Komunitné fórum Firefox pre iOS

I’m switching to Firefox from Google. But I use Google lens for identifying things. I don’t know about. I wondered if Firefox has a Google lens or similar utility?

Hi I keep getting an error message saying “complete the form correctly” when I add the web address for https://www.ecosia.org/

I don’t understand the reference to the sample YouTube link but imagine this is part of the issue??

Thx

This is on an iPhone btw.

Basics = Iphone 11, Current ios and fresh version of Firefox, as of 1/2 hour ago. Today is Feb 26, 2026. For the past 2 weeks, my Firefox search engine has been hijacked by a Google search engine. I can tell bc of the tiny round icon that is displayed at beginning of line where I enter my internet query. I just now downloaded a new version of FF, restarted my iphone11, and am still having the Google emblem showing at the beginning of search entry line. I do not want to use Google for anything, if possible. BTW, all of my internet access is via my FF app on my homepage. Are my searches still “safe” bc I am first accessing FF icon on my home page then secondly accessing Google to do my searches? Thanks so much. 🌷

Previously, on Firefox iOS, I would tap on the URL bar, type a search query, hit enter, and I would immediately navigate to the Google search page.

Now, in-between hitting enter and navigating to the Google search page, there is a multi second delay.

Tried to check all possible settings, but cannot see any place I can turn this on. I see that if I use google.com for new tabs I can use the google page voice search icon. Want this as an icon directly in the url text field

I am confused because I downloaded Firefox and I thought that was going to be my new browser replacing Safari and then I downloaded the DuckDuckGo thinking that was going to be the search engine that replaces Google now it looks as though their arrivals and then I don't understand how they both work and I'm very confused can you please help explain what each of them are and what their uses are and if I should have both of them are only one. Thank you

Hi I cannot find any way to scan an URL QR code directly from Firefox. I expected that a QR code icon would appear when i tap the address bar, but I can't find such icon...

Of course, I checked the settings: camera is enabled in Firefox settings and QR code scanning is enabled in system settings.

Is there any way to scan QR codes directly from Firefox settings?

I use the latest version of both Firefox (146.1 (65627)) and iOS (iOS 26.3 (23D5089e)) iOS is a beta version... Could this be the reason why...

Many thanks in advance for any help on advice.

iPad iOS 26 Firefox Focus (FFF) and Magic Keyboard (MK) — Cannot use search field after upgrading to iOS 26 — need to disconnect iPad from MK, then use on-screen keyboard, then reconnect MK and then can type with MK — that is more likely an iOS 26 bug, but it is effecting both FFF and regular iPad Firefox.

I've reinstalled and updated Firefox on my iPhone 15, but still there's a Google logo in the search box, not Firefox logo. I hate Google and don't want it in my searches.

Why is it there and how can I get rid of it?

I have added Startpage as another search engine and I can set it as the default engine allowing me to search with Startpage from the URL field. However, when I close firefox and start it again it's back to Google? Firefox 144.3 (63239)

When I search on Firefox on my iPhone 14, the search results are in a tiny font. This just started happening this summer. Everything, all the search results are tiny. So, I no longer use Firefox. How can I change it back to the way it used to be?

Default search is reset to Google every time I close and reopen Firefox. How do I make Firefox remember my choices? I am setting Brave to be the default search.

Thanks!

Hi - I have added Kagi as a search engine and set it to be the default. This works as expected, until at some point, hours later, for reasons I don’t understand, it switches itself back to DuckDuckGo. Kagi remains available as a choice, and I can re-reset it back to default. I’m not sure if this is a bug, or a misconfiguration on my part. Thanks.

Hi - I’m experiencing that the Firefox app on my iPhone (iOS) has a bug where it’s causing it to automatically switch search engines from the search engine I have set in settings to another one that I have disabled. It’s becoming extremely annoying & frustrating that I have to go in and reset it every time it does it - which is close to four times a day. Also I’ve noticed that I can no longer delete search engines I don’t use. Please fix.
