Firefox for Android Community Forum

Everytime I try to save an Image or video file, Firefox on Android just says download failed without explaining how or why.

I've tried clearing the cache. I've tried clearing download and search history. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app.

I don't know what else to do.

Seemingly whenever and wherever I try to download an image on Firefox Nightly for android, it's strangely deleted in a few minutes or less. I see that people get a similar issue in private browsing, but even in normal browsing, all my images that I download are deleted. When I look in downloads in Firefox, there's no record of them being downloaded. I've verified that Chrome and Samsung Internet work just fine; I can download images on them without them being deleted, and it occurs on any website. My phone is a Samsung S21+ for reference. It doesn't happen for certain images, but it happens enough to where it's a big problem.
