Firefox สำหรับ Android Community Forum

Hello Firefox Support Team, I am experiencing a critical issue with the Firefox Android app where the control to manage pop-up permissions is entirely absent from the main settings menu. This makes it impossible to use any website that relies on pop-ups for critical functions (such as payment processing, SSO login, or document generation).

1. Problem Description The essential option to allow or block pop-ups is missing globally. For instance, when trying to access a government portal (https://sjmsnew.rajasthan.gov.in), a dialog appears stating the pop-up blocker is active, but there is no mechanism within the browser to disable it.

2. Current Device & App Details App: Mozilla Firefox for Android (146.0 (Build #2016129543), 13567a870654c915cd135b87cd1fe4e02fa8fa55 GV: 146.0-20251201213807 AS: 146.0.2 Latest version as of 2025-12-15) Operating System: Android (Android 14)

3. Technical Issue/Configuration The problem is related to the missing permissions toggle: Missing Toggle: In the main Settings \rightarrow Site settings page, the "Pop-ups and redirects" permission toggle is completely missing from the permissions list. Manual Exceptions Disabled: The "Exceptions" list is empty, and there is no visible option (like an 'Add' or '+' button) to manually add a domain to allow pop-ups. Tracking Protection Status: Enhanced Tracking Protection is currently set to the Standard setting.

4. Request This seems to be a UI bug or a configuration oversight in the current Android build, making the browser unusable for many common tasks. I urgently need guidance on either: a) How to restore the "Pop-ups and redirects" permission toggle in the Site Settings. b) An alternative configuration setting (e.g., using about:config) to allow pop-ups globally until a fix is released. Thank you for your prompt assistance.

i love firefox. i tried Firefox, firefox developers, Firefox other forks. i have same problems with them:

1- i cannot copy link's text. it is easy for other browsers, but Firefox doesn't have.

2- when i use search engine i have probles (Google, yandex, bing etc). Imagine that I search for a topic successively on a search engine. Then, when I press the back button, it's like I've pressed back two/three times. Then, when I press the forward button, it's like I've clicked forward three times. (example: first your search 'real madrid football match', then 'real madrid team stats', then 'real madrid vs barcelona', then 'real madrid next match' and you click back button, and unfortunately you see 'real madrid football match' page)

3- i dont close my tabs. if don't use Firefox for a while (sometimes 30 minutes), when i come back, my last tab turn to start page. so, i have to click tabs symbol. after clicking tabs symbol my tab turn to normal and i can reach the website.

I installed the Firefox update this week on my Motorola Moto G Stylus phone running Android 11. Since doing so, the app repeatedly crashes when I click on something in Collections. Bookmarks not in a collection still work, as do other links on the home page. I have restarted the phone, but it did not fix the problem. It is hard to avoid the confusion that this is being caused by something in the update. Will there be a fix released soon?

My Samsung tablet has a "ghost touch" issue - as a solution, I activated a "long press" setting (0.2 seconds). Unfortunately, this clashes with Firefox settings: When I open a link or a page on Firefox, the browser registers only a small scrolling action and then stops registering other actions. I'm down to the point where Firefox is my default browser but I need to find Chrome from the depths of my setup if I need to open something in a pinch - or, in this case, using the syncing function to get the page from the tablet to my smartphone. Is there a way to deactivate custom long press settings on Firefox? Thank you.

This appears on almost every opening of the app. Clicking on "It's great!" asks me to leave a review on Play Store. Clicking on "I'm having issues" asks me to leave feedback at Mozilla Support forums. I don't want to do either, I just want the popup to go away and never return. I keep seeing it even after having already clicked both buttons several times.

I'm on the latest version (145.0.2).

I am trying to change the Android search widget background to transparent.

android:background="@android:color/transparent">

I cannot find the location of the XML file in,

/data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla

What is the widget file called? Is that correct path to find search widget files?

Today, using Firefox--or at least what i think is Firefox--i checed session history while logged into my mega.nz account. It lists 2 instances, one of which is for 3 days prior when I originally set up the Mega account using the Mega app, and the other is for yesterday when I entered the account using the FF browser--or, again, what i think is the FF browser. What's curious is that it shows i was using the Chrome browser, and that I'm apparently still using this browser as it's listed as the "Current" session. How can this be? While I have the Chrome app on my phone, I disabled it long ago and have never used it, and most certainly did not use it during the time and activities in question. I have long speculated that I have been hacked and that my phone is sometimes (always?) controlled by this hacker, though no solid proof. Assuming the hacker uses Chrome, could this be reflecting their using the Chrome browser, as opposed to the FF browser, which I'm currently using (or think im using)? In other words, is this the proof of a hack? Or is this a glitch within Mega, mistakingly listing Chrome as my browser?

Hello. I have a problem with Firefox (fresh install without extensions), which opens links from an external application (In my case Pepper for the discounts of online shopping) with an additional tab.

Preview in the attachment. Two cards open instead of one. The first tab is additional and empty, the second tab is a valid link.

Is there any way to disable this with the help of flags?

This does not happen in either Edge or Brave

If I try to add a bookmark to a folder, none of the folders I have created are listed. I am given the option to create a new folder to add it to; that works, but the new folder has exactly one bookmark in it and there does not seem to be a way to add any more.

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 :)

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.
