Currently if a user selects to turn Desktop Mode on, it is a switch that turns it on across the whole browser. It stays on for each new tab or window that is opened in Firefox.

What I am proposing is an individual Desktop Mode switch for each tab/window, so that only one tab or window is affected. Any new windows or tabs that are opened will revert to the default Desktop Mode setting (user changeable).

Does that make sense?

I only need YouTube in Desktop Mode on Firefox. The rest of my sites are fine in Mobile mode.

Why firefox android does not open multiple tabs at once ( on one click)?

FOR EXAMPLE: I HAVE LIST OF 40 DIFFERENT URLS ( or n number of URLs )WHICH I NEED TO OPEN ALL AT ONCE ( ON ONE CLICK). ( REMEMBER: ONE URL PER TAB) FIREFOX ANDROID DOES NOT ALLOW IT? WHY? TILL WHEN?

I have tested brave,opera and edge but they also failed to open multiple tabs in one click.

ONLY AND ONLY GOOGLE CHROME ( ANDROID) IS SUCCESSFULLY OPENED MULTIPLE TABS IN ONE CLICK.

The tool I used to open multiple urls at once is https://www.openmultipleurl.com/

In the most recent update, when I switch into the tab viewer, several times I have had tabs close as I tried to scroll through the list. It seems that a slight left or right motion intiates a left or right swipe action, and this has had a tab closing functionality added. I do not want to accidentally close tabs while scrolling through them. I do not want a left or right swipe to close tabs. How do I disable this?

Aus welchem Grund öffnen sich Tabs, die bereits geschlossen wurden und die selbst aus der Chronik gelöscht wurden, bei jedem Start der Firefox App? Könnt ihr mir helfen dieses Problem zu beheben?

The tab "Collections" on mobile Android are way too sensitive to closing tabs that can never be recovered, since there's no history for closed tabs that aren't open from the collections. I will be scrolling through them like normal and it will be so sensitive it will think I swiped left on a tab and it'll just close tabs at random, never to be seen again!! I wish this was not a feature. I need it to be way less sensitive, so that only a very intentional swipe left AND hitting the X closes the tab. I've lost so many tabs and I can't remember what they even were because it happens so fast!!

Hello Firefox community! today I got issue that could be bug, when I switch to other tab, search something, and get back to first tab, tab refreshes, like for no reason. (yeah i was doing something and all progress lost😭) Soo is it website issue or browser issue?

Firefox on Android still partially has tab groups enabled when you turn off the setting under Tabs -> Tab Grouping. The setting removes the header element in the tab view, but if you drag and move a tab to rearrange, it still shows the nesting animation over another tab and if you drop the tab it still shows the grouping UI. I don't want tab groups turned on. Is there a way to make sure this bug is resolved/seen?

For my open tabs , I was able to drag the open tab into a new spot, but recently I cannot switch them around. Is there a sett>ng that may have changed?? Or other reason?

I have multiple (20-100) tabs open. I choose for example 40 tabs and send them to my Firefox desktop.

Sometime ago there was a option to close those 40 tabs after the sending. Now you can't close multiple tabs in anyway. You can close one tab at a time, or all tabs.

What's the reason for this?

So whenever I close and reopen firefox nightly, it created a new tab even tho i switched the function in settings to open the last tab on re-entering, this happens everytime and it's kinda annoying.

I just installed firefox, but every time i leave a page, it stays open and a new tab opens. I google something, press back, and it opens a new tab while keeping the google with the question open. It leaves me with tabs i manually have to close I also don't want to use the automatic function, because i like keeping a few tabs open for myself, and also it wouldn't solve my problem. So the tabs staying open just causes a lot of tab-clutter Is there any setting or trick to it?

I use both Firefox on PC and Android. I have never noticed such strange behavior on PC. When closing FF, even after PC restart, FF always opens the same pages and tabs I left it. On Android, after minimizing and retuning, I see a summary page instead of the page I am reading. In settings the selected option is : Open the last tab.

When I tap New Tab in Firefox for Android, a new empty tab is created. However, if I don't type anything in the address bar or open a webpage, the empty tab does not remain available when I switch between tabs.

I would like Firefox to keep empty tabs open until I manually close them, even if I haven't entered a URL or search.

For example, I would like to be able to have:

Tab 1 — ChatGPT Tab 2 — Empty new tab Tab 3 — Empty new tab Tab 4 — Empty new tab

Then I can switch to any empty tab later and start searching or browsing.

Chrome allows this behavior, so I would like to know:

Is there a Firefox Android setting that allows empty tabs to remain open? If not, is this a known issue or feature request? If it is not currently supported, where can I submit a feature request for it?

I am using Firefox for Android and would prefer not to have unused empty tabs automatically removed.

As someone who tends to have a lot of tabs open, I am constantly frustrated by trying to scroll through my tabs, only to consistently have tabs accidentally closed because my thumb drifts slightly to one side or the other. I find this 'feature' very annoying. There's an 'x' on the corner of each tab in the all tabs view should I choose to, or want to close one. The only saving grace I have in these situations is the undo prompt when my tabs are inadvertently closed, if I'm quick enough to catch it, or realize that it happened. I would like to disable this 'swipe to close' nonsense though, so that my tabs only get closed when I Want them to be closed. But I can't seem to find a setting for it. Sometimes the page I was using in them loses information, or messes up what I was doing on them due to them being closed and subsequently reloaded. Thank you for any help anyone can offer.

I'm using Firefox for Android version 156.0 (Build #2016183655) on Android 16.

When the setting Enable Tab Groups is set to disabled, why am I still able to drag and drop one tab on top of the other, with the "Create tab group" page shown to me as in the attached picture??? It seems the only difference in setting Enable Tab Groups to disabled is that once I click Save on the Create tab group page I'm brought back to the tab page without the group being created.

While I truly appreciate the option to disable tab groups, the entire reason I want to disable them is because I'm so tired of trying to rearrange my tabs and having the interface think I'm trying to create a group instead of simply rearranging them! This whole tab group idea has created such a mess and it's so much extra work trying to avoid it, and I sincerely believe that disabling the Enable Tab Group setting should completely prevent the Create tab group page from ever appearing at all. Surely the way it's working now can't be how it was intended to work???

I followed the instructions in the article. Creating tab groups is impossible. Dragging and dropping just rearranges the order. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups-firefox-android
