Firefox fún iOS Community Forum

After the most recent Firefox update for iOS, none of my shortcuts work. They’re all still there - or it looks like they are - but whenever I tap on one of them, I return to the page I was just on - no loading, no changes, no nothing. I am still on iOS 18.6.2, but this wasn’t an issue before the Firefox update.

I upgraded to 143.2 on iOS 26.0.1, but I cannot access any swipe tab gestures, which I assume means I can just swipe left and right in address bar to move between tabs.

I wrongly bookmark a page, but after deleting it it. When i search for the same site it will show under firefox suggest. I think this only happens in mobile (ios) as desktop would forget about the site

this is a problem im seeing all over the internet, but nothing in your database. i just replaced my ipad with the newest ipad air m3 (2025). i have updated the operating system and all apps are updated since i just set it up today. when using firefox, and additional tabs are opened, they will not close by hitting the x to close them. the only way that sorta works is going to tab view and closing them there, but they will not close from the main screen.

how do i fix this? like i said, im seeing alot of posts on the internet complaining about the same thing.

Hi, I am having an issue in mobile on iPhone 13 mini where I am trying to view a PDF (a bill so I can’t share the link) and it just opens to a about:blank page that says:

“Your bill is almost ready. Please wait.

Are you using a Chrome browser? Check your browser’s Downloads folder for a PDF of your bill.”

I wait and nothing happens. When I try in chrome it opens immediately in another tab (and doesn’t go to the downloads folder funny enough).

It isn’t in my downloads folder here either.

I don’t think it’s the site since it works in chrome.

I tried turning off pop up blocker, clicking the link again, and it didn’t change anything.

I also notice it is labeling the blank page as an insecure connection. It is from my city electric company so that wouldn’t be likely.

Thank you

Hiya, The latest firefox update for iOS 26 on mobile added a new feature, or at least a new prompt for an existing feature, with moving the address bar to either the top or the bottom, however this does not appear to apply to the sideways view option, and the address bar is only at the top regardless of which setting is used. Is this a bug?

Also it appears that the auto-hide behaviour takes more scrolling before it engages. Is there a setting to adjust this? If not I would like to request a setting to adjust this on mobile be added as I would prefer it be almost instant in both hide and unhide if possible. Many thanks!

Initial performance is good, but over time especially when tabs are opened and closed frequently responsiveness to user input (e.g. tab switching, opening/closing tabs, response to hyperlinks) becomes very slow. After force quitting and restarting, performance is good again for some time. I exclusively use private tabs.

Is there any way to make the keyboard smaller so I can actually, you know, use the browser? I can't really see what I'm doing. It's like I'm looking through a peephole.
