I have asked this in the forums but have had no response. I'm wondering why Firefox now requires the permission "Request delete packages"? Given it already has the "Query all packages" permission (I also wonder why it needs that), does this mean it can now delete all my apps? Why does it need this as I'm at a loss to understand the necessity for a web browser to need this permission.

The passwords of hundreds of emails with their passwords across various websites for my account are not showing up in mozilla Firefox android I have tried synchronising on this Xiaomi device and one other Xiaomi android, my account has ticked the options for saving my data on the app and website since I started using Firefox due to privacy concerns a few years back...I cannot access on other browser Chrome when logging into my account via website either. I deleted 30 or so emails when I was on my Samsung android tablet because I was unable to print or save them all as a file from the app there, but I was able to view them.


How can I access my mozilla account passwords for this email in the password manager? Since only Firefox password was left...

i setup synology openvpn and can log in via Chrome on my phone (openvpn is setup on phone also to connect to NAS). However, doing the same thing with FF causes FF to do a google search and it comes back saying it cant search it because it is AI or gives me a blank screen that goes no where. For the record, Samsung browser doesnt work either. It isnt a showstopper because Chrome works. But I would like to know why FF does not work and if it is pilot error. I use the same address I use in chrome (https://192.168.xxx.xxx:5001) and also the ddns address https://[name].synology.me:5001 that produces the AI message.

Bluetooth audio/video sync lag and micro-stutters on web media players'''

Device: Honor Magic 8 Pro (Android) Issue: When Bluetooth headphones are connected, watching videos on movie/TV show websites causes micro-stuttering and lag in both audio and video. Troubleshooting done: Disabling AV1, toggling hardware decoding, and changing various about:config media settings (like audio-offload, cache size) did not resolve the issue. Note: The videos play perfectly smooth on Chromium-based browsers (Brave/Chrome) under the exact same conditions with the same Bluetooth headphones. The synchronization issue seems specific to the GeckoView engine.

I believe in a recent update clicking a link in my email apps to open a website on my phone has stopped opening the link in my main Firefox Browser app, and instead is opening in this pseudo web browser tied to the email apps. I have tried it with links in both gmail and AOL and they both open in this pseudo browser that I then have to click a meatball menu and select to open the page in Firefox proper. I am just trying to figure out if this is a setting I am missing so I don't have to go through extra steps each time I'm just trying to open a link.

Apparently, there must be a flaw with Mozilla Account where it relates to being logged in and the browser crashing within 2 minutes of use. WHENCi'm logged into my Mozilla Account to sync bookmarks, etc., the browser crashes within about 2 minutes of browsing after the fact. I know about there being some issue with Java causing the issue, (see prior questions posed in this forum), but it's getting pretty dawned annoying. Ai have to LOG OUT of the Mozilla Account to be able to use the browser.

This mainly occurs on a Samsung Galaxy Tab running the latest version of Android and Samsung's One UI. this is still occurring despite updating to the current Android version of the browser. I'm attaching a screenshot of the most recent crashes that Haven't experienced for review.

Can someone please look into this issue? If a solution can be found, can it be pushed out automatically?

THANKS!
