Composable Toolbar causing keyboard to get stuck open when launching from homescreen widget and sometimes when website autoshows keyboard

Using the home screen search widget with the composable toolbar enabled(which can't be disabled anymore) on LG G8 causes the keyboard to open as usual but will not dismiss with the button or completing a search where it will attempt to dismiss but fail halfway through animation and block part of the screen.

Reproduce-able with these steps on LG G8: 1 Close Firefox 2 Open search widget from home screen 3 search something in url bar 4 Press Enter 5 Go to homepage, screen off, take a screenshot, or click on another text input box to make keyboard go down, sometimes with glitchy animation.

Not sure the exact cause but it also happens when browsing normally, i think its when a website loads and opens keyboard on its own.

Doesn't seem to happen on Samsung A16

LG G8 Gboard or LG Keyboard Android 11 Video

安卓版Firefox重启加载过慢

当把Firefox置于后台一段时间,甚至是很少的一段时间后,就需要重新加载页面,这个加载过程很慢,通常需要几秒至几十秒,大多数时候都在十几秒。 这对于一个移动端浏览器来说是严重性能影响,因为很多时候可能只是随手搜索一些东西,打开或加载过慢尤其影响使用感受。 像其他浏览器,比如我正在使用的其他浏览器Edge或X浏览器,基本上可以无论何时点开… (read more)

Hello! So long story short I've been looking to switch my default browser to Firefox and I would've done so by now if it wasn't for this small issue.

It's not anything super important, but it has been mildly annoying to deal with. I can't say for certain how long this has been an issue in general since I've only just started trying out the Firefox search widget about a week or two ago. The issue happens every time I use the search widget and seems to happen infrequently when I use my private tab shortcut too, but doesn't happen when I use the app directly however. After a initial search (when you first open the widget/tab), my keyboard would freeze on screen (sometimes fully opaque and other times a bit transparent in a similar way to a screen burn). I can only fix it by either exiting and re-entering the app/tab or by clicking on a link and having it redirect me. I have zero clue as to what could be causing this or if it is some kind of bug?

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

For a few weeks now, trying to to type anything while using Firefox on android mobile is an exercise in frustration and insanity. It makes me want to tear my hair out. I type part of a word, and then it suddenly adds the autocompleted word after the end of the letter I already typed. It also keeps screwing up after apostrophes: I type "The car is Jo's car" for example, and suddenly the cursor makes a space after "Jo", but the cursor moves to behind the "s". The end result looks like "The car is Jo' car"s

I'm not making this up, it literally happened while typing the above line and I decided to leave it like that for you to see. Typing in firefox right now is maddening.

Hi whenever I use my Google account to sign into websites (Google, ebay, YouTube, & anyother sites,) Firefox will become unresponsive, the window containing the tab i was using becomes unresponsive, sort of. - I can't click any open Firefox Tabs, - the red 'Close' radio button is greyed-out, so I can't close any tabs or the window - right-click is unresponsive, so i can't close tabs that way, but Command-W closes the tabs normally, but the others are still unresponsive.

- i can open a new Firefox window (with &/or without Tabs,) which works normally.

- & unrelated, but earlier, Firefox was running really slowly, Youtube videos were slowed down, but audio was normal, and scrolling was slow.

Hello, I'm having trouble with my Firefox Nightly Android today. The scrolling is very choppy while trying to browse any article or webpage. It's most noticeable if I quickly scroll down and up. There is a large delay before my page scrolls back up. Is there any setting I have to change to fix this?

Recently when typing on Firefox on the duckduckgo search engine, anything you type gets doubled, and you cannot backspace. The issue doesn't occur when on Google page, only on ddg. I also tried different keyboard apps and the issue still persists. I went to the same page on Google chrome and the issue does not occur. This just started happening within the last week or so. If it matters/helps, I'm on Samsung s24 ultra.

When using Gboard speak to text in the Firefox address/search bar, it stuck writings after two or three words. Using the same Gboard speak to text on any other browser (Chrome, Samsung Browser, Edge, etc), works perfectly. That said, I assume it's a compatibility issue between Firefighter and Gboard. Same feature on Samsu keyboard works fine. Any idea to fix the issue?

How can I avoid this problem in the Android version of Firefox?
