I have been using ff on Android for years. Now maybe one year i have not been able to find my downloads ANYWHERE on the phone. Downloads also seems to take for ages to complete. And when it completes it may be i can open it once by clickin the notification its ready, but after that it dissapears.

I have read some people have been having this issue for years also. I think its something what ff wont fix. Do i need to change the the browser just for this idiotic reason?

Hi Tony

You should find your downloaded files in the downloads folder on your devices storage.

Hello, Are you unable to open the downloaded file or are you unable to find the downloaded files? If you are unable to find the files, they might not be downloaded so far.

Hi

If you open the Files app on your Android device, select the three line icon in the top left and select Downloads, you will be able to see your downloaded files.
