Firefox for Android Community Forum

Since I upgraded to the latest version, Firefox is sluggish and crashes on a regular basis. I have changed my privacy settings from strict to default, has not changed the problem. How can I go back to old version? I choose Firefox because of the privacy concerns, and understand that some websites won't work well, but I've never experienced consistent problems with the app crashing.

I have a Huawei P30 Pro and beta Firefox browser. When I try to view my passwords on Firefox, it brings up a lock screen password prompt. This page requires my password, but the password is not recognized, even though it is correct. The lock screen password works in other situations but not in Firefox

The instructions to allow the brave search to work from the address bar have never been able to work. So I'm willing to try this suggested "startpage" search, but they recommend to install it via an xpi file. Currently Firefox on my Android will not access the xpi file how do I change this?

Hi,

I accidentally deleted my Firefox account on my Windows laptop and lost all my data. However, my Samsung S24 still shows my data, although it indicates that the last sync was on March 6. How can I sync my laptop with my mobile phone to recover the data from my phone? When I click "Sync Now" on my phone, nothing happens. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

unfortunately the device "Xiaomi" ... is the one that by accident I clicked close tabs (I have a neuromuscular disease) and the all dissappeared. This Xiaomi I was bookmarking all my open tabs and inactive tabs, to move them all to the new device. Unfortunately they disappeared. everything. I switched off internet connection immediately, because syncing Because syncing to other devices is always with tabs.... and this way, I always moved the synced tabs from an android phone to Desktops, opened them there all and bookmarked.

Now last time I synced desktop (Lenovo) was one year ago. I tried on a new one with another Redmi phone, but I can't see yhe Xiaomi one, only to this new one...S 15449.

The thing is I see the bookmarks from this one to my Xiaomi, and this Redmi was synced to my Xiaomi, where it says it has the information before the accident (the Xiaomi is offline now) but it's not showing in the tabs region "see other devices" only the new S 15449.

I add some pictures. Shouldn't this device seeing the Xiaomi as it was before? I hope you could help me please 🙏🏻🥺. It was over 100 Tabs they're re very important to me. On the third photo I even can see them "opened" but how to see them here, besides what pops in my head there were there.

Best wishes, Margarita

I got a Galaxy s25u and used samsung smartswitch to transfer data from my s24u.Firefox and all it's bookmarks history and passwords have synched but my open and inactive tabs have not transfered. 2 years ago I used samsung smartswitch to transfer data from a xiaomi mi10 pro to a Galaxy s23u and firefox open and inactive tabs were transfered. Last year I got a Galaxy s24u and used samsung smartswitch to transfer data from the s23u to the s24u. Again all my inactive and open tabs I'm firefox were transferred. I can still see inactive tabs from 2 years ago that I opened on my s23u on my s24u but I cannot see those same tabs on my s25u. Also if I sync I can see the tabs in synced tabs but after an hour synched tabs is empty. I've had my Galaxy s25u for 6 weeks and I need to sell my s24u but I cannot because I do not want to loose all my tabs. This is costing me a lot of time and money. I also recently closed firefox on my pc (using a different firefox account to my android device) behind the main window was another open window which I then closed. This means that the entire 200 tab session is lost as firefox only has one restore point that overwrites immediately, "restore previous session" no longer exists and tab the tab session manager add on has not worked for 4 years. Mozilla is not my favourite company at the moment.
