Description: In the mobile version of Firefox, the top browser toolbar containing the address bar does not hide when entering text into a text field. As a result, a significant amount of screen space is taken up, especially when the on-screen keyboard is open.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a page in Firefox on a mobile device. 2. Tap any text field. 3. Open the on-screen keyboard. 4. Start entering text. 5. Observe the top browser toolbar containing the address bar.

Actual result: The browser toolbar with the address bar remains visible while entering text and does not hide.

Expected result: When text input begins and the on-screen keyboard appears, the top browser toolbar should hide to provide more space for the content and text field.

Environment:

- Browser: Firefox for Android - Version: 153.0.4 - Device: Mobile IQOO Z10 - Screen orientation: Portrait

Attachment: A screenshot demonstrating the issue is attached to the report.

Additional information: The issue occurs specifically while entering text: even though the on-screen keyboard is open, the browser's top toolbar remains visible.

I have selected 'Dark/Auto' in my customization settings. I assumed this setting was meant strictly for the Firefox app UI theme, not to automatically force dark mode onto web pages. However, the issue now is that websites are being forcibly rendered in dark mode. I actually appreciate forced dark mode because it renders images and colored text cleanly without messing them up. The real problem is that I can't seem to find any option to turn it off. When I try enabling dark mode using a website's own native toggle, it displays inverted/negative colors, whereas light mode works properly. So my question and issue come down to this: how do I disable the feature that automatically forces dark mode on the websites I browse? (I haven't been able to find this setting anywhere.)

Hello!

I would like to report a UI display issue in Firefox for Android, version 153.0.4.

In the tab overview, the bottom bar displays the tracker-blocking information in Russian as “заблокировано 6 трекеров” (“6 trackers blocked”). However, the text does not fit in the available space and partially goes behind the three-dot menu button on the right, so the text is cut off.

I have attached a screenshot showing the issue.

Please check the layout and positioning of the bottom bar elements to ensure that the tracker-blocking text is fully visible and does not overlap with the three-dot button.

Thank you!

Hello Firefox Support Team,

I am experiencing a UI/layout issue with Firefox for Android on my tablet.

Device information:

Device: iQOO Pad 5 Pro Operating system: OriginOS 6 HD Android version: Android 16 Firefox version: 153.0.3 Build: 2016176519

The problem is that the regular Firefox version does not use the proper tablet layout on my device. Instead, Firefox appears to use the smartphone/phone layout, even when the tablet is used in landscape orientation. The interface does not make proper use of the large tablet display and looks like the phone version stretched or displayed on a tablet.

The device itself is configured with a smallest width of 820 dp, so Android should clearly recognize it as a large-screen/tablet device.

Interestingly, Firefox Nightly 155.0a1 works correctly on exactly the same device. Nightly displays the proper tablet-optimized interface and makes appropriate use of the full screen.

Therefore, this appears to be a difference between the current stable Firefox release and Firefox Nightly rather than an OriginOS limitation.

Could you please check whether the tablet UI improvements/fix present in Firefox Nightly 155.0a1 are expected to be included in a future stable Firefox release, or whether there is a way to enable the same tablet layout in Firefox 153.0.3?

I can also provide screenshots showing the difference between Firefox Stable and Firefox Nightly on the same device if needed.

Thank you for your help.

Firefox will often display itself in light mode when dark mode is active. Rarely the opposite though.

It happens randomly as far as I can tell, but maybe there's a pattern to it somehow, perhaps regarding doze mode?

Would love to know if I'm not the only one, and maybe if there's a way to fix it, or there's a bug report for it already that we can follow for updates.

As a dedicated user, I strongly request that you redesign the Firefox UI/UX to be exactly like Google Chrome. I urge your design team to take a close look at the Google Chrome Android application, as its interface is the gold standard for user experience. Currently, many users in our community feel that Firefox’s interface lacks the modern, intuitive, and perfectly polished feel that Chrome offers. We face several usability issues compared to the smooth experience Chrome provides. By adopting a layout, tab system, and overall aesthetic similar to Chrome, you would make the browser feel much more modern and efficient. This is a request echoed by a large number of users who want to stick with Firefox but find themselves missing the seamless interface of Chrome. We really hope you will consider this transformation to make Firefox feel as perfect and user-friendly as possible. Thank you for your hard work and for taking our feedback into account."

Hi there

After the latest update some features like (address/tab bar customisation) are missing or frozen, I cannot now move the address bar to the bottom, which is very annoying and inconvenient. Could you please help me fixing this issue?

A Screenshot is attached.

안드로이드용 Firefox에서 화면 확대/축소 기능을 찾기 어렵고, 글자크기 확대/죽소 기능은 아에 없는 문제가 있습니다.

곧바로 화면 확대/축소 와 글자 크기 변경 가능하게 인터페이스를 개선해 주시고.

화면 확대시에는, 글 입력할 때 갑자기 화면이 더 확대되서 유튜브(Desktop mode) 등에서 동시에 동영상 시청할 시에 큰 장애가 발생합니다.

글 입력할 때 자동으로 더 확대가 안되게 해주세요.

개선 부탁합니다.

When I use Firefox on Samsung DeX, a blank and big box appears under the address bar. This box disappears when I place the address bar on the bottom. Switching back to the top brings the box back. What might be causing this?

Thanks in advance.

I prefer the light mode fire fox browser, as it contrasts with my system's dark mode so I can easily distinguish what I'm looking at. However, Firefox Android's light mode is appearing as black for me. Dark mode works normally, and it's a dark grey. The frustrating thing is yesterday it seemed fine, with light mode being white.

My firefox updated and it completely changed the look of the app, now it is ugly and unusable. How do i make the browser tool bar look like it did before? I need to have the back and forward buttons available next to URL, THAT IS LITERALLY THE ONLY REASON I PREFERRED THIS APP. How do I get the back and dorward buttons back and make the url bar easier to read like it was before gv 0

Text in certain languages is rendered as boxes. If I copy this text and paste it in other applications/see the clipboard, the text is perfectly visible over there. Also, if I turn off advanced protection the text becomes visible on Firefox. This wasn't the case earlier, keeping advanced protection on would still render text. Happening since long, so don't have track for version history and when started to happen. Firefox (general release) on Android. Tried on other devices too, was able to replicate, thus not device specific.

Hello,

Not sure if there is a new bug open for this issue, but colors have been off for awhile now on Tab row on top for Firefox Android. I noticed on the new Nightly, the colors are changing for address bar and the tab row section.

Unfortunately colors are still off. Not sure if I should open a new bug for this?

I am using Pixel Tablet. I have same issue on multiple other android tablets too. (OnePlus Go). The only one without an issue is Samsung tablet I have.

Image attached of how it looks on the new Nightly.

I have a bug filed about this from quite awhile but that was for stable android. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1971473

I'm not sure if there is a new section to follow along with the new work being done? Colors are still off.

How to change the font of web text in the Firefox browser on Android for the Asia-Pacific region, for example, how to choose different fonts for Chinese fonts? Can the Android version of Firefox have a built-in setting that allows the system font to be used directly as the default font for web content or the interface?

我使用了mfga的root模块（https://github.com/Numbersf/MakeFontsGreatAgain），但是网页并不是正常显示英文字体而是花体。
