Komunitné fórum Firefox pre iOS

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to customize the shortcuts on my Firefox New Tab page in ipad Air, but I can't figure out how to do a couple of things. I'd like to:

1. Rename a shortcut (change the text label that appears below the icon) 2. Change the icon/image of a shortcut

First of all why can’t ipad version of Firefox can’t get my shorts cuts from my Firefox Sync?

The icon of the shortcuts in ipad seems to auto-update based on the website's favicon — is there any way to manually set a custom image for a shortcut? Are there any about:config tweaks in ipad?

I'm running the latest Firefox version on [Windows/macOS - sync enabled].

Thanks in advance for any help!

Cheers

While In the British Virgin Island would it be possible to stream Pandora or Spotify through the Mozilla VPN? Would the streaming platforms think I am in the US? I’ll be using my IPad Pro 13 or my Iphone 17. Would I simply open the Pandora app on my device or would I need to log into the pandora site through the Mozilla browser? Thank you, BF

This is the message I get when I try to login to YouTube. Why? I've been using YouTube for years.

Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with www.youtube.com. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

Thank you for your help. Rhonda

When I try to view pages of art on the site COMIC ART FANS, Firefox sometimes opens the jpgs but sometimes only gives me a visual description of the artwork, no picture. Chrome opens these pages, so does safari, what's wrong with firefox?

Survey prompts every time I open app for first time. Regardless of answer nothing happens. How do I make it go away permanently? I’m fine with taking a survey but it just doesn’t open.

I frequently have to toggle on the translate feature to view pages in the country I’m living in. When the translate feature is active, and if I am filling out a web-form, I am unable to leave/minimize the page (say, to go to the notes app to copy and paste an ID number, address, etc), because once I return Firefox blinks and empties the form. I only notice this when translate is on, no other time. So I have to fill out forms in another language or make sure I have all important info literally written on paper to keep from having to leave the app for any reason. Is there a workaround?

It's been a number of updates now that bookmark keywords have stopped working on iOS. Typing a keyword in the address bar just calls the default search engine for that word instead of opening the bookmark directly. When will this bug be fixed?

When I click on links that cause the browser to open on iOS, nothing happens and none of the command buttons in the browser respond at all after about a minute or so it seems to have sorted itself out and becomes usable. This is making the browser unuseable and may force me to switch to another browser cause I don’t always have time to wait.

I want to try firefox on my iPhone but I don’t like that it shows recent searches on the homepage and I (or anyone looking over my shoulder) can see everything I searched. I think it just looks ugly and I don’t want to remove the search everytime I want a clean looking honepage. I have tried looking for the answer everywhere but to no avail. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me. If It’s even possible.

(In the image below I’m showing what I don’t want it to look like)

Isn't there a toolbar for available the top of the Firefox window? I can't find how to set that up. How do I add the toolbar?

See pic.
