I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

For at least 25 years Mozzilla/Firefox have saved my passwords. Tow days ago the column of passwords I am unable to open. What is problem and how to repair? I am 82years and under medical care and need my passwords of which many will never used anymore.

I noticed the UI changed for Firefox for Android and part of that change is there's a slight delay/transition when opening menus or navigating between settings.

May I ask for a toggle that disables the transition so menus open immediately, like the Extensions and More dropdowns do? It would feel intuitive for it to be in the Customize options.

Right now I'm on FFfA 148.0 (Build #2016144279), not sure which version I was on before. It's not the biggest issue but does add a bit of friction to the user experience, I've got muscle memory for being able to refresh faster than I can now.

The new UI's been great otherwise!

Ever since the new update I can't save to any of the bookmark folders on my phone anymore. When I click on bookmark now all I get is the options to save in the bookmark menu, the toolbar, other bookmarks or create a new folder. But all the other bookmark folders that I have I can no longer save to them it no longer gives me the options.

When I open up my bookmark menu I can still access them and all the old bookmarks that were saved within them, but when I try to save to them it won't give me the option at all and I was just wondering if there was any way to fix it?

Most times when I go to a new page via a link, I go to scroll down on the new page but the page refreshes with the circle up top instead. I have to cancel the refresh with scrolling upward to cancel the refresh before scrolling down to view the content. Its a very annoying bug and I bet alot of users are having the same issue too.

Thanks

A notification dot in the UI has been added for Firefox android which is visible from the main screen and does not respect notification settings.

The settings to disable notifications and disallow notification dots does not prevent the notification dot on the settings buttons.

An example screenshot can be found on Reddit.

I love the browser and use it daily with Android phone and Linux laptop.

Concerning the new Android version, it is great. But please, bring back the select all tabs function. I like to save and backup my tabs by sharing them externally, and selecting them one by one is a very slow process.

Appreciate!

For laptop and mobile, All open tabs between all synced devices, are all just in a list right when you click on or press on Firefox.. also, just have all the devices current history listed under that..and, AND... Can I take it one step farther and have them listed on all the New tabs when I click the new tab cross? Basically making "Firefox View" the homepage for all devices, I was gonna just create a shortcut webut when I click on "FV" no link comes up... Also possibly a "copy and paste clipboard" option across devices. Thanks in advance for any time this could save me and others in the future... also, This question seems logical that's it's may been asked a hundred dozen times before already, but I did search my summary

The android version of firefox has a problem the displays a bar asking to download an open pdf whether the pdf is already downloaded or not. There's no option to turn off this bar that ends up blocking a lot of screen space. Maybe I'm missing something. Thanks for looking into this.

Hello, I changed the app icon and now I have two 2 Firefox icons (default + retro 2024) and there's no way to remove either except by uninstall, I tried other icons and the same issue persists... As far as I know when an app has the option it's the original app icon that changes instead of creating another one so, is this intended or a bug? I'm on A11 if that helps.

When I am using the android Firefox browser to watch YouTube, it is fine when browsing and finding a video. I will click on a video just fine, and start watching it no problem. The issue occurs when I switch tabs or switch apps to do something else and return later. Once I return to the YouTube tab even if the video is not or was never in full screen, Firefox will then be forced into landscape orientation. This persists between tabs until I either restart the app or do a Google search.

I found a potential solution in these forums. In about:config there should be a setting called media.videocontrols.lock-video-orientation. I tried this, but there is no such setting there for me. I'm at a loss for what to do now.

Hello, And sorry for my bad English. I use Firefox for more than 20 years on my computer and for years on my smartphone. But since few months, there's a "bug" on Android: When I launch Firefox or launch again after be back to another app, the page is black screen and need few seconds (15-20-30s) before load. And, sometime, the page reload with the same time but delete all information that I've enter before, that is very problematic wheel there's a formular in the page. It's really unuseful and very annoying. Have you a solution for that? Thank in advance for your help. Have a good day :) PS: it's very annoying because all the time we ask you a question or problem, you said it's not you or or another service of your company... I'm really a fan of Firefox, Thunderbird and donator to mozilla company ; but, really, it's annoying that you ignore the problem and bug of your app, and finally don't solve it because you ignore them...

My android phone just recently updated my firefox version to 148 (this happened today, February 27, 2026).

Since this happened, I can no longer properly manage my bookmarks. Let me describe in more detail:

I have multiple sub-folders that I use to organize my bookmarks by topic. Previously, when I edited a bookmark, I could move it into one of these sub-folders by navigating to the sub folder on the bookmark editing page. Normal, expected behavior.

• Now* when I try to edit a bookmark, only the top-level "Bookmarks" folder is visible; if I try to expand that folder with the > carat icon, nothing happens. I only have the option to make *new* subfolders, not to navigate to subfolders that already exist.

To be clear: - I can find all my previously existing bookmark subfolders when I want to *open* a bookmark. - The problem is only when I want to *move* a bookmark into one of these existing subfolders. - When I edit a bookmark, I see the > carat icon that normally would expand the Bookmarks top-level folder, but that icon does not function. Therefore I cannot actually select any of my existing folders to move the bookmark into.

Can this function be restored to the normal behavior a.s.a.p.?

I'm attaching two screenshots to show that I have subfolders, but that I cannot access them when I edit a bookmark (pressing the expand button does nothing)

Thank you.

I have a suggestion and a problem. First, regarding the problem, I use a tablet with a mouse and cannot scroll through tabs using the mouse scroll wheel or tap with the mouse. Second, I have a suggestion regarding the top bar, which I think should be resizable, because on my tablet with a landscape layout, the top bar takes up too much space, especially now that there are browser tabs at the top.
