I have tried to keen a two year old version of Firefox for Android going but finally had to update. I have always used and supported Firefox since the start but I am now loosing my patience with the new development.

All I want is to open a new tab and it will take me straight to my homepage. Something that used to be a basic feature of using a search engine. Now days I have to tap about three times to select my homepage in Google.

I have seen this question asked before on this and no defined answer. I have tried everything.

Why do I have to have a custom Firefox page in every new tab, I don't care about all the noise from sites, preferences - I don't want to know some morose politicians wears pink frilly nickers every time I open a tab... All I want is to simply, easily start my search on Google again every time I open a new tab.

Not much to ask is it?

P.S Yes I have cleared all preferences on Firefox homepage tab. Set Google as my homepage & not using any customised jump back ins. My opening is also set to homepage- doesn't work

Hello,

I have found that the Korean search engine, 'NAVER', disappeared from the list of search engine in Firefox for Android of Korean version.

NAVER has been renowned for its popular search engine in Korea, so most people can't be without it online.

Anyone who knows whether Firefox can restore it as before?

The Guardian website: 40 second hangs when using tabs (FF Android)

Hi!

Version: FF Android 101.2.0 (plus other version stuff I can provide if needed), Android 12

Just thought I'd report this because it appears to be a consistent, reasonably long-standing issue (months) on a popular news site. Or is it "just me"?

Website: https://www.theguardian.com/uk (several million uniques visitors per month)

Expected behaviour: I am able to open various links on this website as backround tabs and continue browsing.

Actual behaviour: 1. After a couple are opened, Firefox for Android hangs for very close to 40 seconds then does a deep redraw/repaint of all tabs and continues to function until I next try to open another background tab from that website. 2. During the hang tab interface continues to redraw, but the pages are not repainted and no taps events work. 3. At the end of this hang time, the pages appear to redraw from scratch and the context pop-up for the third long-press appears on top of whichever tab I was looking at.

It is 100% repro for me -- long-press fails when attempting to open the 3rd background tab, but repaint failure occurs earlier. There is something toxic happening.

Curiously, when I next view my Android Home screen, there is some sort deep refresh/repaint, as if it has been swapped-out or GC'd etc.

e.g. Is there some massive memory blow-out happening?

Context/workarounds: 1. I have tried clearing all browsing data and using a guess account on the phone. 2. I have no addins installed. 3. Neither Chrome nor FF Desktop exhibit this behaviour. This ia FF Android specific

Thanks!

Hi,

Find attached images of the version no. of the Firefox update I'm attempting to install via apkPure on my Huawei EMUI12 device, and the corresponding security alert.

The alerts concern mismatched security signatures, and advise to install with caution.

Kindly advice.

Hello,

I'm running Firefox on MIUI 13/Android 12. I am using the "add to home screen" feature to create a link on the home screen too a specific website (not an app, just an url). The link is created on the home screen, but if I click on it, it doesn't work, nothing happens - unless I previously start Firefox, minimize it, click the link and then the link works. It looks as if the link can not start up Firefox, but if the Firefox it's already running, it works. This is a relatively new problem, only appeared since I upgraded to Android 12. I tested with Chrome and there are no problems with that one.

I tried giving it all types of permissions, autostart etc.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you, Nirmal

I have this as a statement in my Playstore review, and Mozilla asked me to put it here as a question! But it really is NOT a question and they should have requested it as feedback instead. But I'll expand on it a bit here anyway. The problem involves keeping tabs open all the time. They should not lose their qualities but they do when you leave and then return latet to such a tab when it comes to Desktop Site selection. The flag still shows it as enabled but in actuality when you examine the page itself you find that it no longer behaves like it, and it won't even let you disable and then re-enable it to fix it! It just ignores your presses at that point! It's definitely a bug and it wasn't there earlier at some point although I'm not sure when it stopped working and might have even been with different Android versions being that I had only recently started using it on Android 11. But at some point in earlier Android versions it definitely had worked and the tabs we're also rearrangeable back then as well. The bottom line is that the problem isn't hard to reproduce...it's there CONSTANTLY and you just need to keep your tabs open all the time and try keeping them as desktop selected for them while working on other apps so that it temporarily dies in the background and then returning back and then you'll see right away that it has this problem.  :)
