I now have the problem that I am on a large payment page and switch back and forth between FF and another app (to copy payment-relevant data). Unfortunately, FF does a page refresh every time it is brought back to the foreground from the background. And all the data already entered is lost! This is a fairly well-known problem with FF on Android! Chromium manages this better and leaves the memory management to Android. Why can't FF do that? Why can't I switch off this feature? I can't edit any relevant websites with the FF. I have to use Chrome for that! Hooray!

When switching to another app from Firefox and then switching back to firefox, the webpage reloads. This is not a memory issue, I have enough RAM and it happens even if I only have 1 tab open. This is a major pain when I need to enter a 2FA code and need to swith apps to get the code. Or if I'm watching a YouTube video and get a call, the youtuve page reloads after the call has ended. Please suggest how to fix this.

Since I am on my new Phone (Xiaomi Poco F6, Hyper OS 1.0.4.0, Android 14.UKQ1.240116.001), I have this weird thing with Firefox that when I minimize it and then come back a few seconds later, it will automatically reload the tab I was on. Which is extremely annoying because, for example, I was on the Paypal page and was getting my login code from messages, then when I got back on the Paypal page it reloaded and I could not insert the code, but had to click on 'send code' again (and again and again). I saw this issue appear multiple times apparently already on reddit and co. But nowhere I could find an answer to it. Someone? I looked in the battery saver settings and in firefox settings etc, but I can't find anything that makes tabs reload automatically and it makes no sense that anything would clear the cache every time I minimize firefox, no?

Whenever I leave Firefox even for a second it's like I'm opening the browser for the first time. Example When I'm filling data in a website and leave Firefox for a second the website refreshes and I have to input the data all over again. Or When I'm playing a video on YouTube and leave the app for a bit then the YouTube website reloads and I have to trace where I left the video at. It's happening to all websites.

I bought a new android (Samsung) tablet. I want to sync all the tabs I have on my Windows PC to the tablet. I am not tech savvy.. further, why can't the Firefox page that shows all my saved tabs and bookmarks look the same on my tablet? sheesh...

I have Release, Beta (and Nightly) on this 10" Samsung tablet running Android 13. For some months I've been expecting the new tab bar (tabs accross the top, like on desktop, and a + on the left) to arrive in the Release version I normally use. I assumed it was being held back.

Today I saw it in Beta 133. I updated Release so that's now: 133.0 (Build #2016057495), hg-8141aab3ba85+ GV: 133.0-20241121140525 AS: 133.0

I now see default desktop view (good idea) - but no tab bar. I've searched settings unsuccessfully.

Why not? Is it behind a pref which I can't change? What's the plan?

I need to know how to recover all my tabs after closing them accidentally. I dropped my phone when trying to access tabs settings to disable the "inactive section" (that I had not enabled, I don't know why that thing was done without my consent), and accidentally hit "close all tabs". I see that, as of last year, there was no way to do it, but maybe after all the questions about this they added something. Recently closed tabs still shows the last that I closed manually

My tabs are being refresh everytime after I left to switch to other tabs then come back. This constantly happening even when I did not open another app, just browsing between firefox tabs. Already play with battery setting in app info and change it to unrestricted and nothing changes. Can anyone help? btw I'm using galaxy tab s6

Just updated Firefox to version 132.1 on my iPhone and now all of my tabs are gone. Going to history and trying to restore previous session doesn’t work and my history does not go back far enough to get my previously opened tabs back. Is there anyway to restore them?

Tabs for my website URL, once assigned to a now-deleted container, keep crashing. Deactivating "Container" add-on did not help. My URL opens fine on other computers, other browsers. It seems permanently contaminated by a bad container assignment. No other tabs crash. Help!

I have 4 tabs open on the firefox app in my android phone.Only 1 appears on my desktop firefox browser in the 'Tabs from other devices' section. I have an android tablet as well but it doesnt face such an issue.

经常发生的问题：安卓Firefox进入后台后再次打开，网页重新加载，出去看个验证码都不行，严重影响体验。 Frequently occurring problems: After Android Firefox enters the background and is opened again, the webpage is reloaded. Because of this, even going out to view the verification code is not possible, which seriously affects the experience. 软件没有被杀后台，是软件自身的问题。 The software was not killed in the background, it was a problem with the software itself.

I’m on an iPad Pro 12.9, Gen 5 - MANY of us have the same issue and only with Firefox: You can move a tab, but it reverts to the previous position immediately. I have changed/adjusted/reset every setting that I can think of and nothing changes. You can move the tab - but it reverts to its original position automatically. This is a bug that Mozilla needs to fix - and, from what I have been reading has needed to fix for a lot longer than I thought… over the course of YEARS. With all of these complaints I would think that Mozilla would be working a little harder on this issue. It seems to me that it should not be that hard of a task within the programming - but that is just my retired IT brain thinking out loud.

After updating to version 129.2 on my iPhone, I can no longer rearrange my tabs. I can tap and hold on a tab and move it but then it snaps back to the old position. This is making the browser unusable for me. I have tried closing and reopening the app and restarting my iPhone but neither worked.

Today all my Tabs on Firefox suddenly disappeared/ got closed. Usually they were saved and opened automatically. This worked well for years. Is there any technique to reconstruct them?

If you leave more than one tab in the background while using Firefox, it may irregularly automatically shut down. This happens even if you manually change the close after n hours in the settings, and I'm currently using Samsung Galaxy. For Galaxy Tab, I've tried to lock the app, allow the background, etc. to prevent this irregular shutdown, but to no avail. How do I solve these problems?

Updated to the latest version of Firefox Beta today on my Tablet and have noticed that now there is support for on-screen visible "Desktop-Like" tab strips.

I want to turn this feature off because it's consuming too much vertical space. How can I disable this? I've looked everywhere within settings and even within the debug menu and about:config, but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

Many medical conditions limit manual dexterity. I’ve had essential tremor since childhood; it’s harmless, but it does complicate the business of using a smart phone. Some applications (e.g., Proton Mail) have settings for the user to choose what happens upon swiping left or right; I set them to “do nothing” or to the most harmless of the actions listed. I don’t see such a setting in the Android version of Firefox.

It would be useful, because I usually keep many tabs open, which means that when I look at the grid of tabs, I need to scroll up and down to see them all. However, moving my finger straight up or down is difficult: any trembling while I move up or down seems to be interpreted as swiping sideways, and then a tab closes. I can find and re-open tabs using the “Recently closed tabs” menu, but I’d rather tabs not close so easily because I don’t always notice when I lose them.

There’s a somewhat similar, archived comment at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1419070, but the setting referred to in one of the proposed solutions is about swiping on the address bar (I turned that off long ago), not in the grid of tabs. And I don’t see a way to disable left- and right-swiping for all applications at once in the Settings app of Android 12, with which I’ll be stuck for a while.

Hi,

I would like to be able to switch from tab to tab in 'Firefox Android'. The tabs are not listed next to the two dots ':' Can someone help me with this? This would be much appreciated, as I enjoy 'Mozilla Firefox' very much. Thank you.
