Firefox bu Android Community Forum

As of around 6 weeks ago (bit of a guess) I no longer have the option of pausing/playing media on a tab from the tab list. For at least the last few years prior to this issue, whenever I had a tab playing media (mostly video, but sometimes audio e.g. a podcast episode on BBC.com) there would be a small pause button for that tab in the tab list.

I've attached a screenshot. The tab with the purple circle is currently playing a MP4 video (streamable.com) and I would usually see a pause button, I think where the circle is located but might have been in a different corner.

I found this Reddit thread which mentions the issue but outside of the 2 people in this thread I have not found any other info or reports. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1rh5gcy/youtube_buttons_playpause_missing_in_android/

When the screen rotates, many videos freeze and thereafter all videos become unresponsive (and even some elements of the Firefox UI stop responding to taps) until the application is closed and restarted. I have experienced this problem for at least a year now. Reddit is a repeatable example: going to any feed (such as r/popular with videos), playing one, and rotating the screen.

I turned off all battery and CPU optimizations for Firefox, which improves performance on videos somewhat, but does not resolve this issue.

Subject Crew Travel access issue Hello, I am still unable to access Crew Travel (RCT). The page shows “The page isn’t redirecting properly” even after clearing cache, enabling cookies, and trying different browsers and networks. Could you please check if there is an issue with my account or the system? Thank you

my mobile app seems to always have the p. w. & log. ins available where as my desktop will pop-up asks me to at least once "sign. in" .. I believe they are synced .. am concerned for a phone gran & aitomatically having P.W. access to my sites .. am I missing a setting?

Please add a bookmark setting to remove the counter in bookmark folders. Better still just remove it all together. It has made bookmarks harder to find and doubles the screen I have stuck to version 143.0 to avoid this

Can you add YouTube chromium browser feature that swipe down from bottom edge of the video to full screen mode?

When I play a YouTube video, then I don't want it to be landscape Fullscreen. I want it to be portrait full screen mode where I can focus the present video without being distracted by others video thumbnail.

And guys please focus on popular platform to make them free of premium service like YouTube, Facebook and others. That's how you'll get their users who wants to get the premium feature for free like Brave browser focusing YouTube, that's great. But Brave don't have ublock origin extension, that's why I use Firefox. Because Brave Built in ads blocker can't block Facebook ads. Facebook ads only listen the BOSS called ublock origin.

Thanks for your attention

I am using Firefox for Android. I normally use ChatGPT in Firefox instead of the Android ChatGPT app.

I found a reproducible issue with chatgpt.com and the Firefox setting “Open links in apps”.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the official ChatGPT Android app. 2. Open Firefox for Android. 3. Go to Settings > Open links in apps. 4. Set it to “Never”. 5. Open https://chatgpt.com.

Actual result: The website connects, but the page content is blank.

6. Change “Open links in apps” to “Ask before opening”. 7. Open https://chatgpt.com again. 8. When Firefox asks whether to open the external ChatGPT app, tap “Cancel”.

Actual result: The ChatGPT website loads normally inside Firefox.

Then I uninstalled the ChatGPT Android app.

After uninstalling the app, Firefox no longer shows the external-app prompt. However, chatgpt.com becomes a blank page again, regardless of whether “Open links in apps” is set to “Never” or “Ask before opening”.

Expected result: If “Open links in apps” is set to “Never”, or if I tap “Cancel” on the external-app prompt, chatgpt.com should load normally in Firefox.

This looks like a Firefox for Android compatibility issue with Android App Links / external app handling for chatgpt.com. It may also involve the website fallback behavior, but the blank page seems to depend on Firefox’s external-link setting.

It seems as if in efforts such as Mozilla Firefox would want to elicit feedback from its community of users. However, it seems as if that is not even an afterthought. Many products make it very easy to offer feedback or recommendations or feature requests. Why is there no such thing that I can see for Firefox? Maybe it's there and I'm missing it! 🙃😁🙂

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?!
