Firefox for Android Community Forum

Is this where I express my unhappiness with foolish and unnecessary changes to the appearance of Firefox for Android? Please make an option in Settings for square shortcuts. I hate that every icon has to be in a circle now! And you put the word 'Shortcuts' on the homepage. Are you kidding me? That is just clutter! And please let me add more than two lines of shortcuts to the homepage. Swiping to a second homepage to see the rest of my shortcuts is ridiculous. It is better for me to have 10 or 15 lines of shortcuts on one homepage and I can swipe up or down to see them all. Thank you!

Details: When I tap an option in a popup dialog, the popup closes as expected, but the tap also activates the element behind the popup.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open a webpage that shows a popup (dialog or menu).

Tap to open the popup.

Tap one of the options inside the popup.

The popup disappears, but the background element beneath the popup is also triggered. Expected Result: Only the selected popup option should be triggered. The background element should not respond to the tap after the popup closes.

Environment:

OS: Android 15

Firefox version: 142 (Release)

Additional Info:

This issue happens consistently.

I couldn’t find any existing reports of this issue, so it may be new.

When I try to write a post on https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/ the web browser breaks.

When the keyboard appears, an equally large space appears above it which is blank, and an extra bar appears at the top of the screen about the size of the status bar at the top. These then do not disappear, on any site, on any tab, until I close the browser completely.

I've not seen it happen on other sites (yet), but I have seen the blank space appear at the top on this site.

It seems to happen almost always, however I've just had to close the browser to get the bottom bit to appear because trying to take a screenshot of it and it decided to only do the top part.

I'm not sure why this thread about an unresolved problem was archived: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1416241#question-reply

I have been having this issue for a long time. The thread reports that many users have this problem. Evidently it was resolved with the upgrade to 142, but I still have the problem despite running 142.0.1.

And it's not site dependent. Even on this very site. (Attached pic has stayed at that load-- I only got around it by scrolling back through history pages until I found one that has loaded and started this question that way). The page loads somewhere between 25%-75% and then just stops. I prefer to stay on Firefox for the privacy, but more often then not I end up having to switch over to Chrome or DuckDuckGo. Can this please be resolved??

I've tried all the fixes other users have tried, to no avail.

Hi, I have 3 android devices and 2 linux computers, all with firefox nighly and synced. I deleted the history on my phone (andorid) and would like it to be synced to the other devices again and also get back the history. Is it possible to force sync one way or something like that? Or is there any other way to fix this?

hi so you know how there are shortcuts to help get places faster but the annoying thing is that every time i search something multiable times an auto shortcut is add and i have to delete it this is the annoying part shortcuts should have an option to be manually add only

On the Android Firefox app (version 141.0.3) running on my Samsung Z Flip 7 (SM-F766U1), I have set "Close tabs" to "After one day" but it doesn't seem to ever close any tabs automatically, regardless of how long they have been open. Do I need to do something else to make it work, or is this a bug? I've tried toggling the setting but it takes a full day to find out if any change has worked, so I'm hoping there's just something I've missed.
