Форум поддержки Firefox для iOS

I’ve been trying to install an ad blocker for FF on my iPad and I’m stuck in an endless loop. I navigate to the add on store and it says I have to install FF, even though it’s installed and set as default. The store has the “open” button, not install or download. I have a 5th gen iPad running 16.6. FF is at ver 117.0.

I ran across a bunch of posts about addons not working but they were from about 4 yrs ago. Here are some screenshots of what happens. Are addons prohibited on an iPad?

hi team

I am a multi decade, firefox in Mozilla supporter

About five years ago, had to transition to iPhone

The best solution was Lockwise for managing passwords, retaining cross platform support using firefox sync

In the last week or so Lockwise started automatically logging me out at least every day. This is extremely annoying and frustrating.

I would ditch lockwise, however it is the only solution to get Firefox sync passwords on iOS

Please advise - that seems like a bug in Lockwise that was recently introduced as a regression

It seems like Firefox password is not supported as a source in Firefox yet either on iPhone otherwise I would switch to that

'Lbold text'I have all my extensions uploaded to Dropbox, having a hard time figuring out what to do with them, especially the Facebook extensions. How do I get those to workin Facebook? I’m very confused!

The new user interface for IOS is insanely hard to use. I have an IPhone 12 mini, and recently the interface changed from one that had a large search bar at the bottom of the screen with bigger buttons and easier access. Now, it’s just one tiny row with no search bar on screen, making me either get rid of the tab or open a whole new one to search. The buttons are also ways smaller. I haven’t seen any way to get rid of this new UI and I’m not sure if i’m the only one having the issue.

This really annoying popup is a newer feature in Firefox iOS and it's very irritating because there doesn't seem to be any toggle to turn it off. If I close a tab I very consciously closed the tab, I don't need the popup to prompt me to reopen it. The popup also blocks the bottom nav menu in the app so you have to wait 1-2 seconds for the popup to go away before you can use the nav menu. Please make it possible to remove this firefox popup.

Hi, there is no import data button on general settings on ipad pro menu. How can i import passwords, bookmarks and history from brave/opera/duckduckgo/chrome/edge on ipad pro to firefox? How can i download history, passwords and bookmarks files for backing up firefox on ipad pro Thanks a lot

I am confused: why can I add articles on iOS to a Reading list which I cannot read on Dekstop since there's no Reading list only Pocket. Or am I missing something?

See screenshot attached (in Dutch).

I hope there will be an update in which we get bookmarks on the top for ipad. just like on pc. it's definitely possible cause there is enough screen real estate. or make two bars or 3 on ios. I hope this is a feature that will be picked up and implemented one day. I fully switched to Firefox. Cause now it connects every search result to desktop. Also I like that it isn't chromium based

I've noticed a large increase in ads in Firefox for iOS. Seems like it started about 6 months ago. The worst is Google ads that overlay functional parts of a website. Example is the home page and 10 day forecast page of wunderground.com.

The problem is definitely in Firefox. Firefox Focus doesn't suffer from these ads.

Thanks, Jeff

Hi It seems the latest ff update for iOS now shows a dialogue (not sure what the correct name is) every time I close a tab. The dialogue is “Tab Closed Undo”. It appears for a few seconds and then disappears. Much in the same fashion as every time take a photo on my iPhone there is a thumbnail of the pic I just took.

I absolutely hate these things. I either have to wait until they go away on their own or I have to waste time swiping them away. I know Mozilla is only responsible for the Tab Closed Undo dialogue.

Is there someway I can disable this new “feature”?

Thanks so much.

I recommend u take update Firefox browser pc or Mac or android or google and add type color blind setting and need more wallpaper design and add widget + choose newspaper article up date and

Hi, is there a way to change the user agent on iOS? The FxiOS part makes the browser way more fingerprint-able than standard safari, even with all the anti-fingerprint settings to the max.

Hello

It’s with a heavy heart that I write this, but it’s regarding something you should know. When I first started working on a computer full time I choose Firefox as my browser. The reason being that I thought working on a computer shouldn’t be just entry work. I thought it should be somewhat fun as well.

Now I think my first version of Firefox was around ver. 15. With that one I could change the whole look of the browser to make it more fun, it offered many very useful add ons, and it was a very fast and reliable browser. Because of this when I had to choose an email client I chose Thunderbird, because it had many of the same fun options.

So I worked on a computer for 10 years and I think by that time Firefox was somewhere North of ver. 60. I think due to all of the improvements in speed and security I couldn’t dress it up like the earlier models, but you could change the banner at the top which was neat, and almost all of the add ons had been constantly updated my the developers so I never had to delete a single one. Plus things were continually being added to the browser itself, so all in all I was never dissatisfied with it and recommended it to anyone looking for a browser to use on their computer.

Unfortunately I no longer work or have a computer and I am forced to do everything on an iPad. Naturally my first choice for a browser was Firefox. Of course I can’t do the fun things with this mobile browser, which I accepted because it did pretty much everything else just as it should. Until it started going downhill. Now, your mobile browser is, in a word, awful. Here are just a few of the problems it now has:

1. Web pages. When I first started using it a web page would be there until I closed it. No matter how many pages were open. Now, even if I have only two or three pages open, I close Firefox down and launch it again, the tabs are there showing what pages were open, but no URLs, and thus no pages. Everything is blank. 2. Speed. Our wi-fi has speeds ranging from 100Mpbs to 300Mpbs for downloads. But lately, some of those very same pages, well, let’s just say I could go and get a cup of coffee and they’d still be loading. 3. Logins. This is the worst issue. I must have logged into at least two dozen sites in Firefox and you know how many logins it saved? Two. Totally unacceptable! I don’t have the time or patience to continually look up login info that Firefox should have saved. It doesn’t even ask if I want to save that info.

So, I have kept Firefox on my iPad, and I will check every once in a while to see if there have been any improvements. But, until then, Google has become my default browser. It’s rather sad when the people who make the basic engine for the TOR browser, the world’s most private browser, can’t make a mobile browser that works properly.

So, until later Greg

put the + back for new tabs. I hate hate hate hate that I have to go all the way over to the 3 lines for a drop down menu for new tabs. it's such an easy fix to put the plus sign back. why do you make simple features SO DIFFICULT

I recently updated the Firefox app on my iPhone through the App Store. When I re-opened the app all my previous (many) tabs were closed. There’s no option to restore the session and while I still have history of “closed tabs” it doesn’t actually show the tabs the were closed as a result of the update, just the tabs I had closed before the update occurred. Since I’ve had some tabs open for a long time and I open and close tabs very often looking through my entire history isn’t a very viable solution. Is there some other way to restore my previous session like there is in browser?

I’ve never had an issue like this before on my laptop/windows. Thank you for your help.

I have taken two screenshots describing what I mean. Usually, you see a edit/save tab when you click bookmarks to either bookmark a page or edit the location of an existing one.

This has been happening for a while. And I have kept my device and all apps updated to latest available.

For this post, I tried to bookmark a page. Then tried to edit it’s location to “Lending” for instance. In both screenshots you can see there’s that edit/save button missing.

Because of this i am unable to edit my bookmarks’ location.

When I go to save a bookmark, the “done” or “save” button is missing. I can’t get bookmarks to save because I can’t complete the selection process. Can someone please help me troubleshoot this?

Hi Please can you develop a plugin for 1password in a similar way to the plug in for safari has one so that 1password works on my iPad. Currently i have an iPad pro and i cant use Firefox with 1password.... Therefore I have switched to using safari...

Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

I would like to know every single option I could possibly turn on or off, or adjust, or do literally anything to, in order to ensure that my tabs stay the [removed] open. I just returned today to find my 70+ tabs, which I regularly use, completely gone. Normally, if Firefox crashes, it at least has the decency to ask me if I’d like to reopen my tabs, but apparently not this time, for whatever reason. Having to scour through my history to reopen all of my tabs one by one is a frustrating endeavor, and while this is slightly uncommon, it still happens consistently and frequently enough to be a major irritant.

I apologize for my somewhat aggressive tone, but I’m about this close to just using another browser if it keeps pulling this [removed]. So to reiterate, I’d like to know every single possible option I could adjust in some way or to some capacity to ensure that my tabs just stay open.
