Firefox Community Forum

Latest android Firefox application downloaded from google play, does not show the VPN Yes i tried all options on settings. and there is no access to about:config to change browser.ipProtection.enabled to true as it solved same problem at all Firefox for windows browsers, No access to any about:policies studies etc..

Studies is enabled at settings but no VPN there.

after reading ALL (official forum blog support and unofficial last month) pages and posts about that and did all I could.

Regional irrelevant as SAME WiFi I easily enable VPN on Firefox for windows as I explained above but again I am writing about ANDROID so all replies try to control yourself and not copy paste answers help for windows Firefox and irrelevant for android firefox.

Please only answers from experienced same issue or you manage to recreate it and solve it or if it work for your Firefox for android and you are using an older version please help.

Thank you.

My browser was recently updated to 150.0.2, and on the new launch page after update describing new features, it prompted me that the new free mozilla vpn was available to try. When I clicked on the link to follow the steps to set it up, it said to click the vpn icon in the toolbar, but I don't see that icon there. When I go to more tools -> customize toolbar to try to find that icon to add it back, it doesn't appear among the toolbar options. Is this something I still don't have access to because it's in a limited beta, or is there some other way I should be accessing this?

I was not given a VPN setup on restarting Firefox, and have no VPN icon in my toolbar. I have tried using customise toolbar, but there is no VPN icon to add back. Version 150.0, automatically opened to "What's New in Firefox 150" on starting Firefox, just without a new VPN icon. Thanks

Hello there, I just wanted to ask for any details regarding the new VPN feature. I seem to not have it (probably due to my region not being the US or the UK) and I was wondering, when can we expect it to be available to the rest of the world? How is it even free with this high limit? I know the feature is new and is probably still getting tested. But I would appreciate any and all info possible. Thank you!

I want to setup the VPN in firefox but the instructions refer to the VPN icon which is not visible to me. When I try to add it to the toolbar the instructions say to click more tools from the menu at the top right, but there isn't a selection called more tools.

Why is Firefox sending me email msg's saying to try the new firefox VPN when It doesn't seem to be available to me? It's not in the upper right corner as they state and it's not in the toolbar either which they also say it's suppose to be in!

I'm using Firefox 150, but I don't see a VPN button, not even in the extension drop-down menu. There's only a new button for my Firefox account (F). When I click it, I can only choose the paid VPN options.

Currently the built-in VPN operates via a blacklist system. Where it is turned on browser wide, with exception of sites you manually add to the blacklist where it will turn itself off when on those sites.

To preserve the allotted 50gb data limit for using the VPN, I would ideally need to turn the vpn off of every website that I don't need it to be on which is extremely tedious even if it's a one-time annoyance.

It would be better if instead(or in addition to) we had a whitelist option where we could have the VPN not be active browser wide, with exception of any site we add to the whitelist. I would much prefer this because there's only a handful of sites that I would need the VPN to be on.

I do NOT want to use ANY VPN services. Since you introduced this, or rather, forced it on me, my browsing experience has been terrible. How do I turn off VPN? There is no VPN icon on my topolbar despite what your instructions say.

I see the VPN box on the top right of the browser. I clicked on Get Started, I signed in. But nothing happens, I cannot turn on the VPN. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Hello there,

I downloaded and installed the new Firefox browser in basis getting a FireFox VPN for free (50Gb a month). However, upon installation and signing, I found that I have no or can't see Firefox VPN of the tool bar to enable.

Can you explain why this is the case.

many thanks ukbabu

When connecting to school wifi, it detects firefox VPN and doesn't allow me to do anything on the internet and I always end up having to use my mobile hotspot, which I have limited use of. Is there a way to remove the feature from firefox or fully disable it to where it's not active even just to let me enable it? It's driving me nuts.
