Firefox Focus Community Forum

My phone carrier alerted me that my 15gb of data had all been used up, which was surprising considering I've been mostly at home on Wi-Fi and don't ever reach my limit even when I'm traveling.

I looked at what was using the data. To my surprise, it seems like Firefox Focus had inexplicably burned through 10gb (!) of data in the background over the last day without any tabs even open.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there an explanation for what's happening?

I'm concerned about it continuing, obviously, but also concerned it might represent a security breach on my phone somehow.

In the meantime, I've disabled the Firefox Focus app's permission to run data in the background. Not sure if that will solve the issue. I also noticed that it does not seem to have been burning data on Wi-Fi.

Thanks for your help.

For Firefox focus if it's not compatible with my latest software for my Galaxy phone what adjustments do I need to make to the setting so it will run smoothly. Latest Samsung Android version 14 and One ui 6.1

I have just reactivated a (duplicate) computer which I have only used 2 or3 times in the last year. I have been asked to re-input my Firefox password. Now it wants me to sync Firefox with my (android) phone.

For some reason, Firefox has not been installed on my phone, although other browsers that I have never previously heard of seem to have auto-installed themselves.

I have tried to download the "no fuss" version of Firefox, but it is asking for credit card details. Other browsers allowed me to skip this step, but Firefox will not allow me to proceed, and does not provide a "skip" facillity.

I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to allow my credit card details to be stored on my phone or in a browser. Storing the credit card data would not confer any advantage, because I have multiple credit cards, and I select the card for each transaction according to my location, the currency being billed, and whether the card offers cashback or loyalty points for the type of transaction I am making.

Has anybody else encountered this problem ?

I have added (as a start) some web shortcuts to my Firefox Focus home screen. However, they are cut off, so I can only see the top part of the label. I can work out what they are but what happens when I add more shortcuts? How can I see the whole shortcut and label, please? I'm using Android version 14.

My TV listings website says I need to disable my ad blocker. EXCEPTIONS is not highlighted on the customize settings page for Firefox focus. How do I make an EXCEPTION for this one website?

I am using a samsung phone. When I try to copy a text from the firefox focus browser, only one word can be copied at a time. This problem does not occur when using any other browser or app in my phone.

Utterly insane that this is being forced on users of Firefox Focus in Android.

how do I remove the options for Search with Amazon and Search with Bing on the right click context menu?

In Firefox Focus for Android Version 110.1.0 Build#370591223 the option 'Add Shortcut' does not appear in the menu anymore. It was there prior to the update yesterday. I still have several shortcuts listed on the home page when Focus opens which I cannot remove, but that's a different issue.

Has this feature been removed from Firefox Focus for Android?

I tried to go to emoji.gg and it says that i have an adblocker on. "No biggie, ill just go to the settings and disable it.". I cant find anything that mentions adblocker.

Your original thread was /questions/1417444. This received from James on 4/7/23 following screenshots of my page being submitted. Any further news?. I'm still being blocked, which is why I have to take this route back to you. The above highlighted thread gets blocked by Focus so won't send

Hi I have discovered that when trying to login to https://help.ui.com it seems that some kind of redirection is broken just in Firefox focus.

I am able to successfully login to that website in Chrome, Normal Firefox and duckduckgo.

Step 1: navigate to https://help.ui.com on Android FF Focus Step 2: click the hamburger menu at the top Step 3: click login Step 4: witness the brokenness

I downloaded foxfire focus on my pixel phone. When I sign into my e-mail and certain websites the browser is showing not secure. I try to login from that phone but couldn’t because the links didn’t work.

Can’t get pictures it flashes up so quickly can’t catch a picture. What would cause browser not being secure.

How can I open a blank new tab in Firefox Focus browser on Android. The only option now seems to be to press and hold a link in the existing webpage and to select Open link in private tab? Thank you

In Focus, autorotate, which I use frequently, suddenly stopped working yesterday. I tried turning it off/on a few times and uninstall/reinstall. No change.

Please help.
