Firefox maka Android Community Forum

I use Firefox on 3 devices, a Win10 64bit laptop, a Google Pixel5 and a Samsung TabA. I have a lot of bookmarks and a lot of folders, and I have 2 problems: Most of the folders are missing on the Android devices, and it seems that many if not all of the associated bookmarks are there but not in any folder. I clicked on one the bookmarks and it showed as being in the proper folder.

The other problem is that if I bookmark a page in one of the Android devices it is automatically placed in the last folder used and there's no way to place it in any other folder or create a new top level folder. I think I've had these problems for five or six months.

I've tried multiple resyncs on all the devices, and also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox on the Pixel, with no luck. I'm using the latest versions of Firefox.

Any help would be much appreciated.

ChatGPT says got to Settings, Google's AI overview says I can access them by going Menu > More Tools > Web Developer Tools. But I can't see that option. Do I have to enable the feature somehow or do I have to use a remote debugging option over USB? I want to use the equivalent of the Inspect tool on desktop.

I've recently upgraded from an a34 to an a56, both phones running the same build of Firefox, both signed into my account however the old phone can see the tabs of my laptop and the new phone, the new phone can't see anything. I'd like to be able to port the tabs over ideally.

Also of note is the tab view is totally different between the two phones in layout too.

I'm at a loss as to how I can painlessly move over the tabs.

Hello,

Since yesterday Firefox has been crashing within several minutes of opening the app. It initially appears to load fine, then begins to stutter and lag around 30 seconds in. At this point scrolling usually begins to stop and the Android UI locks up (can't go to home screen, etc). In addition the bottom Android bar usually flickers on and off.

The crash occurs whether a page is loading or not. It also doesn't matter which screen I'm on (the crash still happens if stay on the new tab page, load a new page, open the settings and hold there, etc). It also occurs when Twitter loads Firefox as its browser.

In most cases the app crashes with no crash log saved to about:crashes. However, around 1 in 10 attempts a crash log is generated. Here are crash stats from the two crashes that made it to

• First Report: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException
• Native crash - unhandleable OOM

Actions I have taken to try and fix the issue:

• Check for Firefox and Android updates (both versions were current)
• Clear app cache through Android system settings
• Restart phone
• Disable all extensions
• Close all tabs

I'm not certain this is the correct forum for this report. If posting here was in error please direct me to the correct bug reporting platform.

Thanks

Is there a way to shorten the toast message for closing a tab? I believe it's longer than 5 seconds (I slow counted to 7), which seems excessive.

My (personal, sure) reason for asking is that my RSS reader's "next" button is immediately beneath the toast, so if I've opened and closed an article I have to wait 5 seconds to get to the next.

My manual workaround has been to just leave tabs open and close them en masse, but that's a bit risky, given other tabs I'd like to keep open.

The message in referencing is at the bottom of the screenshot I've attached.

It would be ideal if I could turn them off entirely: I know that I closed a tab, after all?

Thanks at least for listening!

Help! I need a direct download of the current version of Firefox for android. I do not want to get it via Google play store and have to sign in for it there because I do not trust them. Can anyone at Firefox provide me with a direct link please? Thanks guys.

As is well known, Firefox China（ https://www.firefox.com.cn , which is now inaccessible and can be viewed on the history page in the Internet Archive.) The service was stopped a few days ago, which led to the removal of Firefox for Android from all app markets in Chinese Mainland, which means that users in Chinese Mainland will not be able to download Firefox for Android. After all, users in Chinese Mainland cannot access Google App Store. May I ask if there is any solution? Of course, I would prefer the Firefox team to restore the listing of major Chinese app stores.

简体中文标题：中国大陆用户如何下载Firefox for Android？

众所周知，Firefox中国（https://www.firefox.com.cn，现已不可访问，可在互联网档案馆查看历史页面）在前些时间停止了服务，导致所有中国大陆的应用市场都下架了Firefox for Android，这意味着中国大陆用户将无法下载Firefox for Android，毕竟中国大陆用户并不能访问谷歌应用商店。请问有什么解决办法吗？当然，我更希望Firefox团队可以恢复上架各大中国应用商店。

Hello,

I have an issue in the latest version of the android app. When I inputting any keyword into the url bar and hitting enter, instead of using my search engine to perform the search like in previous versions, the browser redirects to unrelated websites from my browsing history that vaguely share some characters with what I had entered and that did not show up in the suggestions. This makes the search bar unusable.

I wish there was a setting to not have the page refresh every time you go into another app and then come back into this one, it's impossible to multitask and extremely frustrating. It seems to happen on most pages I visit, even YouTube. Especially on pages with forms. It makes moving around on your phone to get info for forms impossible, and it's also just frustrating when you go to answer a text, come back and your progress on a video or form or shopping search has reset and started over, taking you back to the top. Is that sort of thing dependent on the website, or the browser?
