Komunitné fórum Firefox pre Android

Prior to the 6/16/25 release, hitting the back button on the three button control on a page with no previous pages would open the home page without closing the current tab. After the update, it closes the tab before opening the home page. This was useful for quickly opening multiple tabs, as well as preventing accidentaly closing a tab. Please revert this change, or make it a setting.

On my Samsung Galaxy s6 when I try to add to the home screen and then choose the option to tap and hold and drag to the screen, it just closes the app it is nothing. It doesn't work. The text options from the pop-up do work but the main graphic where it's trying to get you to drag and drop it does not work.

When using the UBLOCK ORIGIN extension i cant Join the app. i need to turn it off, then I can join the Firefox nightly. I need help because I use this extension so much.

Hi. When I go to YouTube.com on the Firefox mobile browser, I cannot for the life of me find my notifications. On the Firefox PC browser, there is a bell icon in the top right of the screen, but not only is it missing in the mobile browser, I cannot find any button or section labeled "notifications." Please advise.

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?

Hi, the latest nightly version crashes everytime on my Pixel 8 Pro. Clearing cache, force stopping and restarting the phone doesn't help.

version 141.0a1 org.mozilla.fenix

On Firefox nightly when viewing all open tabs, the thumbnail displayed does not show the current underlying web page. Instead it shows some prior web page thumbnail ... see attached screenshot

When you view the attached screenshot, the bottom left tab is playing a video with the title robot revolution, yet the thumbnail displayed on that tab is from a prior site that I viewed on that same tab

Dear all,

I just found that in Firefox 139 for Android the menu buttons "Install" and "Add to Home Screen" disappeared. I tried deleting the cache, reinstalling, restarting the smartphone. I tried different websites, included well-known PWA apps (i.e. https://github.com/mdn/pwa-examples ).

I'm on Lineage 22.2.

The community guides still report the availability of this feature: https://mzl.la/3p7ltJx

Am I missing something?

Example with facebook.com in the images. Note that on x.com a popup asks me if I want to installa the app version of the website, but the menu options are still missing. It's only website I found where that popup shows up.

Hello, when using a dropdown list that is connected to an external source (excel on the cloud), firefox on android does not offer us options. It works in other browsers. Ideal worked in Opera. Where is the problem with firefox?

Best regards Minárik

A couple of updates ago, the setting to move the address bar location from top to bottom vanished. Please put it back! Machine is a Lenovo 11.5 if that's relevant.

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

sync with mobile and laptop. URL in Firefox has Icon to accept QR code, so I tap that and camera comes on. I take a snapshot of the QR code on the laptop, but then syncing gives the error message that does not make sense to anyone from THIS planet and does not sync.

Hi everyone,

I'm a new user here and I'm facing a very specific and frustrating technical issue with Firefox for Android that I hope someone can help me diagnose.

I've been trying to download a large file, but it seems to get corrupted every single time when I use Firefox. The download completes, but the resulting APK file is unusable and gives an error during installation ("There was a problem parsing the package").

To be very specific, so you can hopefully replicate the issue, I am trying to download a game modification file. The file is a gta san andreas mod apk that includes a cleo menu. The file size is quite large, over 1GB.

Here is the exact source page where I am initiating the download from: https://modhello.com/gta-san-andreas/ https://modhello.com/gta-san-andreas/

Here's the crucial part:

When I download this file using Google Chrome on the same Android device and the same Wi-Fi network, the download is successful and the file works perfectly. When I use Firefox for Android, it fails every time. This makes me strongly believe the issue is with how Firefox for Android handles large file downloads, not with the file or the server itself.

I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:

Cleared Firefox's cache and data. Tried downloading on both Wi-Fi and mobile data. Ensured I have more than 10GB of free storage on my device. So my questions for the community are:

Is this a known bug? Are there issues with Firefox for Android's download manager when handling large APK files, specifically ones that might be a gta san andreas mod apk with a cleo menu? Could Firefox's Enhanced Tracking Protection or other security features be interfering with the download stream, causing the file to become corrupted? Are there any settings in about:config that I could tweak to make the downloader more stable for large files? I really want to continue using Firefox as my primary browser on Android, but this download issue is a major problem for me. Any technical advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
