I-Firefox ye-iOS Community Forum

I used to browse on Firefox on my iPhone, and when I wanted to delve into a tiny page I would send it to my computer's Firefox. That capability seems to have gone away. Is there still a way to do that? I have tried turning Desktop Site on but that doesn't seem to do anything. Help!

IOS on IPad. Every click opens content in a new tab rather then the current tab. If I close the app and reopen I might get a few minutes of normal click behavior where clicking content opens in in the same tab, then it goes back to opening new tabs.

I have already done the below troubleshooting: Open Firefox: on your iOS device. Tap: the three-lines menu button (the "3-bar" menu) on the right side of the address bar. Scroll down: and tap Settings. Tap: Homepage. Under Opening Screen, select Last Tab.

Thanks,

For several years I have been playing competitively a game app on Firefox focus. A week or so ago, it was no longer on Firefox Focus. Even when I enter the name of the game app in Firefox focus, it bounces me back to Google which is loaded with ads.

Just by experimenting I was able to recover the app for a few days and yet it has again disappeared. Why is this happening? What can I do to stop this from happening?

I just noticed that the last time I reported this issue I included two screenshots which are still below. They may not help in anyway, but I decided to include them just so it can be seen but I decided to include them the first time to show what that happened. As I said, somehow I was able to recover it the game back on Firefox focus and yet it is now doing the same thing as shown below. Please help. Firefox focus can’t be beat when it comes to game apps. (I have more than one on there but haven’t played them in a couple years).

Esther a chat help site where someone can guide me on how to remedy this problem? If not, what can I do?

Since a recent update to iOS, my Firefox app no longer shows a "Home" icon at the bottom of the page. As a result, it is extremely difficult to go back to my home page. I've tried every possible way I can think of in Settings to restore the Home icon. This is VERY frustrating and causes a huge waste of time. Does anyone have a solution. If I can't resolve this, I'm going to be forced to switch to Safari.

After the recent "upgrade," the share menu is gone.

A developer response in the App Store comments said it should be in the hamburger menu.

I've attached a screenshot of the entire hamburger menu.

I also cannot find any setting to add to the menu.

Hello Mozilla Support,

I’m experiencing an issue with precise location services while using Mozilla. • My phone’s operating system and all apps are up to date. • Precise location is enabled both in my phone settings and in the Mozilla app. • I’ve already tried restarting my phone and resetting location permissions.

Despite these steps, Mozilla does not seem to detect or use my precise location properly.

Could you please advise me on how to resolve this issue, or let me know if there are any additional troubleshooting steps I should take?

I use Firefox app on my iPhone. It was working perfectly until recently every time I open and you page regardless of what search engine I’m using, I am unable to see any images, I also included a picture of this page so you could see that I am unable to see any buttons to your left side of the page or even an image. I only see a faint rectangle on top of the page. I’m guessing that it should be an image..

Looking for JavaScript enabled for chrome I don’t have JavaScript enabled on my iPhone Pro 16 Max I can’t open my email or register it nor can I open chrome normally can you help me with this?

Hi,

I am pretty mad at the iOS team since the latest release came out. I use Firefox for iOS for a long time now and the latest version has the most annoying bug I have ever encountered on a browser: it erases all of my cookies. FF 142.0.1 on iOS 18 first did this last Friday, when the loading of a web page was slowed down because of a network issue. When it resumed, my connexion to the website’s session was lost because the cookie was gone too. But it not only erased this website’s cookie, it erased ALL of the cookies contained in FF. Which is fucking annoying. And it did it again ten minutes ago, without any reason. I would also like to mention that the browsing is quite slow and the app tends to freeze way faster than before. It’s not the first time FF upsets me because of bugs, but such a mismanagement of something as fundamental as a cookie is not acceptable and I would very much like this bug to get fixed quite promptly. Thank you for your attention.

Hi all.

I suppose this applies as much to Firefox on the desktop as it does to iOS, really.

I'm having real trouble with passwords, now that I've moved over from Safari to Firefox & Apple have seen fit to create a standalone Passwords app. (Life was so much simpler before they did that!)

I have the extension installed, but I'm getting mis-matches between the two (or three if you count the phone, meaning: Passwords App, Firefox Desktop & Firefox iOS).

I suppose the way it should work in my head is that when Firefox asks me if I want to save a password, it should save it to the passwords app (although I have no problem if it saves the password into the Firefox preferences too) & when I go to log in somewhere, it should call the password from the passwords app, but it doesn't seem to be doing that, I'm just getting multiple versions of log-ins everywhere.

I just had to reset my Instagram log-in. Firefox generated the password & it's now saved in the Firefox passwords list but it hasn't appeared in the Passwords app.

Shouldn't the extension be keeping them synchronised?

Recently transferred from Chrome. My understanding was Firefox private browsing was supposed to work similarly to chrome incognito mode; once you close the browser, all local files are deleted and cookies are cleared.

However, with Firefox it maintains my logins. If I log into an account while private browsing and the close the browser, I’ll still be logged in next time I go to the website even if it’s days later (and I have never logged into this account in a non-private browsing window!)

I never had this issue using chrome incognito, so it seems to be a Firefox problem.

Is this just not something Firefox supports? Is there any way to prevent storage of cookies and private data?

The “help” button on Firefox iOS takes me here. I’ve tried posting on here, and on the iOS forum and my posts keep getting closed or taken down with no help.

My current post on the iOS forum is showing a message saying a moderator needs to manually approve it.

Is there a way to get bug support for Firefox for iOS? my wife and I have been struggling with a ton of bugs ever since we switched from Chrome

Firefox won’t load any links from Gmail or articles. When I hit a link, it opens a page with the URL ‘ https://go.skimresources.com/‘ and says ‘a server with the specified hostname could not be found’. This has happened with multiple links from multiple pages. My WiFi is fine and it’s also happened on data and I don’t see any available app updates. I’ve also tried deleting and reinstalling it.
