Forum zhromadźenstwa Firefox za Android

A collection item on Android Firefox already has an X, so why allow deletion by swiping left or right? It is WAY TOO EASY to accidentally delete an item by nudging it left or right while clicking it. And there is no warning pop-up. How about an option to disable left/right swipe delete? Or just remove the gestures entirely. Thanks.

Hi,

I'm quite annoyed about the new Android Firefox menu update. It takes up so much more space on the screen for not really adding any extra usability and the New Tab button is entirely gone in spite of there being plenty of space to have included it. Where did it go? I'd really prefer to have it back.

Hello,

I recently switched to Linux and have been having trouble getting my bookmarks from my android device to sync to my desktop (Linux Mint). I have bookmarks enabled on the sync menu on both platforms, but I can't get them to sync over to my desktop from mobile at all; my only current option would be to painstakingly open them one-by-one from my desktop sync with the open tabs viewer (as I can't open all open tabs at once on Linux Firefox for some reason).

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just to tell me that this feature doesn't work on Linux.

Thanks, - Qwin

Hi, I'm having trouble turning on two-factor authentication (2FA) on my account. I've already tried the steps in the article, but I'm still getting an error with the device time. Can you help me?"

Hi. I use Firefox for Android. In settings, there is an option called "external download manager" (an approximate translation from my language; framed on the screenshot anyway). And I can't resolve the difference whether I turn it on or not. What does this affect? Thanks in advance!

I can save a bookmark, then see it in Firefox for desktop computer via Sync. I need editing the tags for the bookmark when creating it. Something similar was possible with Pocket (now EOL). How could I do? Is there some place on which suggest a feature request?

Thanks in advance

A wildcard custom domain configured in Firebase App Hosting works in most browsers and devices, but fails to resolve on Android + Firefox. The apex domain and explicitly added subdomains work everywhere, but any subdomain covered by the wildcard returns Address Not Found on Android Firefox.

Project / Domain • Firebase project: go-flock-beta-92ec0 • Custom domain (apex): invitoz.com • Wildcard mapping: *.invitoz.com • Example failing host: abc.invitoz.com • Example working: invitoz.com, explicitly mapped subdomains

Environment • Failing: Android + Firefox (latest stable), tested on multiple devices & networks • Working: Android Chrome, iOS Safari, iOS Chrome, Desktop Chrome, Desktop Firefox • Hosting type: Firebase App Hosting (Next.js) • DNS: Configured per Firebase’s wildcard instructions

Expected behavior

Wildcard subdomains (*.invitoz.com) should resolve and serve the deployed app on all browsers and devices.

Actual behavior • On Android + Firefox: “Address Not Found” (NXDOMAIN). • On other browsers/devices: Works as expected. • Adding the subdomain individually (not using wildcard) makes it work on Android Firefox too.

DNS configuration • Verified wildcard DNS per Firebase instructions (CNAME *.invitoz.com → ghs.googlehosted.com). • DNS has propagated globally (>24h). • dig abc.invitoz.com returns correct CNAME/A records from desktop & Chrome Android. • On Android Firefox, resolution fails (browser shows NXDOMAIN).

Diagnostics • Works on Android Chrome, so network is fine. • Problem appears isolated to Android Firefox → possible DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) resolver issue with ghs.googlehosted.com for wildcard domains in Firebase App Hosting. • Apex & explicit subdomains are fine — issue is only with wildcard DNS in this browser/OS combo.

Impact

Dynamic event subdomains (e.g., party.invitoz.com) fail to load for Android Firefox users, which is a critical portion of our audience.

Request 1. Confirm if Firebase App Hosting wildcard domains are known to have compatibility issues with Android Firefox. 2. Investigate DNS/TLS handling for wildcard → ghs.googlehosted.com in App Hosting. 3. Suggest any specific DNS records (A/AAAA) to improve compatibility.

The option "Add to Home screen" the webpage option is not working anymore. Instead there is "Add App to Home screen" which cannot save the webpage link on the home screen (Android 15). Firefox on Android recently changed this behavior. When a site supports a Progressive Web App (PWA), the "Add to Home screen" option will often show as "Install app" instead. Firefox thinks you want to install an "app" rather than just a webpage shortcut. Can the developers please fix this?

In Firefox Android, if I tap on the button to open a new tab, this new tab appears at the very end of the tab list.

As someone who has lots of browser tabs open most of the time I find this super annoying because if I research a topic further up in my list of tabs, then open a new tab to search for something related to this topic, I now have two sets of tabs related to the same topic that physically spread apart and navigating between these sets tabs becomes more frustrating the more unrelated tabs lie in between them.

I went through Firefox' settings menu, but couldn't find any settings to change this behavior. Is there perhaps some other way to open new tabs next to the one I am currently on?

Hello,

Recently I switched from Windows 10 to Linux Mint, and I am having difficulty opening all synced tabs at once on my desktop firefox. Specifically, I have tabs open on my Android device in firefox that I can see are synced to my desktop, but I can't open them all at the same time; I would have to click on each to open them. There is no right-click dialog available and I cannot see any other ways to open in batches.

Is this a limitation of firefox on Linux or on Android? (Apologies if this is in the wrong board)

Thank you,

I've added the search engine default for brave in Firefox which I've used for since the beginning but it won't show up as choice in my settings choice and I added in I type it in it says the string is wrong. It is not wrong it doesn't add in because your software browser Firefox isn't working correctly what is the problem.

Currently it says removed if I try to add it again yet it doesn't show up why?

Please fix your browser so it adds in easily it should I should be able to click it it shows up in my choices I make it my default and then it works fine it doesn't do that because you've added too much crap

Extremely frustrating
