Put back the menu bar!!!!!!!!! Who ever thought it was a good idea to remove it should be fired immediately. Firefox far less user friendly and useful and far less better than other browsers without it!!!! Errol Simpson

The new UI makes the tabs too long, blocky, and annoying to use/traverse on mobile, it takes me nearly double the time to scroll through my tabs than it used to. I would really appreciate a way to revert this as it is making my experience unpleasant and I am genuinely considering switching to a new browser because of it.

I'm having a problem where I can't get the old menu UI back. I've done everything I could and turned off what I was supposed to to use the old menu for android but I woke up this morning and everything it back to the new UI. Everything is still turned off to make sure I was using the old menu where everything was to the right of the screen but it still won't come back up the way it's supposed to and now I don't really have a clue what to do?

I have an issue in that, upon pressing the three-dot menu button on mobile, the browser menu is suddenly popping up from the bottom of the screen instead of sliding in from the side like it's supposed to, as well as what used to be a nice and neat list of options now being a cluster of hard-to-make-out icons and buttons. I didn't change anything in the settings to make it do this (I very specifically selected the "top" display option when I first downloaded Firefox months ago and haven't touched it since), and I've already checked reddit to see if anyone else is having this problem and if so, how to return my menu's behavior and appearance to normal (no luck).

I unfortunately have no images of what my menu is supposed to look like as it never occurred to me something like this could happen, but I can at least provide a screenshot of the ugly way it looks now (notice the little bar at the top of it that suggests I'd be able to "drag" it back to its correct placement? Yeah, it doesn't do anything, no matter how long I hold my finger on it.) PLEASE tell me what can be done to undo this awful change and return my menu to normal!

Many of the changes in the newest Firefox for mobile are an improvement, but one thing that really isn't is the location of the share button. I use this feature more than any other.

It used to be that I could press and hold to select the tabs I wished to share and the share button would pop right up. Now, the menu contains a bookmark icon (star) and a bin. Meanwhile the share button is hidden under the dot menu, even though there's more than enough room for it in the header bar, even with the star and bin.

If there is currently no way to customize the quick-access icons, I encourage developers to consider making the share button more prevalent or allowing users to customize quick access, in future.

I used to constantly use Firefox on my Windows computer, but I no longer use it on my Android tablet. On Windows, I could easily access and click on my bookmarks, which were divided on the left side of the browser. This is missing on Android, and I think it's a major drawback. It made things easier and allowed faster access to the sites saved in my bookmarks. I kindly request that experts bring that ease of use to Android as well. Otherwise, I won't be able to use the Firefox browser anymore.

How can I revert the previous view (list format) of the firefox menus ? The new appearance of the menus is extremely akward (to me), compared to the previous LIST FORMAT, as displays buttons that take up a lot of space on screen.

In this new appearance of the menus, I need to search for what was previously seen at first glance.

I noticed the UI changed for Firefox for Android and part of that change is there's a slight delay/transition when opening menus or navigating between settings.

May I ask for a toggle that disables the transition so menus open immediately, like the Extensions and More dropdowns do? It would feel intuitive for it to be in the Customize options.

Right now I'm on FFfA 148.0 (Build #2016144279), not sure which version I was on before. It's not the biggest issue but does add a bit of friction to the user experience, I've got muscle memory for being able to refresh faster than I can now.

The new UI's been great otherwise!

How do I make this horribel change occured to my browser??

It was okay, fhen it changed into

this

thing and it reverted itself and I was happy

then it's like this again

It has no sense, You must have to use 2 hands at same time to browse with this new UI, it actively tries to lure you into unwanted function. I am unhappy.

Hello, I changed the app icon and now I have two 2 Firefox icons (default + retro 2024) and there's no way to remove either except by uninstall, I tried other icons and the same issue persists... As far as I know when an app has the option it's the original app icon that changes instead of creating another one so, is this intended or a bug? I'm on A11 if that helps.
