The long-press back button no longer summons the tab's history on my Android phone or my Galaxy tab. Mozilla appears to have disabled this feature quite recently. I'm referring to the small arrow in the lower right-hand corner that you hit quickly to go back once. It was quite useful to do a long press on the arrow and have the history of the tab pop up in a list. You could then pick any page on the list and go directly back, skipping over all the other pages.

Please reinstate this useful feature?

I'm experiencing an issue with Firefox where my saved passwords from my desktop aren't syncing to my Android phone. Pressing the "Sync Now" button doesn't trigger any action. I've tried several troubleshooting steps, including removing and readding the device, force stopping the app, clearing cache and data, and manually syncing again, but nothing has worked. It seems like a bug. Any suggestions?

Long pressing the Android back button on the navigation bar no longer displays the tab's history on Firefox Android.

S22 Ultra Android 13

134.0.1 (Build #2016067655)

I just discovered a bunch of installed extensions in the list I don't recognize, including several I definitely would not be interested in.

Is this the way Firefox android works?

I have updated to the latest Firefox version for the Android app, using Samsung Galaxy S20. When viewing YouTube in mobile view (desktop view works though) through the browser, the comment section seem to be invisible and not showing. I have tried fresh reinstalling, and toggled all the settings, but I can't seem to get it to work on Firefox. Other browsers like chrome works just fine. Is this a bug?

Firefox for Android on Pixel 8: When trying to use the Google image search in the browser or the search widget, there is no shutter button or any other camera controls—see attached screenshot. I have uninstalled/reinstalled FF multiple times and have rebooted the phone. This feature works fine in Chrome and the Google widget.

136.0.2 (Build #2016079799)

Latest version (version above) on Android appears to have issues on startup of displaying shortcuts on the homepage. It doesn't initially display them, but if I select the private browsing symbol, then select it again to return to normal browsing, the shortcuts reappear. Then when I start Firefox later, having closed it down for a while, the same issue occurs.

Also, from not showing the homepage icons, clicking the '0' and clicking the '+' to add a new tab displays the icons.

Firefox used to start up and display the shortcuts without having to go through the above process.

I've tried various settings for the homepage but none resolve this.

Anyone having the same issue?

Screenshots attached.

Since version 134 of Firefox Android has been out, it crashes EVERY TIME when I try ot use the "back" gesture on my Xiaomi 14(i.e. swiping from right or left side of the screen) I tried Firefox 134, Iceraven 2.27 (also based on the same Gecko) - they act the same. In the same time I also have Waterfox, based in the previous version of Firefox 133, and it responds properly. I guess it is related to the latest version only. Here's the crash log:

Can a long standing issue — previously closed as "RESOLVED INCOMPLETE" — be recalled as a New Issue?

I have been using uBlock Origin for years to block ads in youtube. Recently I started getting ads again and when I checked I found uBlock was disable snd couldn't be enabled. I dl the latest version but it gives me an error message when I try to load it. Please help.

There used to be a forward arrow option in the three button menu. Now there is not and I cannot find out where it is or how to navigate forward.

This seems like a bug because navigating forward is a core function of browsing. Anyone know where it went or how to fix this?

Hi, I have Firefox for Android running on my Samsung Galaxy S23 and the windows version on my PC. Both are logged in to the same Firefox account and are syncing fine. On my PC, the password manager is working as expected and autofilling website passwords.

However, on my phone, I can't seem to get the autofill to work. I have been needing to go into the password manager and copy the password every time. It will ask to save the password and the password manager has everything stored as expected. Tried various things like logging in and logging out but nothing has fixed it. I did notice that Samsung Pass often pops up during the website login process and was wondering if this could be the reason Firefox password manager is not working for autofill.

Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Since I upgraded to the latest version, Firefox is sluggish and crashes on a regular basis. I have changed my privacy settings from strict to default, has not changed the problem. How can I go back to old version? I choose Firefox because of the privacy concerns, and understand that some websites won't work well, but I've never experienced consistent problems with the app crashing.

When listening to YouTube in the background, sound is distorted and stutters frequently, which makes it pretty much unusable. Audio is okay when Firefox is in the foreground, but as soon as I lock the phone, audio stutters appear.

I found one fix on Reddit, disabling HD sound in developer options, but I was unable to try it since nobody explained how to get to these developer options, I wasn't able to find that setting myself.

It started happening since 135, was in beta as well. I opted out of beta because of it, but it came on stable release as well so now both beta and stable versions has this issue.

Has anybody encounter that or have fix?

If I browse to http://hackgreensdr.org:8901/m.html The mobile version of the venerable Hack Green WebSDR. I cannot get any sound. This is the whole purpose of this! Note this is a insecure HTTP Not HTTPS website. Need to allow HTML5 I am very surprised there are not lots of request for this.
