Firefox for Android Community Forum

Just got the new update 147.0.1 (Build #2016138271)

Wondering if there is any way to enable opening bookmarks in new tabs without having to menu/long press the link?

I'm pretty sure Firefox made that function by default before this update, and would be nice if they could make that a toggle option rather than wholesale disabling it.

It was actually useful (for me) on mobile. Made it easier to not lose a tab I'm currently on. Now I keep automatically losing the previous open tab with new content, kinda frustrating.

Much thanks for any responses.

Добрый день! Уже не первый раз встречается проблема когда возврат на предыдущую страницу возвращает на исходную. Например: захожу в поисковик гугл, ввожу запрос и перехожу на какой-нибудь результат, далее возвращаюсь назад и меняю свой запрос в поисковике, захожу на новую страницу из результатов, снова возвращаюсь назад, но попадаю не на последний мой запрос в поисковике а на самые первый.

Hi, i sm using live notifications when listening videos from youtube, but recently the play button stopped working. I have to phones and this happans on both, but not at my wifes. Tried to reset the phone, did not helped. Any suggestions if I may ask, please.

Current Permission Settings for Firefox to open links is set to DONT OPEN LINKS

How can I change this to ALLOW TO OPEN LINKS.

Its a big problem because I have Firefox set as Password Manager but when I get emails from sources such as banks or medical or government they wont open and so I cant get to the documents or url they send me.

I am aware of the risk of opening links that might pose security threat so I want to be able to decide for myself. I dont know how this got set to not open links. Maybe Google because they are always changing settings and adding apps WITHOUT ASKING PERMISSION.

So sometimes when I set up a new account and say YES TO SAVE PASSWORD it ends up being saved to Google Settings instead

1. Customise homepage
2. Toggle Bookmarks
3. Switch Opening screen to Homepage
4. Open a new tab to youtube.com
5. Add to Bookmarks
6. Go to homepage
7. Nothing is showing up, the whole page is empty

I'm an experienced Firefox user who has already tried multiple troubleshooting steps. I need concrete support for this specific problem.

PROBLEM SUMMARY: I have ~1,625 bookmarks on my Android tablet (Device D). These bookmarks are NOT syncing to my other devices (Windows 11 + 2x Android). All other devices remain empty – no bookmarks available.

DEVICE SETUP: - Device A: Huawei Notebook, Windows 11, Firefox (new profile "CleanSync") - Device B: Android phone, Firefox - Device C: Android phone, Firefox - Device D: Samsung Tablet SM-X200, Android 14, Firefox (SOURCE of bookmarks!)

SYNC ACCOUNT: - Email: deviation@nickname.berlin.de (Newly created, old accounts deleted) - All 4 devices signed in + Sync enabled - Sync settings: "Bookmarks" CHECKED ✓ on all

WHAT I'VE TRIED: 1. Cleared Firefox cache on all devices (A/B/C/D) 2. Cleared Firefox data on Android B/C 3. Deleted old Sync accounts server-side (via accounts.firefox.com) 4. Created new account + added devices sequentially 5. WAITED: 2+ hours → No change

SYMPTOM: - Device D: 1,625 bookmarks LOCAL ✓ - Device A/B/C: 0 bookmarks (completely empty) ✗ - Sync status A/B/C: Shows "Sync enabled" + last sync X min ago - → But bookmarks NOT arriving

SUSPECTED CAUSE: Bookmarks from Device D not uploading to Mozilla server → other devices can't sync

LOGS AVAILABLE: - Device A: `about:sync-log` (can provide screenshots) - All devices: Sync settings screenshots

TWO QUESTIONS: 1. Diagnosis: What can I test to debug why bookmarks from Android D are not syncing? (Please NO FAQ links – I need individual instructions for this specific problem.)

2. Fallback option: Is there a way to backup/export the 1,625 bookmarks from Android D WITHOUT Sync (file, SQL export, cloud backup)? I could then manually import to other devices.

Thanx so much in advance! 🙏
