"Clipboard" Option In "Contextual Text Selection Toolbar" Missing in Latest Android Firefox Update

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.

Firefox Mobile Slow When Loading Certain Video Sites

Hi,

I’ve noticed that Firefox on my Android phone becomes noticeably slow whenever I open certain video or streaming pages. The browser doesn’t crash, but the page takes a long time to respond, and scrolling becomes choppy until the video fully loads.

I’ve tried clearing the cache, disabling add-ons, and testing on both Wi-Fi and mobile data. The issue only seems to happen on Firefox — the same sites load smoothly on other browsers.

Is this a known performance limitation, or is there something in the settings I should adjust? I’m not sure if it’s related to media decoding or just heavy websites.

Thanks for any guidance.

Sort button no longer sorts when adding bookmarks on Android

When adding a bookmark on Android, I used to be able to sort bookmark order within folders by custom sort, A-Z, and age. Recently (as of 148.0 (Build #2016144279)), the folder menu when adding a bookmark is now different, but the sort options no longer work.

I'm making a post here before making one on Mozilla Connect, in the hopes this bug can be passed on to a developer.

My mobile app Firefox keeps crashing on starting it reinstalling doesn't help it used to work at some point but now it doesn't.

My phone is OnePlus 13 it has the latest EU updates. I can't seem to figure out why it crashes.

I installed the latest version from the Google play store. Other versions of Firefox work fine like nightly or beta only the main one crashes.

Android Collections feature needs work. 1. It's too easy to accidentally delete a bookmark from collections. Slight of hand and it's gone. Needs a confirm delete option. 2. Can't order or edit bookmarks in collections.

Windows 11 There is a way to go to a utility to sort bookmarks, but utility does not translate the sorted order back to the browser menu making it useless.

I reported this once before. I got an arrogant response saying: I'm just a volunteer here I can't do this. I don't have a bugzilla account. I have no way to report these to developers.

Android UI Redesign menu can no longer be disabled

in previous versions the 3 dots menu would open up the newer redesigned main menu that fills the lower 2/3rds of the screen by default, but by enabling debug settings and going into Nimbus Experiments and disabling "Android UI Redesign - Release" it could be changed back to the older, more compact dropdown-styled menu. as of one of the recent updates, the "Android UI Redesign - Release" toggle seemingly does nothing.

I preferred the older menu for several reasons. one issue being that the new menu lacks a new tab button. the others being that it just _feels_ subtly yet annoyingly worse in just about every way.

so, is there any way to still use this old menu, via about:config settings or something? or am I just SOL and need to figure out how to downgrade my version?

Previously, I had my firefox homepage configured to not show shortcuts or recently visited websites, as I feel it is clutter. However, recently, shortcuts have re-appeared, with no option to disable/hide them in the homepage settings (Settings > Homepage only shows Stories, Wallpaper, and app Opening Screen; see attached image). Wondering if this is a feature that was removed (if so, would love to see this reverted), if it is a bug that needs fixing, or I'm missing something.

I have a strange problem when searching for stuff on the internet. (Using google if it matters)

First search I type something like cars. I press enter. I get cars.

Second search I type black cars. I press enter. I get cars again and in the search result it shows i searched cars.

I type black cars again. I press enter. I get black cars, search finally says I searched black cars.

I refresh. I get cars again and the search shows I only searched cars.


Every time I wanna search something I need to open up a new tab or I run into this issue and it's driving me insane. I have no idea where to even start with troubleshooting this problem, it's so strange.

I'm giving my old Galaxy S7 to a friend, I've got her a prepaid SIM and put it into the S7 (my own SIM has gone into a new S22). I've managed to set up the S7 to sync with her data via DAVx5, Thunderbird was easy to set up thanks to the QR-Code export, and various other things worked as expected.

BUT she uses firefox sync, and so do I. I deinstalled firefox on the S7, and reinstalled it, and changed to her sync account - but all my own personal data (bookmarks, chronology etc) are still there. That's not only really annoying, but also a breach of my private sphere.

Google KI tells me to give her sync account a new password, before doing that decoupling from sync on all used devices; we have five, so that would be a real pain. The only other option I see is a factory reset and then repeat all the work setting up the S7.

So what I'm asking for is an option when firefox is deinstalled, or as an extra option in the settings, to delete all stored personal data.
