When using Bing as the search engine, typing in Chinese returns garbled text and malformed URL suggestions. This also occurs when visiting bing.com directly and typing in Chinese into the search box; however, English input works perfectly fine. Other search engines (such as Google, Baidu, DuckDuckGo) do not have this issue. The problem is specific to Firefox—it does not occur on Chrome. I have tried reinstalling Firefox and clearing all data, but the issue persists. However, it disappears when I use an extension to spoof Firefox's user agent to mimic Chrome。However, extensions cannot be used on the homepage, so this issue is essentially unfixable

Message: Hello,I need help with Firefox on Android. When I try to confirm online banking payments (UPN payments), the push notification from my bank does not appear. My bank (NLB) uses its internal authentication system, and the mobile banking app acts as the authenticator for confirming payments. The browser only initiates the payment request, but the confirmation must arrive through the bank’s mobile app. Here is my current setup:– HTTPS‑Only Mode: enabled in all tabs– Notifications: allowed– Cookies: allowed– JavaScript: enabled– No ad‑blockers– Battery optimization disabled for Firefox and the banking app– Banking app has full permission to run in the background and receive push notifications Despite this, the push notification for payment confirmation does not arrive when using Firefox.Could you please tell me which Firefox settings I should change or check to ensure full compatibility with banking push notifications on Android?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently migrating my Android automation setup (using uiautomator2) from Chrome to Firefox because Chrome frequently drops the accessibility tree. However, I've run into a specific issue regarding how Firefox handles external app intents via JavaScript redirects.

Scenario: A webpage opens a new tab and executes the following script to redirect the user: window.location.href = "https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cad=rja&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLh5orBSaS4";

Expected Behavior (What Chrome does): Chrome detects the YouTube link, automatically triggers the intent to open the native YouTube Android app, and closes that redirect tab.

Actual Behavior (What Firefox does): Firefox simply navigates to m.youtube.com within the browser tab and does not open the native YouTube app.

Additional Context:

I have the "Open links in apps" setting enabled in Firefox settings, but it doesn't seem to trigger for this specific window.location.href redirect.

Because I rely on uiautomator2 for my workflow, having Firefox trap the link inside the browser instead of handing it off to the YouTube app breaks the automation chain.

Is there a known workaround, or perhaps a specific flag in about:config (I can use Firefox Beta/Nightly if needed) to force Firefox Android to respect the deep link/intent and open the native app for this type of redirect?

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have Firefox set as my default. When I need to get a library book using Libby, that app takes me to Amazon.com through my default browser. I have been unable to login to check out the books. It asks for the email or phone number and when I select the next step, it clears it and shows that same page again. Now, to get my library books, I must change my default browser to Chrome, check out the book and then change it back.

I cleared cache then cleared data. Neither option changed the outcome.

I'm using Samsung S23 Ultra.

on Android if I go to facebook in Desktop mode, the whole screen is translucent white and i can't press anything. switching to mobile mode no issue.

I don't have any Extension enabled, and i turned off Enhanced Tracking Protection but it didn't change anything.

Hi, I am using Firefox Beta on my android Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite and a OnePlus Pad 3. Since a recent update of Firefox beta I can no longer enter text into my Hosting UK webmail. If I access my webmail account via Google or Chrome the webmail account works fine. Could Firefox look into this or return to an earlier version that worked

Hello. The PWS dashboard is not loading data and showing a blank screen on Firefox for Android (normal tab). It works fine on private tabs and other browsers. It is a compatibility issue with Firefox's Total Cookie Protection blocking the PWS API data request. Please check the website's data tracking structure to fix this compatibility bug.

Hi, my local news paper is publishing an on line version.. requires me to zoom & scroll.. but on Firefox Android version when I zoom & scroll, after I remove my finger from the screen, the display reverts to top left corner of the image... The zoom & scroll function works perfectly on Google Chrome... Link. But needs a subscription... https://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/html5/reader/production/default.aspx?pubname=Largs%20and%20Millport%20News&edid=f3655f15-2611-47a7-839b-694ef61e9fb2

Reporting (via the browser) websites that will not let me log in using Firefox has had no effect so I have given up. I use Chrome for any sites that don't work on Firefox. I am just leaving this here because I was asked for feedback.

I am using Firefox for Android. I normally use ChatGPT in Firefox instead of the Android ChatGPT app.

I found a reproducible issue with chatgpt.com and the Firefox setting “Open links in apps”.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the official ChatGPT Android app. 2. Open Firefox for Android. 3. Go to Settings > Open links in apps. 4. Set it to “Never”. 5. Open https://chatgpt.com.

Actual result: The website connects, but the page content is blank.

6. Change “Open links in apps” to “Ask before opening”. 7. Open https://chatgpt.com again. 8. When Firefox asks whether to open the external ChatGPT app, tap “Cancel”.

Actual result: The ChatGPT website loads normally inside Firefox.

Then I uninstalled the ChatGPT Android app.

After uninstalling the app, Firefox no longer shows the external-app prompt. However, chatgpt.com becomes a blank page again, regardless of whether “Open links in apps” is set to “Never” or “Ask before opening”.

Expected result: If “Open links in apps” is set to “Never”, or if I tap “Cancel” on the external-app prompt, chatgpt.com should load normally in Firefox.

This looks like a Firefox for Android compatibility issue with Android App Links / external app handling for chatgpt.com. It may also involve the website fallback behavior, but the blank page seems to depend on Firefox’s external-link setting.

While filling a form in a web page, and switch to another application for data fetching, the web page simply reloads itself making it a huge burden to fill in all the detail. While this does not happen in opera.

I've installed Firefox cause I get to know it's not chromium based, It seems fun but the sites are not loading properly, google search is not functioning normally like the ai mode or the ai summary you get It's not working and site are taking too much time to load I've only installed the recommended extensions maybe that could be the reason but I don't know and you guys should improve the UI make more character to it that's all you guys are doing great best regards
