I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

I made the mistake of updating a working version of Firefox for Android and once again I had settings forced upon me. The Settings menu on the bottoms is horrible to navigate and I absolutely do not want nor need it. Apparently now I can't access the secret menu to fix it to the old side view for settings. Is there a way to change this? I'm at the point of frustration.

I have firefox on my Samsung tablet, it began holding onto tabs, looking weird so I uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Now I've lost all of my bookmarks and cannot see a way to get them back.

When browsing on Google Images, any time I swipe from one picture to the next, it is like the image doesn't want to swipe and is actively fighting against me. It is glitchy, bouncing around before I can drag it across my screen.

This is an issue of mobile FireFox, not of my device. Swiping and scrolling on other web browsers, such as Samsung Internet or Google Chrome, is seamless and buttery smooth.

I'm using the latest version of Firefox for Android (149.0.1) on OnePlus Nord (Android 12). I love Firefox and I enjoy having extensions on my phone.

Unfortunately, for some websites (particularly, German news: https://www.zdfheute.de/), Firefox gets stuck loading the website, only showing the empty screen, address bar, and the half-way completed loading bar -- without any progress even after a minute. This happens 50% or more of the times (not 100%), even with ad block turned off.

Opening the same page on Chrome loads instantly.

Dark theme or light theme doesn't switch normally on my phone. In the evening light theme still stays on in the search bar and in the settings menu, white font on white background. Daily fix is to manualy set phone to dark/light theme. This didn't happen when the browser had custon themes. Hope this helps and thank you for your awesome work.

Android phone version 10. I use Firefox browser. A few days ago I cleared cache and Data. Now I have Lost bookmarks, etc. Is there a way for me to restore my Firefox browser? Thanks Danny.

Hi there,

I love that anything I save in my bookmark folders syncs across desktop and the android app. However, whenever I bookmark a page on the android app these days, it always saves it to a specific folder. It used to save it to whichever folder I last bookmarked a page to, but it doesn't do that anymore; it's like it's got stuck and by default now, only saves to a folder that I rarely want to save to. That means that every time I bookmark a page, I have to edit the bookmark and save it to the folder I actually want to save it to.

Now, the way it worked before, if the folder I wanted to save the bookmark to wasn't the last folder I'd saved to, I'd have had to edit the bookmark. But most of the time, I was saving to the same folder as the previous time, so that was fine. But that's not the case now.

So in summary: I have a folder I occasionally save to and that is now the default that Firefox Android saves my bookmarks to. I have another folder (called Books) which I use 90% of the time. So now, I have to edit at least 90% of my bookmarked pages so that they end up in my Books folder, whereas relatively recently, they would have saved there automatically (seeing as Books would likely have been the most recent folder I'd saved a bookmarked page to). So: is there anyway to change the default folder for bookmarks please? Many thanks.

Hello,

I noticed something that feels really inconvenient when working with many open tabs. Right now, when I try to bookmark multiple open tabs, there’s no simple way to select all of them at once. There’s no “Select All” option, so I have to manually pick each tab, which becomes frustrating if I have dozens of tabs open.

It would be very helpful to have a “Select All” checkbox or button when adding open tabs to bookmarks, so users could quickly save everything in one step.

This seems like a small feature, but it would make managing tabs much easier, especially for people who research a lot or keep many tabs open.

Thanks for your work on Firefox.

Web pages keep refreshing when I go to scroll down (ie move towards the bottom of the page). It's gotten worse (more sensitive) since the update. It usually only happens right after a page has finished loading. I'm definitely not pulling down. I like having the pull down to refresh feature but this is happening nearly every time. Thank you

! when i try to save a page as pdf file it doesn't save the pictures inside. i can't save the pictures inside to .jpg files by clicking them and hold. i must open them in another page and save them in "pdf" (very big file) i can't have a look before printing (issue of spooler ?)bold text

I have always blocked embedded videos from playing like in this article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/playing-videos-firefox-android But more and more sites are allowing videos to play. I have also disabled DRM content. I also use U-block
