Firefox для Android: форум сообщества

I can't edit Bookmarks on Android anymore to move bookmarks to subfolders of Bookmarks that were previously created. This is a recent issue. Android 16, Pixel 10 Pro. I have previously created a number of subfolders of the Bookmarks folder. I used to be able to move bookmarks easily with the edit option to a subfolder. Now the carrot next to the Bookmarks folder does not expand. Restarted phone, un/reinstalled Firefox. I can edit my bookmarks in Firefox in Windows 11, and now this is my only way to move bookmarks so that they are in a subfolder on my phone. I have to move them on my laptop. I mainly browse on my phone, so this is very inconvenient, and not a good development from my point of view. Thanks for your help!

Ever since the new update I can't save to any of the bookmark folders on my phone anymore. When I click on bookmark now all I get is the options to save in the bookmark menu, the toolbar, other bookmarks or create a new folder. But all the other bookmark folders that I have I can no longer save to them it no longer gives me the options.

Even created a new folder to see if that would work, but I still can't access it when I bring up the bookmark menu so I was wondering if there's any workaround or a fix to the solution?

How can I revert the previous view (list format) of the firefox menus ? The new appearance of the menus is extremely akward (to me), compared to the previous LIST FORMAT, as displays buttons that take up a lot of space on screen.

In this new appearance of the menus, I need to search for what was previously seen at first glance.

The android UI was updated in recent Firefox updates and it is now impossible to enable sync from an Android phone due to this change.

According to Firefox during setup the proper steps are:

1. Open firefox on your mobile device. 2. Go to the menu and tap "Sign In" 3. Tap Ready to Scan and hold your phone over this code.

The new android UI does not have one universal menu. Instead it includes a list that lets me:

• Bookmark a Page
• Find in Page
• Turn on Desktop Mode
• manage Extensions
• "More"

It also features:

• My Name for managing and backup/sync
• Settings

I'll enumerate the issues with this.

If I select More. This is different than the more settings options under "Settings". It allows me to:

• Translate the Page
• Add to Shortcuts
• Add to Home Screeen
• Save to Collection
• Open in App
• Save to PDF
• Print

All of these are irrelevant.

If I select my Account, the most obvious of these ambiguous choices. I can:

• Manage Account
• Sync Now
• Change the Device Name
• Sign Out
• Choose what to sync.

There is NO option here to scan a QR code. Manage Account leaves the app and opens a mozilla account webpage. None of these options work.

If I select "Settings" I receive a large list of useless options - none of which allow me to scan a QR code.

Since scanning the QR code is the ONLY way to enable syncing via the mobile app am I understanding correctly that Firefox has removed this feature and is mistakenly still advertising a deprecated feature inside their MacOS app which prevents me from actually ever signing in to my account.

If this is intended to still be a feature. How do I do it? The instructions are unclear and your UI does not help in any way to figure out how to navigate to the correct place where I might possibly be able to move forward in any manageable way.

Settings provides feature "Delete browsing data on quit". With this feature ON and option "History" selected, the latest version clears the History list, but does NOT delete the list of Recently Closed Tabs on the history page. This seems to be a major bug.

I signed in to my account on a new PC and it asked something about if I have mobile phone and I said yes so it gave me a pop-up wit the following text: "Sync Firefox on your phone or tablet 1. Open Firefox on your mobile device 2. Go to the menu and tap Sign in 3. Tap Ready to Scan and hold your phone over this code" And I get stuck on step 2 I can't find a Sign In button, attached an image of what clicking the menu (...) button shows. So how exactly do I tell firefox that I want to sync between this machine and my mobile? I do have it working nicely with my laptop but I don't remember how exactly did I sync that, I kind of assumed just signing into the account would be enough enough but based on this pop-up it isn't.

The text selection toolbar (often just called the text selection menu or contextual selection toolbar) is used throughout my Android/Samsung phone. It appears whenever you long-press text, a textbox, or URL bar, and shows actions like Paste, Copy, Select all, and sometimes Extract text depending on your keyboard/OEM.

In the lastest Android Firefox app update, the "Clipboard" option is no longer present in the app on the contextual selection toolbar.

This is a major inconvenience. I'm a longtime Firefox user and this missing feature is a huge inefficiency problem. This means I cannot easily use text copied or cut from elsewhere on my phone and easily access it without individually and tediously copying and pasting individual text content.

Please see the attached image and gifs showing contextual selection toolbars with and without the "clipboard" option.

I noticed the UI changed for Firefox for Android and part of that change is there's a slight delay/transition when opening menus or navigating between settings.

May I ask for a toggle that disables the transition so menus open immediately, like the Extensions and More dropdowns do? It would feel intuitive for it to be in the Customize options.

Right now I'm on FFfA 148.0 (Build #2016144279), not sure which version I was on before. It's not the biggest issue but does add a bit of friction to the user experience, I've got muscle memory for being able to refresh faster than I can now.

The new UI's been great otherwise!

For at least 25 years Mozzilla/Firefox have saved my passwords. Tow days ago the column of passwords I am unable to open. What is problem and how to repair? I am 82years and under medical care and need my passwords of which many will never used anymore.

My android phone just recently updated my firefox version to 148 (this happened today, February 27, 2026).

Since this happened, I can no longer properly manage my bookmarks. Let me describe in more detail:

I have multiple sub-folders that I use to organize my bookmarks by topic. Previously, when I edited a bookmark, I could move it into one of these sub-folders by navigating to the sub folder on the bookmark editing page. Normal, expected behavior.

• Now* when I try to edit a bookmark, only the top-level "Bookmarks" folder is visible; if I try to expand that folder with the > carat icon, nothing happens. I only have the option to make *new* subfolders, not to navigate to subfolders that already exist.

To be clear: - I can find all my previously existing bookmark subfolders when I want to *open* a bookmark. - The problem is only when I want to *move* a bookmark into one of these existing subfolders. - When I edit a bookmark, I see the > carat icon that normally would expand the Bookmarks top-level folder, but that icon does not function. Therefore I cannot actually select any of my existing folders to move the bookmark into.

Can this function be restored to the normal behavior a.s.a.p.?

I'm attaching two screenshots to show that I have subfolders, but that I cannot access them when I edit a bookmark (pressing the expand button does nothing)

Thank you.

When I am using the android Firefox browser to watch YouTube, it is fine when browsing and finding a video. I will click on a video just fine, and start watching it no problem. The issue occurs when I switch tabs or switch apps to do something else and return later. Once I return to the YouTube tab even if the video is not or was never in full screen, Firefox will then be forced into landscape orientation. This persists between tabs until I either restart the app or do a Google search.

I found a potential solution in these forums. In about:config there should be a setting called media.videocontrols.lock-video-orientation. I tried this, but there is no such setting there for me. I'm at a loss for what to do now.

Somehow there's something that keeps popping up my browser every time I plug it into charge or unplug it from charging and I have to delete the tab. Where is the setting on my Android or Firefox for Android that will eliminate pop-ups?

The android version of firefox has a problem the displays a bar asking to download an open pdf whether the pdf is already downloaded or not. There's no option to turn off this bar that ends up blocking a lot of screen space. Maybe I'm missing something. Thanks for looking into this.

I know it could be Samsung pass that's not optimised for firefox but it seems to be working fine on other apps.

Hence my question; Why isn't firefox not optimised for Samsung pass?
