Firefox maka iOS Community Forum

I want to try firefox on my iPhone but I don’t like that it shows recent searches on the homepage and I (or anyone looking over my shoulder) can see everything I searched. I think it just looks ugly and I don’t want to remove the search everytime I want a clean looking honepage. I have tried looking for the answer everywhere but to no avail. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me. If It’s even possible.

Bug report, when opening FFiOs on iPad, the last visited webpage shows briefly then quickly switches to the default page set in settings. This should be a security issue, fire fox should go directly to set page in settings if different from “last page viewed”

Hi This issue started today. When I’m in Firefox on my iphone14 and go to the search line my shortcuts and bookmarks, etc are now in the background. How can I bring everything back so that it’s all accessible when I use the search line? The only way I can access everything in the background, is by opening a new window.

Your latest update seems to have broken Firefox on my iPhone for me ☹👎🏼 I now can’t access my Shortcuts or Bookmarks at all - they appear “shadowed” in the lower half of the screen but if I touch this area it flicks back to the last URL.

HOW DO I FIX THIS ???

Back in the days I changed from the Microsoft browser to Mozilla, to get away from updates that made no sense and that the Microsoft team couldn’t even explain themselves. Now unfortunately Im in the same place with Mozilla. To remove the Home Button makes no sense, whoever did it, will not be able to explain, what positiv has been achieved by doing it, and asking for help is a waste of time, as we don’t get any useful answer. Spending 1 hours looking through all material written by Mozilla on this subject, I even found a person writing “it was done to give the users easy access to their Home Page” and then I just had to check, that I wasn’t by mistake talking to Microsoft.

After the most recent Firefox update for iOS, none of my shortcuts work. They’re all still there - or it looks like they are - but whenever I tap on one of them, I return to the page I was just on - no loading, no changes, no nothing. I am still on iOS 18.6.2, but this wasn’t an issue before the Firefox update.

Hello,

I believe that the latest update either has a bug or a new feature that I don’t like. In the past when I went to the homescreen from a search or a website and closed and reopened the browser then it was still in the homescreen. However now when I do the same it always opens the latest search or website that I was in. I would like to have a setting to turn this off unless I missed the setting for it. I would like to add a video of me demonstrating this but for some reason you only have option to add pictures.

Kind regards, Simo

Since a recent update to iOS, my Firefox app no longer shows a "Home" icon at the bottom of the page. As a result, it is extremely difficult to go back to my home page. I've tried every possible way I can think of in Settings to restore the Home icon. This is VERY frustrating and causes a huge waste of time. Does anyone have a solution. If I can't resolve this, I'm going to be forced to switch to Safari.
