Форум сообщества Firefox для Android

I default to using private browsing on Android. However, even with having one tab open(no tabs open in normal browsing) firefox consumes way too much resources after a while and only having one tab open (>2.5 Gb of ram).

I noticed that normal browsing caches itself when it is not active on screen while private browsing keeps running in background and memory usage keeps going up by the second. Attached are screenshots of memory usage going from around 250mb to 2.5gb in couple of minutes. All I had open was a single tab!!

How do you stop auto refresh while on Facebook website? I'm using Firefox for Android and I access my SocMed accounts via websites no resource giving app. With that said I guess FB has page refresh enforced into the it's HTML and it's very annoying. I've set my PC browser to block auto refresh but can't find a solution for Android.

I watch Youtube on the Firefox browser for android on desktop mode on my Samsung Galaxy tab A9+, usually in private. Lately Youtube puts me in a playlist when i click on music. This only happens when I watch music videos it's not an issue on any other type of video so far. It doesn't do it when I am logged into YouTube, private browsing or not.

Whilst viewing news stories in Google, I keep getting pages that do not load, so I go to settings – apps- Firefox, scroll down to memory and clear the cache. I go bag to Google new click the link and most of the time I am taken to the page and can read the article (but not every time). But the page not loading happens frequently and it is becoming a pain having to clear the cache over and over again. Is there a shortcut I can use to reach Firefox memory or is there a way of stopping Firefox to clear the cache as it is created.

I am writing to report an issue with the page frequently auto-refreshing. This feature causes a significant disruption, especially when I am in the middle of entering information into data fields, such as forms, passwords, or One-Time Passwords (OTPs).

Every time the page automatically refreshes, all the data I have input is lost, forcing me to restart the process from the very beginning. This happens repeatedly and is extremely frustrating.

I request that this auto-refresh functionality be disabled. It would be much better if the refresh action could only be initiated manually by the user. This would ensure that data being entered remains intact without interruptions that cause the process to restart.

Subject: Issue Report: Automatic Page Refresh Causes Data Loss in Formsbold text

Problem Description: The page/screen automatically and continuously refreshes on its own without user command.

Impact of the Issue: This automatic refresh is highly disruptive because:

1. It erases all data currently being entered into forms (e.g., user details, passwords, OTPs).

2. It forces the user to repeatedly restart the data entry process from scratch.

3. It significantly hinders and slows down the completion of any task on the page.

Suggested Solution: Please disable the automatic refresh feature. The refresh action should be user-initiated only (e.g., via a manual refresh button or a "pull-to-refresh" gesture) to prevent data loss during input. Thank you.

For the last 2ish months, Firefox will refresh the page if I just place my finger on the screen.

If I put my finger on the screen (not swiping down) the refresh wheel will pop up and refresh the page.

It doesn't happen all the time, maybe once or twice a day, but it happens on every page and causes me to lose stuff like where I was on a page and what I was typing. It doesn't do it when the keyboard is up.

Any suggestion as to what's wrong with it?

I use Firefox now a days. I had noticed a thing the webpage are not rendering properly in android or you can say not allignment properly (i had attached reference photo). And there should be improved in translation for language for japanese and hindi(not there in Firefox right now). So kind support the issue

I am presently engaged in the development of a website. I regularly open it with Firefox Android after making changes. I have noticed that even after deleting the entire history and reloading the page, the old navigation links still appear, although they have been partially replaced or deleted on the page.

FX mobile version 139.0.4, Galaxy A14 5G

If I pause for longer than 4 seconds while typing a YouTube comment/reply the keypad disappears and I have to tap in the text box to make the keypad reappear.

How do I make the keypad remain unconditionally visible while typing YouTube comments/replies?

I'm trying to download a few game mod APKs, like Stick War: Legacy Mod APK at https://legacystickwarapp.com/, but some links either fail to load or redirect oddly when using Firefox on my Android device. Is this a Firefox issue or something else? The same link works fine in Chrome. Is there any setting or security feature in Firefox blocking this?

Would appreciate any help!

NOTE - I HAVE ALREADY TOGGLED OFF ALWAYS REQUEST DESKTOP SITE. Since the latest update (6/2025), Firefox is always showing the desktop site EVEN THOUGH I HAVE TOGGLED OFF THE ALWAYS REQUEST DESKTOP SITE (SEE PHOTO). I have checked my settings, cleared cache, restarted my tablet (I'm on a Samsung Tab A8). See photos attached. Photo 1 - desktop site 2 - showing desktop toggled off 3 - "mobile" site 4 - mobile view from a different browser, what mobile should look like.
