[Bug] Android Download Cancelled When Firefox is Swiped from Recent Apps (Fenix)
Description of the Issue When I start a file download (especially a large file) in Firefox for Android and then use the Recent Apps/Overview screen to swipe the Firefox app away (closing the app), the download process is immediately cancelled and cannot be resumed. Expected Behavior An active, background download should continue running even if the user closes the main Firefox application window by swiping it away from the Recent Apps list, or it should at least become a resumable failed download. Many other Android apps (like Chrome, dedicated download managers, or media players) can maintain active background tasks even when swiped from recents. Steps to Reproduce Open Firefox for Android. Navigate to a website with a large file (e.g., a 200MB test file). Start the download and confirm it is active (visible in the notification panel). Press the Home button (or swipe up) to go to the main home screen. Open the Recent Apps / Overview screen. Swipe the Firefox app card away to close it completely. Check the Android notification panel and the Firefox Downloads history. Actual Result The active download is immediately and permanently cancelled. It must be started again from the beginning, leading to data waste and user frustration, especially on slow or unstable connections.
