Komunitné fórum Firefox pre Android

Hello, Sometimes my browser is not reponsive when i open it. There is no apparent reason for why it does this. It doesn't load the last opened pages and does not load when i type a query. I have to reboot it several times sometimes before i can use the app again. This is not a major issue as i just use another browser in that case but you can consider this information as a datapoint for "potential bugs". This is exclusive to the app and not the browser.

Happy surfing :)

Whenever I go back and forth between apps, there websites I have on Firefox gets reloaded. It is annoying and has been risky while on my banking website. This is why I have stopped using Firefox for any transaction related work.

I would like to find out why Firefox withdrew $47 from my PayPal debit account. What was it for, I cannot find an invoice or and explanation for the transaction. Please contact me and explain the reason you charged me, I don't remember authorizing you to access my PayPal account although I have made some contributions to Firefox and may have used PayPal to do that.

It says tap the padlock on menu bar to access site permissions. However there is no padlock. Just a shield with checkmark saying that enhanced tracking is on.

I need to allow docusign access to my camera in order to sign loan papers.

Hi everybody, I'm having this weird issue on Firefox for Android that appeared approximately when the last UI change (changing the three-dot-menu) appeared, but I wasn't able to pin it down to any specific point in time.

The issue is that when using the search (/address) bar and hitting enter, instead of the default behavior which is forwarding my search string to my default search engine, a more or less random URL (based on approx the first three letters of my search prompt and then some miraculous autofill) populates the search bar. I have to specifically select an autofill suggestion with the search symbol to avoid this, but autofill doesn't always show up, so opening a new tab is the only thing I can do then.

I'm unsure how to describe this, but I'll give an example: when typing "booker prize" and hitting enter, instead of searching for it, a more or less random website I never have knowingly used and that seems depreacated (https://bookerproxy-new.lot.com/service.php) is autofilled. I can turn off autofill completely in the settings, but then it won't do any autofill at all, including for websites I have bookmarked or visit frequently. So it seems that this autofill feature just is having a bug where it's overly aggressive, but I can't say why.

Also, the search bar has been really slow lately, so actually, 9/10 times, when typing "booker prize" (and the keyboard actually prove this), what reaches the search bar is only something like "bookr pe". This issue isn't present anywhere else on the device, neither in other Firefox text fields nor in other browsers' search bars.

So yeah, I don't know what to do but Firefox on Android has been only good for pulling up sites I've clicked on directly, either as shortcuts on the start menu or links from other apps.

If you have any idea how to fix this behaviour or at least how to trace it's origin I'd be grateful.

I am a big fan of firefox but i see some difference between firefox and chromium based browser that is Smoothness. All those scroll and swipe are beautifully smooth on Chromium based browser but in Firefox, it stutter and feeling visual lag. I know that Firefox is made by different engine but on IOS it's feels smooth but on Android it's sluggish. I hope you guys find a way to fix those problem.

Occasionally (it already happened three times today) when i'm browsing and switching between tabs, one tab will become an image of its contents (as in - no links work, can't scroll vertically or horizontally) and the others become grey. Trying to reload the pages or open new ones doesn't work, they never load. Turning the browser off by going to the phone's home menu and closing Firefox in the recent applications view doesn't solve the problem, it only closes any private tabs but the issue persists when opening any new tab or preexisting ones. The only way to fix the problem is by force stopping the app. I've cleared the cache, it didn't solve the problem, and reinstalling seemed to work for a few days but now the problem is back. For reference, my add-ons/extensions are: Ghostery, NoScript and UBlock Origin.

Dear Mozilla,

I cannot syncronise my phone with my laptop wich would be really useful for me. Thats one of the main reasons I prefer Mozilla as my primary browser. So far I had no problem with it on my other deviceis and so I hope this can be solved.

Thank you!

I have AdGuard app installed that uses a vpn to analyse the traffic and remove the ads even from the apps, not only from the browser.

When AdGuard (app) is turned on with its VPN feature (not an actual VPN, only to block ads), Firefox couldn't open any of the links. I have the certificate from AdGuard installed on my Android device, and even my bank apps trust it. The other browsers are working perfectly fine. Only Firefox couldn't load the pages.

I use the NFC on my phone in order to tap onto a bracelet that gives me a daily scripture. It was working but the past few weeks it either doesn't download, is super slow and only may or may not load the whole thing. Once I uninstall and reinstall the app on my phone it works great. Sometimes it may work a day or even up to 3 days, but lately I'm having to uninstall and reinstall daily. Then I have to customize everything again. It is the same with webpages loading also. I clean the cache regularly and I've checked my internet connection and it's fine. Hopefully, this issue can be resolved. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy A52. This is only happening on the phone and although I can't use the bracelet on my laptop, I don't have any issues with Firefox. Should you need any additional information please let me know.

When I switch to reader mode, characters such as é, è, à,... (All *very* common in French) appear as � This problem doesn't affect every page, and when it happens, the reader view first appears normal, but then switches font to a problematic one. The affected pages were reached through the internet archive, could this be what causes the issue ?

Is there a way of changing the font used by reader mode to one able to display these characters?

Some more Debug info: My phone and Firefox are both set to English, and I'd prefer to keep it that way. I use a couple extensions, but the issue persisted when I deactivated them on these pages.

I have this new issue, that Firefox needs like 3-4 seconds, before loading a page. It stays blank until then. Why has the Performance decreased so much?
