Firefox untuk iOS Community Forum

The 'Open Private Browsing' shortcut from the app icon has been broken for years. Long-press on the Firefox icon → "New Private Tab" → it opens a normal tab instead.

Once inside the app, it now takes five taps just to start typing in a private tab:

Open Firefox Tap the tabs icon in the bottom-right Tap the mask/private icon at the top Tap the "+" to open a new private tab Tap one last time on the address bar to actually start typing

Address bar autocomplete doesn't work at all — not even for bookmarks or sites you visit often. You have to type the full URL every single time, including dots, hyphens and the extension. This causes constant typing mistakes.

You also can't open any bookmark directly into a private tab.

Private browsing has become so frustrating that it's basically unusable, and this has been going on for years. Private mode is one of Firefox’s most important features. These basic issues really need to be fixed.

When I am using Firefox for iOS, and I click on any text input, a bar appears at the bottom of the screen. This bar contains nothing apart from ‘↑ ↓ Done’ on the right. This bar is really annoying and moves the page around irritatingly.

If I click ‘Done’ it will temporarily remove the bar until I click on a text input again, and it will appear again.

I would like to know if this is something to do with Firefox or the device iOS settings.

Google is the only search engine that will open a page. When using Firefox iOS to search, find your way back to a better search engine (below) appears after downloading the app. It seems to be in a loop that will not allow me t open any url. I believe my phone has flexispy (or some kind of spyware) downloaded on it and this is one search engine that it possibly cannot track, so it doesn’t function at all? Could this be the cause of this continuous loop that sends me back to download the app?

I am trying to use Firefox/Safari on my iPhone to access a website that requires camera and microphone access. When I reach the permission prompt, the browser gets stuck or does not allow me to continue even after granting permissions. I already checked settings and allowed camera and microphone, but the issue persists. The page shows a message related to “official browser support” and freezes on the permission screen.

I don’t know why it’s Impossible to get the connexion to helsana.ch on Firefox. Could you help me how to find a solution ?

How can we get rid of the invasive blue pop-up on iOS? Every time I get a tab I want to close, often ads I'm trying to avoid, I get this big blue banner that takes way too long to go away asking "undo closed tab" and ... I never want to undo but it's so frustrating having to wait for it to go away or switch tabs to get it to close faster. Why are they doing this to us? I'm switching to a different browser just to avoid dealing with it and it won't be safari.

Firefox iOS updated this morning to 143.1 In private browsing it’s in dark mode automatically and won’t change even if changing to light in the settings.

Any help? Steve

Since 148.0 version o Firefox I can't load pdf document from online e-mail. The document open in a new window but If save it I can only save it in html. not in pdf. It works only, if I use the print option.

Open tabs page keeps jumping to older open tabs and not the most recent. The screenshot I attached shows the open tabs page, there are more above this screenshot. This screenshot is the bottom, showing the most recent open tabs. Two versions ago, whenever I opened Firefox it opened two the most recently opened tabs… now with the latest iOS version it opens with an arbitrary old tab forcing me to scroll down to the bottom. Even if I just minimize the window to view another app, when I return to Firefox it jumps back to an old open tab again forcing me to scroll back down to the most recent. Needless to say, this is extremely annoying and I’m reporting it to you in hopes that you will come out with another update and fix the problem as soon as possible. Thank you very much..

When I am using FireFox on my iPad and try to open a .pdf file from the browser and I click on the file name, the screen blinks and goes back to the original webpage without opening the file. Basically I can’t open a .pdf file when using FireFox.
