Firefox for iOS Community Forum

I have been using Firefox since I first started using computers, so for over fifteen years. Initially, I only used it on my PC, but for the past few years I have also been using it on my iPhone and iPad. Until now, I have been a very satisfied user, but for some time now I have been extremely dissatisfied with Mozilla and Firefox. I have been using Startpage as my search engine for many years and Firefox is set up that way on all my devices. But on Apple devices, every time I open the browser, Google is now set as the search engine again and I have to correct the setting every time. I find this patronising, inconsiderate and extremely rude. If this cannot be changed very quickly, Firefox will no longer be my default browser on any device. I would be very sorry to see that happen, but it really is not acceptable. Are you so short of money that you have to rip off your long-standing users? I would be very grateful for a reasonable and helpful response.

I’ve set up Kagi as my default search engine on Firefox for iOS, but every time I open the app, it seems to revert the default search engine to DuckDuckGo. Then I have to set Kagi as default again. It’s a very strange bug. I’m not sure if it only happens when you set a custom search engine as the default.

How can I stop firefox from autorefreshed and autoreload the page I am reading in my apple Iphone or on my Ipad. For some pages with lots of advertising is quite annoying.

Latest FF release announcement highlights the ability to "shake to summarize" — is this feature no yet available or is it something you have to turn on in FF iOS?

The FF web browser on mac update was pretty clear about what this is and it being a new available feature. See attached.

Tried searching for this and couldn't find anything related to this new feature. Thanks for your help!
