"Open Links in App Setting" not being honored

Sometimes I am using the youtube app to watch something on a TV, but want to quickly look up a video for someone else on my browser at the same time. I have my settings to "always ask" me whether or not to open links in their native app or stay in FireFox. But recently the setting has not been sticking. I've had to reset the settings at least three times today. What's going on? Am I doing something wrong in settings?

Problem with opening a local pdf file with FF for Android

Hello, I have Firefox for Android 151.0.4 on a Samsung A50 with Android 9. On the SD card of the device I have several pdf files which can be opened with Adobe Acrobat with no problems. Instead, when I go to the device's file manager, move to that SD card, long-tap on one of those pdf files, tap on the three dots to see more options, choose "Open with" and finally select Firefox, I have that Firefox opens with a "File not found" page and the address bar shows, for instance "content://media/external/file/22098" while the pdf file I tried opening is "/SD Card/Test.pdf".

Is it possible to open local pdf files on my device with Firefox for Android? In the positive case, how can I do it in my case?

Thank you

I apologize for the mess I made entering duplicate requests. The is the latest UPDATED request on 6/24/2026 at 3:30 PM EDT

I'm using Firefox for Android version 152.0.1 (Build #2016167575) on a Galaxy S24 Plus phone running Android 16.

Firefox is set as the default browser. It always opens whenever a task requires a browser. But when I try to open an HTML file by tapping or long pressing it, the dialog window that opens doesn't show Firefox as an option. Screenshot_#1_20260624.jpg

I have checked the settings in "Apps that can open links", all apps there show "In other app" In "Default apps", Firefox is under "Browser app". Screenshot_#2_20260624.jpg

What do I need to do so Firefox is either the default app for HTML files or at least shows up in the "Dialog window"? Screenshot_#1_20260624.jpg

Thank you!

Problems syncing between Macbook and Android

Hello,

I've always used Firefox, and have had whichever Macbook and Android devices I've had synced for years. I recently got a newer phone, had an issue, returned it and got the same model. Since getting the new phone, Firefox not only takes hours to properly sync to be able to even see my Macbook's tabs, but I can't even send myself links from Macbook to my Android phone. Password and bookmark syncing is also spotty. I've tried signing out, made sure these are the only two devices on my account, and I've uninstalled and reinstalled. It's been this way through many updates for both my device and Firefox. I use both devices interchangeablely and it's critical enough to me that I may switch to a different browser. Any help would be appreciated.

For the past.. month I would say, any time I try to use Youtube on my Firefox Browser it nearly always switches over to landscape mode after watching a video. It doesn't matter whether my phone screen's auto rotate is on or off it still does it. Yes. I already tried to turn my auto rotate on to switch it back to potrait mode, it still won't work. The only solution I currently have is closing Youtube all together from my Browser, which really REALLY sucks!!

Can someone PLEASE look into the glitch?!
