Before the update that just dropped, whenever I would open the app, it would open in private browsing by default. After the update it opens a regular non private tab. Any way to fix this?

I launched Firefox the usual way with a private browsing shortcut today and it opened a regular, non-private window. I checked the settings to select again "Add private browsing shortcut" and went in the app drawer to make sure I was tapping the right one. Still, a regular, non-private window. Rebooting the phone did nothing. App is in the latest release version.

Opening a private window is still possible by tapping the mask icon in the initial non-private window or by long pressing the shortcut and choosing New private tab, but that in no way replaces actually launching the browser in private mode as default like the app itself promises and used to do. According to Reddit, I'm not the only one experiencing this.

How software gets updates with such a glaring flaw is beyond me and I can't decide whether it is worse if this is an accident or intentional.

Getting a weird issue. When I open Firefox Beta, if it is not already running it loses focus on Firefox and pops open the Google Play Store over the top of Firefox on its Firefox Beta page. It's doing this consistently and repeatably. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy A52 5G on the latest update of Android 14.

Hi, I dont understand the new improvements since the default tab is no longer private and i cannot follow the google tips, as I miss thr history options. My version is

141.0 (Build #2016102631), null

GV: 141.0-20250714153642 AS: 141.0 OS: Android 13

On the latest Firefox Nightly builds (I use Nightly for extensions), holding the back button in the Android navigation bar no longer brings up previous pages, like it does when holding the back button in the three dot menu. Is there a config option to bring this back?

Im trying to syc my dsta with anew desktop computor. It tellsme on my mobile device in Firefox go to menu and shows the 3 bars. I dont see that in Firefox mobile. I see three dots but there is no place in there that says syc and save data

I am using Android 14 and Firefox for Android version 134.0.1 (Build #2016067655).

How do I edit PDF files in the Firefox Android app? I chose the Settings category at random when I entered this post because I couldn't find one that was applicable to the question.

I did a lot of searching in the Firefox Android Community and Firefox Android Support areas, as well as Internet searches but I couldn't find anything that was specific to Android.

Thanks!

I have firefox on a Windows 10 laptop plus two android phones and two android tablets. The Bookmarks on the laptop, both tablets and one phone are shown in alphabetic order. The Bookmarks on one phone are in random order. How can I make these Bookmarks list in alphabetic order? I have read that I cannot simply reorder the bookmarks, so I probably need to delete the bookmarks, ON THIS PHONE ONLY and definitely not on my other devices. Then would "Sync” import the Bookmarks from "the cloud"? Or would "Sync" export the now-empty "Bookmarks" folder from this phone to the cloud?

because a hacker hacked my Gmail account.he changed my password and phone number.he also set-up his own recovery email.and I don't have my account.he also set-up 8-digit backup code.thisi my first account.I want this account.Gmail address is: [email address].and last password is:[password].Now what can I do?

I have updated to the latest Firefox version for the Android app, using Samsung Galaxy S20. When viewing YouTube in mobile view (desktop view works though) through the browser, the comment section seem to be invisible and not showing. I have tried fresh reinstalling, and toggled all the settings, but I can't seem to get it to work on Firefox. Other browsers like chrome works just fine. Is this a bug?

Prior to the 6/16/25 release, hitting the back button on the three button control on a page with no previous pages would open the home page without closing the current tab. After the update, it closes the tab before opening the home page. This was useful for quickly opening multiple tabs, as well as preventing accidentaly closing a tab. Please revert this change, or make it a setting.

How do I get the YouTube homepage to load more recommended content like it usually does?

Right now when I access the homepage a small portion of recommended content is loaded followed by a loading icon that doesn't seem to load anything.

I am at a loss as to why this started to happen only a few weeks ago after a years of working fine, and why it should happen at all:

given a link to an HTML file where the headers include content-disposition set to attachment and the server (NextCloud30) mistakenly setting content-type to text/plain, what downloads is not the HTML file, but a text rendering of that HTML file, which is, of course, completely useless to the purpose and makes no sense whatsoever that it should happen. Why would anyone download a file and expect to the be interpreted?

But more to the point, how do I stop this behaviour. The above link, on my home cloud so be gentle, will work just fine on Firefox/Linux, but on Firefox/Android it will download as a 7k rendering of the file, renamed with the txt extension. The link itself is just a few holiday classics in the iRealPro format, which is, sadly, and HTML file. Up until two weeks ago, I would post a link in our band group chat, band members would click the link, be asked if they should launch iReal, and then iReal would ask if they would like to import this playlist.

what happens now is I post the NextCloud public link, they click and get a landing page that correctly describes the file as 20k HTML and has that previous link as the Download button. Clicking that gets you 7k of useless text.

I can't say for certain that this is a few 'feature' of a recent Firefox update or something that was changed in a minor update to Nextcloud. I believe it may also happen on Safari, but I haven't confirmed that, all I know is the link does not work on mobile for most users.

Here are the headers that curl reports, although I don't think Nextcloud gives me any option to change these:

I am using Firefox nightly on Android. About two weeks ago I noticed that my toolbar got moved to the bottom after some update, while address bar is still at the top. I tried looking for it in settings but couldn't find anything about toolbar, that's weird since I was able to customize it a few years ago when I installed Firefox for the first time. So I looked it up on the internet and they say that it's in Settings/Customize/Toolbar, but in my browser settings instead of Toolbar there is Address bar settings. Has toolbar's settings been moved somewhere else? It looks like in previous versions it was under Customize section.
