Firefox для Android: форум сообщества

Hi,

I'm quite annoyed about the new Android Firefox menu update. It takes up so much more space on the screen for not really adding any extra usability and the New Tab button is entirely gone in spite of there being plenty of space to have included it. Where did it go? I'd really prefer to have it back.

Regards, eliana

I've just about given up using this browser as it's become less and less user friendly. I have spent a couple of hours searching the forums and online to find a way to BLOCK webpages from refreshing/reloading in Firefox for Android. Facebook etc.. I've searched geckoview and there is NO option for blocking this feature. the accessibility.blockautorefresh no longer exists and re-entering it does nothing. I've disabled every option possible and it doesn't do it. Battery consumption etc. There are no current extensions add-ons that work. I assume this was done to make the browser more favorable for site monetization but Firefox wasn't supposed to be geared towards that.

If anyone knows of a way to do this please please let me know. Otherwise I'm -><- away from deleting this app and just using Brave.

How do you disable the "feature" that closes tabs when you swipe over them by accident? It's way to sensitive and ends up closing tabs that I want to be left open all of the time.

Unless I'm mistaken, the Android Firefox app used to have group tabs and was replaced by Collections. Personally, I find it less user friendly and requires more clicks while ending up with a worse version of what Group Tabs accomplished. It essentially operates as a weird mix of Group Tabs and Bookmarks while being worse than both.

Cons of Collections:

• There is no differentiation between tabs in a collection and not in a collection.
• There is no quick swapping between tabs in a collection.
• There is no option to Close all tabs in a collection but there is one to Open all tabs. This just looks messy.
• Collections can only be opened from Homepage, not the Tabs screen.
• Saving a collection requires long-press, select tab(s), tap Collection icon, then select a Collection. Group tabs requires longpress, select multiple, tap group icon OR drag and stack tabs.

Pros of Collections:

• Neatly stored on Homepage instead of taking up a Tab slot on Tab page. (which could be fixed be programming group tabs ability to be stored on Homepage and re-opened with option).

All in all it is just a 5/10 feature in functionality. Even less so when taking into account that Android Firefox also has Bookmarks and Shortcuts. Please go back to drawing board on this one, it's really one feature I miss about Chrome (and what I thought Firefox used to have).

Hello everyone, I don't know where it comes from (my screen or moz update), but I have a problem I didn't have before. When I open the tabs menu, the option to close a tab by sliding it laterally is way too sensitive. When I slide vertically to navigate, I very often close one of my tabs. Very annoying. I checked in the parameters if there was an option to deactivate that (Especially that there are crosses on each tabs to close them. The lateral sliding is pretty useless). Is there an option in about/config to deactivate that parameter please ? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I've been having issues with the Firefox app on my Android ever since the most recent update on 4th of July. Whenever I tap the "tabs" button, the tabs viewer opens as always, but if I try to scroll and browse the tab, or if I try to close any of the visible tabs, the whole app crashes. Because of that, I can only switch between tabs by swiping, but it can be annoying if you're used to using many tabs like myself. I have cleared my cache multiple times and it didn't help. I am not too tech-savvy but is there any way to fix it? Thank you!

I just lost several hundred tabs on Firefox mobile right after it updated itself. The most recent tabs show only ten of those tabs, which were all opened and closed today and aren't part of what I need to restore.

How do I get my tabs back? I've seen no 'restore previous session' option. My laptop only shows the few I have open now. What do I do to restore them?

Until recently, in Firefox Nightly for Android, when visiting a web page in a Private Browsing tab the three-dot menu included an option to "Open in regular tab". In the past few versions, this option has been removed.

This option is especially handy for those of us who have the "Open links in a private tab" option enabled, which essentially makes Private Browsing the default. For example, if it is a page that normally requires a login, you can use "Open in regular tab" to easily open it in a regular session where you are automatically logged in. If your browser history is synced, "Open in regular tab" makes a page easily available on all devices (e. g. via Suggest) without having to bookmark it or actually send it to a different device.

This post on Bugzilla says "we will continue to keep this a Nightly-only feature" and the menu entry will be renamed to "Move to non-private tab". However, the menu entry does not appear on the redesigned menu.

1. Which exact version removed the option? Is there documentation about this in Bugzilla? 2. Is there a way to re-enable it, e. g. in about:config? 3. If not, are there any plans to bring it back?

Thanks.

On Nightly build 2016088551, I was given a pop-up to lock tabs in Private mode. I do not like this change, so I tried looking in settings to turn this off. I did not find the option to turn this off. How do I do so?

Hi, I am using Firefox Nightly. It keeps prompting me to lock my private tabs, I accidentally clicked it and now I need password/biometrics everytime to view my private tabs. How do I disable the lock? I cannot find it in settings/private browsing.

When I open the tab tray and realize that I don't know where the tab I'm looking for is, I would like to be able to type some search terms to find it.

This is when I am searching for a tab that I know is open, so I'm not using the new tab workflow.

i really need to PERMANENTLY DISABLE the infernal, default auto-refresh session on return to already opened tab. tyranny of the default on Android.

if/when i want to refresh that session, i'll do so MANUALLY.

i want this, not only in alpha, but beta & standard, too. so, it just can't be buried in about:config, which is nanny-state removed from standard. it must be exposed in UI Settings.

i'm not the first or only to request this.

After some update on Android Firefox, discarding tab by swiping to right (on List mode) has become so much more difficult that it messes with the flow and makes me consider switching browser. Is there a way to maybe tweak some configs to change it back or even a way to downgrade the Firefox?

About background website lists..Displaying the number of pages box makes it difficult to browse and I suggest placing colorful, easily selectable lists after the number of pages box list.
