get cars again and the search shows I only searched cars.

Every time I wanna search something I need to open up a new tab or I run into this issue and it's driving me insane. I have no idea where to even start with troubleshooting this problem, it's so strange.

When I open the settings in Firefox on my chromebook, I don't have a option to import data at all. It's just missing. I keep looking up how to do it, and it keeps telling me to go to settings, under general find the import data, and select chrome. But there is no import button at all.

I need to download, install, and update Firefox for Android properly.”

Would you like me to also guide you step by step on how to download, install, and keep Firefox updated on your Android device?

I have multiple devices on Firefox. My desktop folders keep the same when it syncs bookmarks but the links are not related to the bookmarks in the tool bar. Otherwise the bookmark no longer takes me to the correct location
