Browser navigation freezing in private mode
Running Mozilla 151.1 (72455) on iPhone 13Pro Max using iOS 26.3.1 (a)
Anyone else experiencing the following?
If I am browsing any web page in private mode, then tap the "+" to add a new private window, I can not get to / tap on the navigation bar to type a URL. It ceases to be an input field. I have to exit the browser completely and start anew.

Ooof, there have been issues with keyboard response getting deactivated, esp. in Private Browsing, and getting more and more pronounced in the past few weeks.
There's a new version out, if you check your app store you should see an update available. Try that one if it improves things for you.
(And also, at some point ideally also update your iOS — the 26.x has its own share of bugs in the interaction and timing side of things, so it makes the keyboard bugs rather prominent :/ Every system update also helps…)
It is probably this issue: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/33583 — it got rolled out yesterday with v151.2 so you should be able to update and verify if that works for you.
