Firefox for Android Community Forum

I have Instagram and other social media installed as PWAs,and when I get notifications on my phone for example 'someone liked your post' or 'you have a new message' when I tap on them it takes me to Instagram's home page (or any other social media home page respectively) instead of getting me to the mentioned action as it should happen!

I want to make messsage rules to automatically move incoming emails to folders. I cnat fine the 'tools' button on the menu: Create a new filter 1. Click the Application menu button New Fx Menu and then Tools followed by Message Filters.

is this feature not implemented in the android version?

I need to enable popups for a site that I use frequently for work. I keep getting an error message saying to enable them, but I don't see a way to do it. The dialog box asks if I want to allow the page to open, but it just goes to a blank page. It works fine on my laptop. I run strict ETP, but have turned it off for this site.

Help, been searching for hours. I'm missing something obvious or I'm blind. Where is a copy to clipboard (without an extension) icon? (Long press, copy is so lame.)

IE: Single tap and the following appear right below the bar.

I was literally overjoyed when I discovered the use desktop view as default setting under the site permissions settings in 133.0 when I installed it on my Android phone (not tablet). I enabled it, and it worked exactly as expected—fantastic!

Unfortunately, the next day it was gone again, and the browser's behavior is as if I never enabled this setting. Please, where did it go, and how do I get it back? Failing that, is there a configuration variable that can be set manually to achieve the same behavior?

I'm using Firefox Mobile Beta on Android (org.mozilla.firefox_beta). A recent upgrade (to version 134 beta) has introduced a UI change so that there are now two different “bars”: the address (URL) bar that was already present, and a new bar (which I highlighted in purple in the attached screenshot) that contains the “back” and “forward” buttons (that used to be part of the three dots menu) as well as a “new tab” button and the three dots menu button that used to be on the address bar. Not knowing how to call it, I'll refer to this new bar as the “new toolbar”.

The settings (in “Customize” → “Address bar location”) provide a way to move the address bar either to the top (as in my screenshot) or to the bottom of the screen (I think bottom is the default).

Alas, this setting does not apply to the new toolbar. It remains stuck at the bottom. I have been unable to find a way to move it to the top. Googling for help returns nothing useful as the UI change is recent.

I find this UI to be disastrous to the point of being unusable. No other Android app I use has the (three dots or hamburger) “menu” button at the bottom right: it's always at the top right. So I keep clicking on “reload” which is situated (in the address bar) right where the “menu” button used to be.

QUESTION: Is there a way to either restore the previous interface or, at least, move the new toolbar (or at the very least the menu button) to the top of the screen rather than the bottom?

I would like to draw attention to the fact that it is very important to solve this issue before 134 becomes stable, or users risk abandoning Firefox Mobile over this UI change if there is no way to revert it.

Website location access doesn't work. It prompts to allow, but the allow button does nothing. Location is enabled in Android settings and I've fully reset the app, disabled all extensions but nothing has fixed it. Please see video below of issue.

In the picture is what im talking about. The bar thingy in the picture was always conveniently at the top of my screen but suddenly this evening it is down there. I've tried to search in the settings and online how to change it back but I couldn't find anything. I hope you can help me get the bar thingy back to the top.

I found that everytime the web request a permission, like location, microphone. I click 'allow' button, but it's never work.

But when I click 'dont' allow' button, it's work.

Maybe it's a bug? Please help me check it.

Just wondering why Firefox on Android does not allow default desktop view of things such as Google Drive and to open Google docs in browser? I need the full Google Docs in the browser as the Docs app does not have all the things I need, such as equation editor. I have the Samsung Tab S10 Ultra so I know it is capable of doing this, I do it in Chrome on this tablet all the time, but would love to move over to Firefox, but can't because of this. Even the Samsung Internet app will allow this. Seems like Firefox really has not supported larger screen and more powerful Android devices properly.

I'm trying to add Google chrome or any other search engine in as an additional one. So to add a new search engine you have to title it and then add in its address. I cannot figure out how to write this out correctly. Could someone please help. Thank you kindly.

Why does Firefox for Android not have a better tab view on larger screens. I want to be able to easily switch between tabs on a large screen. I have the Tab S10 Ultra. I have been using Samsung Internet on my tablet as it looks like a browser on a computer with the large screen, but I want to use Firefox, but it needs to be easier to use on a large screen Android.
