I cannot find the menu item on my mobile device to sync my Firefox account. When I select "menu" it doesn't have that as an option; it only shows me other topics I have used Firefox to search.

I had have an iPad Pro running the latest IOS 26 and Firefox Focus. When I fire it up, if I have my keyboard attached, the cursor appears briefly for a second and then disappears. It’s like the cursor focus leaves the URL area of the browser.

If I disconnect my keyboard, I can click in there and use the on screen keyboard. Once I do that and enter anything [and hit enter], then it will work from that point. So this appears to only affect initial use of the app. I can click up there and type anything after that first submission and it works.

Log in pages won’t load on https://activelife.gladstonego.cloud/ (Gladstone go) using Firefox 154.0 (75837).

It previously affected M&S too but this seems to have been resolved.

I signed in to https://accounts.firefox.com to sync Firefox on iPhone iOS 26 and got a sign in from an unexpected location.

Firefox iOS on iOS 18.7 Toronto, ON, Canada (estimated) Tuesday, Jun 9, 2026 11:43:14 AM (EDT)

I am in the NY,US and do not own any iOS 18.7 device.

Can you give me more information why the jump to a foreign device?

On my iphone google assumes everyone is in the US, even if you add UK to every search. Is there a way to make it search for local answers ? on desktop I have an extension to change it from .com to .co.uk is there anything similar on IOS

Survey prompts every time I open app for first time. Regardless of answer nothing happens. How do I make it go away permanently? I’m fine with taking a survey but it just doesn’t open.

If I click on a YouTube link in another app, say Bluesky or my RSS reader or something, and Safari is my default browser, as soon as it realizes I have a YouTube link it jumps to the YouTube app.

Firefox instead opens the YouTube link in a Firefox tab, and has an “Open in App?” banner along the top.

How can I skip that middle step? This is pretty annoying.

Anyone know what is happening? In the past month or so trying to view websites on iPhone, even on Firefox has become impossible.

The number and size of ads has metastasized to the point they block out all content. Is this a new trend? Is it my settings?

Who is responsible for this shift — the website ad settings or the browsers? Is it Google further breaking the internet?

For the neurodiverse, it’s an accessibility issue as well as a dystopian nightmare.

Please tell me there’s a way to fight this apart from permanent reader mode. This has vastly reduced our use of the internet. Each site feels like a trap and a scam.

The ads cause anxiety as well as irritation and general thwartedness as I cannot reach the content! What are these people/bots thinking?

Thanks

What in the world are you thinking!?!

Firefox fails to obey OS-defined DNS and instead overrides this to use …….Cloudflare? Are you nuts?

Whoever told you Cloudflare is private or secure failed to educate you on Surveillance Capitalism.

For the love of all that is good in this world, rekey Firefox to allow user-defined DNS- whether that is through DHCP, manual config or a management profile.

Is anyone else having problems manually playing videos after selecting Block Audio and Video in order to prevent videos from auto playing? I got sick of videos starting automatically every time I navigated to a web page, so I followed the instructions to disable auto play by selecting Block Audio and Video in the settings. Now, when I try to manually play a video, it fails to start. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue while still preventing videos from autoplaying? BTW, this is occurring on iPad and iPhone rung the latest iOS version.

When using the native translation tool in Firefox for iOS to translate an English page (specifically tested on Wikipedia) into Portuguese, the translation is incomplete and inconsistent.

This behavior mostly occurs inside collapsible sections (the topics that expand and collapse when you tap the arrow icon). The translation failure is not just on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis; it often occurs partially within the same section, where some sentences are successfully translated while others right next to them remain entirely in English.

Ios 18.7.8(22H352) Firefox 152.4(74210)

Steps to reproduce:

   Open Firefox on iOS.

   Navigate to an English Wikipedia article (mobile view, which uses collapsible sections).

   Trigger the built-in Firefox translator to translate the page to Portuguese.

   Expand one of the sections using the dropdown arrow.

Expected result:

The entire text, including all sentences and paragraphs inside the expanded sections, should be fully translated into Portuguese.

Actual result:

A broken, partially translated layout where some sentences/paragraphs are translated, but others immediately below (or within the same block) remain in the original English.

(Note: Please attach your screenshot showing the open section with the arrow and the mix of Portuguese and English text).

The 'Open Private Browsing' shortcut from the app icon has been broken for years. Long-press on the Firefox icon → "New Private Tab" → it opens a normal tab instead.

Once inside the app, it now takes five taps just to start typing in a private tab:

Open Firefox Tap the tabs icon in the bottom-right Tap the mask/private icon at the top Tap the "+" to open a new private tab Tap one last time on the address bar to actually start typing

Address bar autocomplete doesn't work at all — not even for bookmarks or sites you visit often. You have to type the full URL every single time, including dots, hyphens and the extension. This causes constant typing mistakes.

You also can't open any bookmark directly into a private tab.

Private browsing has become so frustrating that it's basically unusable, and this has been going on for years. Private mode is one of Firefox’s most important features. These basic issues really need to be fixed.
