Firefox for Android Community Forum

im get ask to turn the Java on when i cant seem to find the toggle for it every other browser i can find it. Also Im gettiing alot of redirects and overlays on sites and extremly long URLS and when i shorten them using a tool they error out and leave me going no where. Please help

A collection item on Android Firefox already has an X, so why allow deletion by swiping left or right? It is WAY TOO EASY to accidentally delete an item by nudging it left or right while clicking it. And there is no warning pop-up. How about an option to disable left/right swipe delete? Or just remove the gestures entirely. Thanks.

Hi. I use Firefox for Android. In settings, there is an option called "external download manager" (an approximate translation from my language; framed on the screenshot anyway). And I can't resolve the difference whether I turn it on or not. What does this affect? Thanks in advance!

I can save a bookmark, then see it in Firefox for desktop computer via Sync. I need editing the tags for the bookmark when creating it. Something similar was possible with Pocket (now EOL). How could I do? Is there some place on which suggest a feature request?

Thanks in advance

Regards,

Hi, my name is Richard Hagen and I live in Illinois. On two websites, Zero Hedge and Naked Capitalism I constantly have this message blocking photos, videos, quotes. I don't know how to send a screen shot but the message is always the same:

I not going to change anything as I have a right to protect myself from uninvited intruders into my personal choices of internet sites. I want these people out of my computer.

In Firefox Android, if I tap on the button to open a new tab, this new tab appears at the very end of the tab list.

As someone who has lots of browser tabs open most of the time I find this super annoying because if I research a topic further up in my list of tabs, then open a new tab to search for something related to this topic, I now have two sets of tabs related to the same topic that physically spread apart and navigating between these sets tabs becomes more frustrating the more unrelated tabs lie in between them.

I went through Firefox' settings menu, but couldn't find any settings to change this behavior. Is there perhaps some other way to open new tabs next to the one I am currently on?

I've added the search engine default for brave in Firefox which I've used for since the beginning but it won't show up as choice in my settings choice and I added in I type it in it says the string is wrong. It is not wrong it doesn't add in because your software browser Firefox isn't working correctly what is the problem.

Currently it says removed if I try to add it again yet it doesn't show up why?

Please fix your browser so it adds in easily it should I should be able to click it it shows up in my choices I make it my default and then it works fine it doesn't do that because you've added too much crap

Extremely frustrating

Am i the only one that finds these instructions totally hopeless when syncing my desktop to phone?.. So i tap on the 3 dots / Menu in Firefox on mobile, but after that there is NO Sync & Save Data to tap on anywhere in Firefox mobile after hitting the menu dots??.. and i mean ANYWHERE in the menu, or settings or account (of course there is the ususl Syncronise Now option in the account.

So just where is this Sync & Save Data i would lobe to know, nevermind how am i supposed to pair my devices when theres no clear way to access this and the associated QR code?

Totally frustrating, I've never understood these instructions with no outcome possible.

I’ve observed a consistent issue across several Android devices using Firefox (latest stable version). When trying to launch or interact with certain modded APK-based games—especially those with unpacked resources or modified DEX structures—Firefox either freezes or crashes unexpectedly.

Interestingly, this behavior doesn’t occur on other browsers like Chrome or Samsung Internet. In fact, some third-party websites seem to handle these APKs with stable performance, suggesting it's not an issue with the APKs themselves but possibly how Firefox handles local server callbacks, file-based intents, or memory allocation under WebView.

I’m wondering if this could be tied to Firefox’s stricter security sandboxing, CSP enforcement, or service worker management?

Are there any logs, flags, or debugging routes I can use to isolate the problem further?

Jump to Firefox browser within the app, and there is no translation button in the upper right corner menu.All browsers in the Chromium series have this function, whether it is Chrome or Edge, I hope a translation button can be added.
