Форум сообщества Firefox для iOS

Hi - I’m experiencing that the Firefox app on my iPhone (iOS) has a bug where it’s causing it to automatically switch search engines from the search engine I have set in settings to another one that I have disabled. It’s becoming extremely annoying & frustrating that I have to go in and reset it every time it does it - which is close to four times a day. Also I’ve noticed that I can no longer delete search engines I don’t use. Please fix.

The latest version of Firefox won’t save my custom search engine as the default. When I force close the app, it goes back to DuckDuckGo.

iOS 26.1 Latest version of Firefox.

On iOS 18.6.2, the latest Firefox 144.2 keeps reverting my search engine back to Google, at least once daily. I set it to StartPage generally, but have found that any other search engine seems to revert to the Google default. Changing this setting usually is reverted within a few hours, but sometimes it may last a full day though. Can anyone help?

I’ve added Kagi as a custom search engine to Firefox for iOS. It works for about a day when searching in the address bar, but always reverts to the previously used built-in search engine (Google, DuckDuckGo, etc.) How can I get Firefox to stick with my custom search engine and stop reverting to the previously used built-in search engine?

Why does the iOS app keep changing my default search engine from Brave to DuckDuckGo?? I changed it to Brave search and I don’t want it using anything else. Why does it not keep this setting?

Search engines switches from Startpage, which I have added as an alternative browser, to either google or DuckDuckGo without prompting. App inactivity and swiping up to close Firefox both seem to prompt this behavior.

Only startpage and Wikipedia are enabled as alternative browsers, and all default ones are turned off.

I have an issue with search on version 144.1 (iPadOS 26.0.1 and iOS 18.7.1), where my default search engine selection (Kagi) in Firefox's settings are not respected, and will randomly change if I enter a search term in the address bar.

Hi,

I really want to replace Google search engine with Firefox. I already have the Firefox app installed but i have a Google search engine. I don’t want Google anymore. How do I replace it? Can you please explain any advice to me like I’m 5, as I have a mild cognitive impairment and am not very tech savvy.

Hi- with the most recent update to firefox mobile for iOS- I have lost the ability to quickly toggle between search engines. I prefer to use duck duck go but sometimes the results just aren’t what I need and I have to go to google. But now I am not seeing that option. Did it go away? Can I give feedback that this is much more clunky and likely to force me to default to google instead??? Thank you!

I have several search engines setup and have been using them without any problems. Now with iOS 26 and Firefox 143.0.1 (61598), I’ve lost the ability to select the engine when typing in the address bar. But I found that it works fine when I set the address bar to display on the bottom. Did iOS 26 break this?

I signed up to use Firefox to avoid Google. I hate how they track you and hate their politics. Then I find out Mozilla uses Google. Suggestions please. I have 5 email accounts (none g mail) and want to search without Google. Will stop using Firefox. Sure looking like one huge corporation owns everything.

I want to disable the search-from-address-bar function. If I attempt to use the config editor, then I type about:config in the address bar BUT it does not open the config editor. Instead it displays search results related to the config editor.

None of those search results is the CONFIG EDITOR

ARGHHHHHH

During the configuration of my iPad, I noticed that there is no option to add a custom query URL, like it exists under Android. Therefore, after adding the custom search engine (and when it's chosen) the search suggestions are missing. While I know that there are technical limitations regarding Firefox on IOS/IPadOS, I don't think/hope that this is one of them.

Hi,

I am trying to add Brave as the search engine on the Firefox settings in iOS, however, I continue to receive an error message stating “Please fill all fields correctly” I am using the below URL:

https://search.brave.com/search?q=%25s&source=desktop

And

search.brave.com or https://search.brave.com

But none are working and I continue to get the same error message
