Firefox for Android Community Forum

When I open the tab tray and realize that I don't know where the tab I'm looking for is, I would like to be able to type some search terms to find it.

This is when I am searching for a tab that I know is open, so I'm not using the new tab workflow.

Phone: Nothing 3(a) Headphones: Nothing ear (a) When using YouTube (phone speaker) all runs smoothly. But when using earphones videos desync and stutter very badly. My extensions are "ublock origin" and "privacy badger" Any help or suggestions would be welcome

So for some reason both the navigation and status bar always stay visible for me when I try to watching any full screen videos.

Does anyone know why this happens and if there is a solution to it?

Since the last update the following error occurs: If I delete individual entries in the browser history, they don't stay deleted, hey are back after a while.

Is this a bug?

tabs list jumps to the start when intermittently switching to private mode, which is quite annoying when having lots of tabs

Ive no idea why, I woke up the next morning and seemed as if an update occured. If I make a search it shows text and location as if i am from the Nederland, it's difficult only having a phone but no matter what changes I attempt and try to save...with no avail..continues remaining the same, after days trying to fix i was finally able to find this option. Respectfully, ask for help. Thought this was a private discussion of the issue and not an open thread?

I’m having a really annoying issue with Mozilla Firefox on Android, but it only happens on YouTube’s mobile site (m.youtube.com).

The back and forward buttons don’t work properly there. For example, if I’m on the YouTube homepage and open a video, then from under that video I tap another suggested video — when I press the back button, instead of taking me back to the previous video, it jumps straight to the YouTube homepage.

The same thing happens if I search for something, open a video from the results, and then try to go back. It doesn’t return me to the search results — it just takes me to the homepage again.

The forward button has the same issue too — it skips everything and goes to the next home page in the history instead of the actual next page I visited.

This only noticed it on YouTube’s mobile site. I did not test other websites, but i didn't notice the back/forward navigation having any issue. There might be a issues or maybe they might work fine, i just didn't notice it so far.

So yeah, it looks like Firefox’s navigation history doesn’t handle YouTube’s pages correctly on mobile.

Hello, due to problems with the Firefox Beta (for Android), I switched to the stable version. However, with this version I also encounterd some problems, mainly regarding the homepage: In the beta version collections are displayed (at the bottom) of the homepage. In my stable version, I cannot see the collections at all. I can still add sites to collections, and when doing so, all my collections are shown but I don't know how to access them. I could not find anything about it in the settings. Is this the regular behavior? If not, how can I change it?

Best regards

On android, it is possible to change the search engine of the search bar on the home screen. There you can select a Search Engine App, like Google, Qwant or Startpage.

However, Firefox is currently not available as a selectable option there. Adding it there would make it possible for those searches to be handled by firefox.

Here is a like from the Google Documention explaining it more. https://support.google.com/android/answer/14661350?visit_id=638898573078368897-2813460311&p=change_search_engine&rd=1
