Firefox dla Androida — Fora społeczności

Hello! I appreciate many niceties of the 148 update, but i'm having an issue resulting in many more tabs on Android mobile than I usually generate. When I search something and then want to sesrch the same query again using a different search engine (by selecting a different search engine from the tab bar menu) a new tab opens, leaving the query via the previous search engine open, and the current query of the current search engine in a new tab with focus. I'm aware that this behavior can be modified on desktop, but there is no such setting for android.

I would really love for this behavior to be reverted or optional, as it's made it so I need to clear out many tabs of duplicate queries (on different sesrch engines) and it makes me avoid using the built-in search engine switcher to prevent generating more tabs :( (which sucks because I have like 10+ custom searches and they're very useful!)

Hello, It's very annoying that when I type a word or a sentence into the search bar, the only option I have is to delete what I've written. There aren't any other options available, like "go" button, I have to use my keybord for that. Cheers!

In Firefox for PC you can add a search item to the address item in the toolbar.

This is necessary for adding a search engine using the Search Engine Search Tool from Mycroft Project (former Mozilla Mycroft Project: https://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.php )

When you have selected a search engine for being added to the search engfine list you can use the down arrow in the search item for selecting the new search engine for being added.

Using Mycroft Project for adding search engines is a genuinely better and more effective way of searching and adding search engines than the manual method in the settings/search/alternative search engines/add search engine menu. On PC i have been using it for years.

Doing so is not possible using the address item because the down arrow is not there anymore when you have chosen a location, Therefore the additional search item is necessary.

Unfortunately the toolbar cannot be customized on android like on a PC. And i have found no other way to add a search item to the toolbar or in a second line of the toolbar.

PS: I have also tried to execute the HTML code for adding a search engine from Mycroft Project.

      The source code was displaied on the Firefox screen but it had no effect on the search engine list.
      No error message or sucess message was displaied.

Edited on Firefox on PC: 153.0 (64-bit)

Change request is for Firefox AS: 152-.0.1 OS: Android 16

When doing a search in the address bar (on firefox android), and then going back to the search result, one cannot modify easily the entered text.

Example: - In address bar (independent of the engine search) enter these keywords: "firefox search bar" - In the result list, click on any link. - Then go back to modify your search, you get:

https://www.ecosia.org/search?method=index&q=firefox%20search%20bar&p=1

Whish is a painful to change or just add an extra keyword!

Something wrong it's happening since the last update. When typing a word in the Google search bar it adds random letters. For example if I'm trying to type Mozi(lla) I get "mozizo". My keyboard is working fine with other apps, I switched to another keyboard and the glitch persists

I want to make Brave my default search engine. I think i added the extension but its not on the list. Also I tried putting the url in at the add search engine page in settings. Thanks so much

Every time I try to use the firefox search bar it redirects to my google search bar. I downloaded firefox because I was tired of Google and wanted something different. Is there not a firefox search bar or am I doing something wrong?

Ask AI isn't optimized for firefox. Query box text isn't cleared after text submission. Also occasionally scrolls to the bottom where I have to scroll back up to read it's response.

why does Firefox have a Google sign in the search bar on my mobile device after installing it? Does not make sense since Firefox on my laptop opens in Firefox browser.
