Firefox עבור Android Community Forum

Hello, I have Firefox for Android 151.0.4 on a Samsung A50 with Android 9. On the SD card of the device I have several pdf files which can be opened with Adobe Acrobat with no problems. Instead, when I go to the device's file manager, move to that SD card, long-tap on one of those pdf files, tap on the three dots to see more options, choose "Open with" and finally select Firefox, I have that Firefox opens with a "File not found" page and the address bar shows, for instance "content://media/external/file/22098" while the pdf file I tried opening is "/SD Card/Test.pdf".

Is it possible to open local pdf files on my device with Firefox for Android? In the positive case, how can I do it in my case?

Thank you

Although Firefox for Android has support for PWA websites in general,I see that it doesn't detect all pwa websites and creates a simple shortcut instead! For example go to mytuner-radio.com and try to install it as a Pwa, it just creates a shortcut!

If you try this on other browsers like Vivaldi for Android, it installs it as an app, without the need to open the whole browser alongside all the tabs,every time you tap on its icon !

Please fix this and make all sites that support pwa detectable !

I can't find latest Firefox apk for my android. It only shows play store link. I tried signing up for Gmail account but that requires phone number verification these days. Never in my life was creating a Gmail account so much hard. It doesn't even give option to get code on some other number. The only option it shows is to insert a sim and google will verify itself which is kinda annoying. Please share the latest official Firefox apk link. It's impossible for me to create Gmail account as there is no Sim in my phone.

I have an unswipable notifacation saying "microphone is on tap to open tab thats using your microphone" however, when i tap it it just opens the home screen for the app. i can not get it to go away even though i close the app completely, wipped catch for app, and denied all access to my microphone. This is a security concern for me, as well as a privacy concern.

When i am trying to copy the link or share the webpage to somewhere in my android(samsung). It got stuck not like working, but it did not copy or open then sharing window instantly it takes time to open the sharing window or link to copy, it have to send firefox to background and when I came to it then it do my work, so it is so messy so I have to go for other browser most of the time.

Sometimes I am using the youtube app to watch something on a TV, but want to quickly look up a video for someone else on my browser at the same time. I have my settings to "always ask" me whether or not to open links in their native app or stay in FireFox. But recently the setting has not been sticking. I've had to reset the settings at least three times today. What's going on? Am I doing something wrong in settings?

When trying to log into a website, I need to get a log in security code from another app, but when I return to the browser, the page reloads to a previous web page and then the security code is no longer valid, because login username and password require re-entry.
