Firefox for Android Community Forum

I want to avoid using Google but when I use Firefox or even Firefox Focus it still goes straight Google. Is Firefox owned by Google or its parent company now? Thanks

1. download manager is teribble, it doesnt show what percentage or of file has been downloaded or remains? It only shows when file has comlpletely downloaded. It would be way better if it show details and give control during download.

GREAT but On Samsung FLOW PC screen Firefox continues to be non-responsive, though other browser do work.GREAT but On Samsung FLOW PC screen Firefox continues to be non-responsive, though other browser do work.

142.0.1 (Build #2016110943), 179e4da8d58fdece16dcbf164c80199917a5946e GV: 142.0.1-20250827004350 AS: 142.0.1 OS: Android 15

Crashes contantly, all the time, after several minutes use it will suddenly disappear and lose everything, tabs, etc., but crash reports are never produced. When it happens the app seems to collapse into the right lower corner of the screen, like a balloon deflating. The Firefox has been uninstalled and reinstalled several times without effect. Why, and what to do about it ?

I foolishly upgraded to the latest Android mobile version. I like my bookmarks kept in the order I set them. Firefox, with the new version has decided they should be alphabetical once again. I have turned off this annoying behaviour in previous versions by disabling Compose Bookmarks in the secret settings. This option is no longer visible. How do I get my bookmarks back in the order want and stop firedox from screwing them up again?

What is this obsession the development team have with screwing up user bookmark organisation? This keeps coming back like a bad penny.

This is a privacy issue. The fact that Firefox is set up to automatically show all pages you've viewed is a huge security flaw as well. We don't want this feature! Just look up how many people have been asking to get rid of this (for years).

Is there a simple way yet?

If yes, please let me know how. If no, I will be boycotting Firefox and will simply not use it.

Thank you for any help!

Hello everyone,

While testing some fan-made game community websites, I noticed that Firefox handles them a bit differently compared to Chrome or Edge. For example, I checked https://nullsbrawl.tech/ (not an official site, just a community project) and saw that it loads more slowly and sometimes behaves differently in Firefox.

This made me curious:

Does Firefox have different handling for script-heavy or unofficial community websites?

What tools in Firefox Developer Tools would you recommend for debugging performance issues?

Are there guidelines for developers to make such sites more compatible with Firefox?

I’d love to understand more about how Firefox manages these situations.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have selected 'bookmarks' for my homepage thinking i could choose the pages that I most frequently open to be the most prominent. However it seems impossible to do anything except 'delete,' that which has been randomly chosen, which negates the purpose. Seems like something thats been overlooked in the 'upgrade,' if theres something I'm missing please let me know.

I love the feature of always opening tabs in a private window. One thing that was critical to my workflow was being able to convert a private tab to a regular one. In recent version I see that the button to do this is no longer where it used to be.

Does this functionality still exist and I'm just missing where it is now positioned?
