Firefox for Android Community Forum

Since I am on my new Phone (Xiaomi Poco F6, Hyper OS 1.0.4.0, Android 14.UKQ1.240116.001), I have this weird thing with Firefox that when I minimize it and then come back a few seconds later, it will automatically reload the tab I was on. Which is extremely annoying because, for example, I was on the Paypal page and was getting my login code from messages, then when I got back on the Paypal page it reloaded and I could not insert the code, but had to click on 'send code' again (and again and again). I saw this issue appear multiple times apparently already on reddit and co. But nowhere I could find an answer to it. Someone? I looked in the battery saver settings and in firefox settings etc, but I can't find anything that makes tabs reload automatically and it makes no sense that anything would clear the cache every time I minimize firefox, no?

Fix this old bug please https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1367481 I record video but can attach only useless image

The Firefox browser app for android for the last year or so refreshes tabs if I leave them for even a moment. If I go to another tab and then back, they both refresh even if it's just been a minute. If I leave Firefox (with the window open) to check another app and then go back, the tab I had open refreshes.

I can't fill out a lot of forms unless I don't leave the tab the entire time, I can't log into a lot of sites with two-factor authentication because leaving Firefox to check my emails or texts for the codes makes the log-in page refresh, and I can't even upload pictures to other sites because the tab refreshes when I open my gallery or camera.

It's not specific to any site, it is an issue with the tabs and I've been waiting for a fix to it for over a year. I know it's not just me, I've tried clearing my cache and looking in the settings for a solution and I've seen a lot of other people talk about it too. This wasn't an issue when I originally installed the app, it only became a problem after an update.

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well 🌻 I'm using the latest version of Firefox as of today on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro, and I have a problem when switching between apps and then switching back to Firefox the pages reload even if I don't have many apps running in the background (so I don't think it's a ram issue and I don't experience it with other browsers) and this gets so annyoing when I'm viewing pages with many images such as manga because the images need to reload each time entirely

Thanks in advance and I hope you have a wonderful day 🌸

Whenever the app leaves the foreground, even for half a second, or if I switch tabs and then return to the original tab, it refreshes and I lose all the data on it. When I need to copy information to fill out a form, or get a code from a 2fa app, I lose all the the progress. This is driving me crazy and making it almost impossible for me to use Firefox as my main browser. I shouldn't have to restart a whole form because I got a phone call and went to the call screen for a second. Battery optimizations are all disabled.

On my S24 when I use Firefox the screen starts flickering and it's impossible to navigate. Only fix is to restart the phone. Online there are lot of users of the S24 series that complaints about this issue. Can you please provide a fix? Or I will have to find an alternative for Firefox

On my Android phone, Xiaomi Mi12T Pro, when i leave Firefox and open it up again, it always reloads the before opened tabs page. I disabled all battery optimization for this app and it still has to reload the tab after having the app closed for a small time.

To be really homest, I never had this kin of problem in chrome, your youtube video player has too many bugs. The issues I've faced are: 1.Whenever I play a video, it is always choppy which is so frustrating. 2.This happened so many times, when I turn switch into full screen mode the whole app crashes.

Please look into this issue, I like the UI and that is the reason why I'm still using mozrilla on my phone.

When I tapped on the firefox widget on my phone this morning, it showed "google.com" in the address bar but the page was blank. I checked this on my wife's phone and my tablet and the exact same thing happens. I tried turning off my two add blockers to see if that would make a difference but it did not. I then uninstalled and reinstalled firefox on my phone from the Google Store and logged back in and it still acted the same way. For fun, I then turned on "Desktop site" in the menu and then my normal google.com page opened up. When I turned off 'desktop site', it went back to a blank screen with the "home" icon, the address bar, number of tabs open box and the 3 dots menu bar showing on top, but nothing else. I then opened my computer and works fine on my desktop. So, not sure what is happening but definitely some problem with "google.com" address on firefox (unless I toggle on "desktop site".) I also cleared my cache (which of course, was completely empty when I deleted and then added on the firefox app at the google store). Seems like might be a problem on your end? Especially since seems to happen on all four android devices that I have. I've also attached screenshots of the two pages I get, the first regular, the second with 'desktop site' toggled on.

Using Android FF, when selecting Google.com,it only loads blank white page. Entire screen is completely blank. No error messages of any kind.

Google homepage not loading on my mobile. Done all the recommended things, reboot, restart clear cache, uninstall, reinstall nothing works. My husband then checked his phone and it is not loading on his either. Checked for updates and there are none available. We are running 121.0.1 Any advise or hepl appreciated.

On various sites, e.g. DuckDuckGo search results, parts of the text are missing. Sometimes it's one or more complete lines, sometimes it's part of the line (left, right, middle, upper, lower part). It looks like rectangles in background colour hide the text. Zooming changes the affected zones and generally makes more an more text visible again. Selecting the missing text also makes it visible. This happens on only one device. Complete deinstallation and reinstallation of Firefox for Android didn't help.

There is an issue with mobile version of Google page, page loads as white page even at freshly installed Firefox nightly without any addons etc. When searching via address bar results are presented normally, but then when click on Google button to go into main page it load white page again. In addition I have checked it in my other device and it was the same behaviour, so it seems that something wrong is with Google itself. When use option to view page in desktop/computer mode page loads normally.

Hello, when I type in google.com, which I use for my homepage it displays https://www.google.com/webhp?client=firefox-b-1-m&channel=ts And the page is white and blank.

If I switch to desktop mode it appears. If I type in the address bar it searches.

I am not sure why it's not displaying, just happened one day.

I have attached screenshots.

The google.com on Firefox on android is not working it displays a white screen each time I open Google.com
