I absolutely love Firefox on PC so thought I’d try it on iOS and while I really want to move from Safari to Firefox so I can sync across devices, I simply can’t move to iOS Firefox when the address bar wastes so much screen space. It’s an eyesore and incredibly distracting for seemingly no reason as there’s a lot of empty space; it could easily be half the size. If you guys could offer different address bar designs that would be amazing because something similar to the small address bar in iOS Safari would be great. It’s very rare I criticise anything to do with Firefox but sorry, it needed addressing (pardon the pun).

The refresh button in my firefox desktop browser suddenly disappeared. One day the usage was normal, but on the next launch of the browser, there was no refresh button. I currently use the "F5" button to refresh but it would be better to use the button again.

Subject: Feedback: Please Show Full URLs by Default and Disable “Show Search Terms in Address Bar” by Default

Hello Mozilla Firefox Team,

I would like to suggest two changes to Firefox’s default address bar behavior that would improve transparency, usability, and user trust.

1. Show Full URL Addresses by Default

  Currently, Firefox hides parts of the URL such as “https://” and sometimes simplifies the displayed address. I believe Firefox should display the complete URL at all times by default, including:
  • Protocol (`https://`)
  • Full subdomains (`www`, `m`, etc.)
  • Complete path when relevant

Displaying the full address helps users:

  • Better verify website authenticity
  • Detect phishing or deceptive domains more easily
  • Understand exactly where they are navigating
  • Maintain consistency with technical and professional workflows


2. Disable “Show Search Terms in the Address Bar on Results Pages” by Default

  The feature that replaces the actual search engine URL with the search query text can be confusing and reduces transparency. Many users expect the address bar to show the real URL of the page they are visiting.

I recommend disabling this feature by default because:

  • It hides useful navigational information
  • It makes copying/searching URLs less predictable
  • It can create ambiguity about the actual site/page being viewed
  • Advanced and privacy-conscious users generally prefer seeing the real URL

Users who prefer the simplified search-term display could still enable it manually in settings.

Firefox has traditionally been a browser focused on user control, openness, and transparency. These changes would align well with those principles.

Thank you for your work on Firefox and for considering this feedback.

Firefox ignores css style for hamburger menu after updating from 150.0.3 to 151

I have custom userChrome file that made my history and hamburger menu (application menu / settings) text and distances smaller since Firefox introduced this ugly feature, trying to be cool in windows 10 times. Nowadays even windows 11 brings back compact mode but firefox still uses huge spacing. I just fixed issue with custom CSS and forgot about it. Unfortunately, after updating to FF 151, my CSS is ignored and I am forced to new ugly context menu. What is weird, I still have good small pacing when right-clicking pages, UI elements and when I enter bookmarks. Only places that ignore my CSS are hamburger menu for settings and list under history view. I do not really understand this code, I just copied it from someone else. Can someone help me fix this issue?

menupopup > menu, menupopup > menuitem{ padding-block: 3px !important; min-height: 0px !important; }

root{

--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 0px !important; }

Running on Windows 11. There are many supposed "solutions" on the Web, but none of them work. I have tried with: about:config, css files, etc. None of them work.

I like Firefox greatly, but this is so frustrating.

The developers have created a solution to a problem that didn't exist. The result is to make Firefox user clumsy.

It would have been nice if they - at the very least - had provided a way to change the 'Profiles' icon position on the menu.

Again, Firefox 153.0.1 (64-bit) on up-to-date Windows 11. Amd Ryzen 5, 6 core processor, 32 GB Ram, 500 GB SSD C drive = 197 GB free.

As of 20 August 2026 Firefox update, my right-click menu is messed up. It USED to be black with white text; now it's unreadable gray with slightly darker gray text. Putting Firefox in "Dark Mode" brings that back, but makes everything ELSE completely unusable. I use the "default" setting under the Appearance Settings, and always have (as in really always, from the day Firefox was first available). I use "Orion Nebula Center" by Lightyear, and have done for years. Disabling it doesn't do anything as far as the right-click window. I've uploaded a screenie of the specific menu, in case my description isn't clear. I did try a Firefox "recommended" add-on called Stylebot, but it appears to work only on a specific element of a specific page, and not globally to correct the issue on any/all windows. How can I get the black background, white text version of the right-click menu back? Thanks!

Since Firefox just added profiles, the app icon on my Mac now has a little heart on it to show which profile I'm using? But I'm the only one who uses this computer, so I don't need the profile icon. It just makes me think I have a notification every time I scroll over the dock. How do I remove this from the icon?

After the most recent Firefox update, my background colors are black, they were white before the update. I have attempted to change the settings for the background, no improvement.

I contacted the place that put my laptop PC together for me, one of their service techs spent close to an hour attempting the sames steps I tried. Did not fix. They said if they learn anything, they'll contact me.
