Firefox fún Android Community Forum

The tab "Collections" on mobile Android are way too sensitive to closing tabs that can never be recovered, since there's no history for closed tabs that aren't open from the collections. I will be scrolling through them like normal and it will be so sensitive it will think I swiped left on a tab and it'll just close tabs at random, never to be seen again!! I wish this was not a feature. I need it to be way less sensitive, so that only a very intentional swipe left AND hitting the X closes the tab. I've lost so many tabs and I can't remember what they even were because it happens so fast!!

Hello Firefox community! today I got issue that could be bug, when I switch to other tab, search something, and get back to first tab, tab refreshes, like for no reason. (yeah i was doing something and all progress lost😭) Soo is it website issue or browser issue?

Firefox on Android still partially has tab groups enabled when you turn off the setting under Tabs -> Tab Grouping. The setting removes the header element in the tab view, but if you drag and move a tab to rearrange, it still shows the nesting animation over another tab and if you drop the tab it still shows the grouping UI. I don't want tab groups turned on. Is there a way to make sure this bug is resolved/seen?

I have multiple (20-100) tabs open. I choose for example 40 tabs and send them to my Firefox desktop.

Sometime ago there was a option to close those 40 tabs after the sending. Now you can't close multiple tabs in anyway. You can close one tab at a time, or all tabs.

What's the reason for this?

So whenever I close and reopen firefox nightly, it created a new tab even tho i switched the function in settings to open the last tab on re-entering, this happens everytime and it's kinda annoying.

I use both Firefox on PC and Android. I have never noticed such strange behavior on PC. When closing FF, even after PC restart, FF always opens the same pages and tabs I left it. On Android, after minimizing and retuning, I see a summary page instead of the page I am reading. In settings the selected option is : Open the last tab.

I really like using Firefox across all my devices. The only thing ruining my experience is the huge and useless bar on top of the tabs bar when enabling Dex mode on my Samsung tablet! That and the inability to get two or more tabs side by side. This feature is already standard on all the other mainstream browsers. Please add this soon. Thanks

I followed the instructions in the article. Creating tab groups is impossible. Dragging and dropping just rearranges the order. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups-firefox-android

155.0.1 (Build #2016182535), 5fdfd0092780e85643e2cddc0e1b590c8b9ef860 GV: 155.0.1-20260903215306 AS: 155.0 OS: Android 15

The Mozilla browser is experiencing issues with restoring tabs notifications every time you open some websites. This occurs in Mozilla V155.0. Please fix this issue.

When i downloaded the app, it automatically came with the ability to group tabs, but after i customized several settings it took all of my tabs out of the groups and i can't group them anymore. The settings i changed ranged from privacy to personalization, i tried to reverse some of them to see if that would help and did a bunch of back and forth, but it's still not coming back. (Im trying to leave chrome because i noticed it had some very concerning lack of privacy settings that messed with my phone's ability to function properly if i turned them off. And Edge is worse.) Firefox seems better, but without the group tabs option it makes it waaaay too ridiculous to try and do any real work with it. I do a lot of multitasking and research and need to be able to bounce around and organize stuff. Your help stuff on tab groups doesnt say anything about how to turn it on or off. So... how do i get it back?

We’re on some website called xyz and there are links to articles there. If, on Android, we hover over a link and select ‘Open in a new tab’, we’ll get something like this: third open link, second open link, first open link However, on a PC, if we do the same thing, we’ll end up with first link, second link, third link According to what I’ve found online, this is controlled by the `browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent` setting in `about:config`. Only the Firefox app from Google Play has `about:config` disabled. So how do you change this?

Hey I was wondering if there's a way to activate split view on android? I found one extension but it says its not monitored by firefox and it wants some permissions that I'm iffy about given the warning. I'm hoping there's a native way like on desktop and I just cant figure it out. Appreciate any assistance. Thanks

Firefox is a great browser. Please add "Open in New Tab Group" to the long-press menu and floating tab bubbles for quicker tab switching. These features would make multitasking and tab management much more convenient on Android.

When I woke up to an update saying tab groups were now on android I was thrilled. ... And then I couldn't use them.

I have confirmed, to the best of my ability, that I am on the correct version, version 153.0, in the firefox settings. I have read the article about creating them back to front. I turned my phone on and off again, cleared the cache, etc etc... As far as I can reasonably tell, it should work, and it just doesn't.

I've been trying to move off from Chrome to FireFox (FF) since FF is superior in many ways but it's been very hard since FF doesn't have the sub-tab groupings like Chrome does to help with organizing my open tabs.

It's easier for me to move from Chrome to Edge browser instead of FF.

Can Mozilla FF add this "sub-tab groupings" feature please ASAP to help me and millions others move on from all Chromium based browsers?

Thank you!

I cannot group tabs on Firefox android (mobile). I am on version 152.0.4. Whenever I try to group tabs by hovering one tab over another, it just shifts the other tab away. Theres also no selection for making a group when I press select tabs. I tries everything; from going to chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml (there was no setting for browser.tabs.groups.enabled) to going into secret settings and pressing control for tab groups android rollout. (I asked AI for help and followed close to all of its steps) Please help!
