Hi,

The question may asked for a lot but... I have a Mozilla account with about 1000 bookmarks, years of hystory and tons of passwords, in brief, i'm locked to Mozilla ecosystem.

Someone gifted me an ipad, so my first thing is to install FF on this to enjoy the web as i like (without ads btw).

As always on new devices, i've looking for uBlock Origin wich is the only serious adblocker on the market.

What a deception to see that it's not possible to install any extension on IOS...

Yes, i can use the ublock "extension" for Safari but then i cannot sync with my other devices.

Guys i dont know what to do, all my data is on my Mozilla account because i trusted them for years, but my iPad suddendly goes unusable because the web with ads is unusable and the web witout my Mozilla account is unusable.

What about a fork with uBlock integrated by default ?

Thanks a lot

Turn off autofill in google search

I am trying to disable the autofill in the google search bar from the mobile app, however I can’t find it. I have disabled every option under the browser settings in the app and have found no fix. For example, I had previously visited a site called “bengals wire” now every time I look up “bengals” and hit enter it takes me to that website instead of the google search. It’s just really annoying to have to always put a space after what I’m looking up. I would prefer not to have to use private browsing to circumvent this. I have included a picture as well. Thank you.

Description: Bookmarks saved in the Bookmarks Toolbar on Firefox Desktop are not being synced to Firefox for iOS. Bookmarks saved in other folders (e.g. Bookmarks Menu) sync correctly and appear on iOS as expected.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Add a bookmark to the Bookmarks Toolbar on Firefox Desktop.
  2. Wait for sync or trigger sync manually.
  3. Open Firefox on iOS and check bookmarks.

Expected behavior: The bookmark appears in the Bookmarks Toolbar folder on iOS.

Actual behavior: The Bookmarks Toolbar folder on iOS still shows outdated content. Bookmarks in other folders sync without issues.

Troubleshooting already performed:

  • Disconnected and reconnected Sync on iOS
  • Reinstalled Firefox on iOS
  • Enabled background app refresh for Firefox on iOS
  • Verified that both devices are connected to the same Mozilla account (last sync timestamp confirmed on accounts.firefox.com)

Environment:

  • Desktop: Firefox 149.0 (64-Bit)
  • iOS: Firefox for iOS 149.1

Issue with Wix site not displaying correctly on Firefox Mobile, which Wix support says is a browser-side problem.

We are experiencing a display issue with our Wix-built website when accessed via Firefox Mobile (iOS). After troubleshooting with Wix Support, they confirmed the site’s code is clean and the issue is not on their end. Their official response was that this is a Firefox-specific problem and outside of Wix’s control. They advised us to reach out directly to the Firefox iOS Mobile development team for resolution.

Here is the relevant excerpt from Wix Support:

“This is an issue that is related to their browser specifically. So this will have to be fixed by Firefox. We suggest reaching out directly to their team for a fix to be put in place.”

We would appreciate guidance on whether this is a known compatibility issue, and if not, how we can collaborate to resolve it so that our site functions properly on Firefox Mobile.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open Firefox Mobile on iOS (latest version).

Navigate to our Wix site: moversandshakersdance.com/enroll

Try and fill out the form and experience the random zooming issues after text input on form fields.

Observe that as you go through the form Firefox randomly zooms in creating a frustrating user experience.

Compare with Safari/Chrome on iOS — site displays correctly there.
