This isnt about tabs, but only thing close to my problem in drop down.

My problem is the google calender headings at the top of the calender are now unreadable when I use Firefox browser. It happened after last update. The letters are now cramed in and on top of each other for buttons such as month forward or back or even titile of month.

Any suggestions or knowledge is great.

recently i noticed that focus no longer asks before opening a link in another app (e.g. a youtube link in the youtube app). i know that you can open it in focus by long pressing on the link and clicking open link rather than open in default browser (which is set in settings to be firefox focus, but still opens it in the relevant app), but it's a hassle to do every time. is there a way to re-enable asking before opening an app, or at the very least opening it in focus by default?

When I tap on a YouTube link, or Reddit, or Amazon etc, FireFox Focus opens it in the native app. This completely undermines the entire purpose of app. I use it when I don’t want to access something while signed in. It’s crazy that a “Privacy Browser” happily gives my searches over to the companies I’m trying to avoid.

This seems to be new behavior in a recent update… it used to occasionally ask me if I wanted to open the app but now it’s just automatic.

If I long press a link and tap “open link” it usually stays inside FireFox Focus… but it’s inconvenient, hard to remember, and I never know what is going to trigger the external apps.

Can we please at least give the option to disable this??

I Need To Be Able To Stream Audio When The Screen Is Locked, for example, I regularly use this link http://emeraldsdr.ddns.net:8073/

If you click play when it loads you should hear Audio, it's an online SDR radio, it's for tuning into LW/MW and Shortwave radio and for Amateur Radio use, every time the screen locks the audio stops, this is extremely frustrating, it happens on my Iphone and also Ipad Air 2022.

It works perfectly well on my Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro with current version of Firefox and it also works on my first gen Ipad Air on Ios 12.x.x with old version of Firefox.

Hello - i am hoping someone can help, as I am a novice and at all this and have come to a bit of a dead end….

I have been building my website on wordpress in Elementor, on Firefox using my iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard. It was all going really well until yesterday and suddenly the ‘right click’ on the edit button doesn’t seem to work any more. Usually a dropdown menu appears so that i can edit the blocks in my website, but now the menu flashes up for a fraction of a second and vanishes.

I have troubleshooted this in Chrome and the right click works in Chrome, so it does seem to be a Firefox issue. I don’t want to have to continue to work in Chrome because it’s actually very clunky, usually Firefox works much better.

I have tried clearing the cache/browser history in Firefox and it is still not working.

So now I am at a loss. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get this functionality working again in Firefox. I have made a screen recording of the issue if that helps at all. I will be eternally grateful if anyone is able to help me with this!

This also happens on my other devices on certain websites. I recorded a screencast video to demonstrate it (you have to View in full screen mode because youtube automatically made it into a short that cuts off the bottom part of the video:

When I replicate this with the same website in Chrome browser on my phone, it does not do this, it stays open in Chrome. it only happens in Firefox android browser

thanks

When I long-press one of the articles under the Thought-Provoking Stories section on the Firefox Homepage and then select Share, the Share menu opens but then closes soon after, before I am able to use it.

This is using a fresh install of Firefox 109.0 (25841) on iPadOS 16.3 on iPad (9th generation).

I took a screen recording of this happening and uploaded it here: https://imgur.com/a/AEBGbSd

In Firefox settings, I DO have "Open links in apps" enabled, because I do want most sites to do this. However, there are some specific sites that I DON'T want to open in app. For most of these (e.g. Aurora Store), it is sufficient to open the App Info (in Android system Settings) and disable "Open supported links" (and also tap the "clear default preferences" button, if it's there). For those apps where I've disabled supported links, webpages will load normally in the browser, and there won't even be an "Open in app" option from the 3-dot dropdown menu for the website.

The problem is, some apps that have supported links disabled will still be opened when a link to their website is tapped in browser. One example of this is Tumblr. Tapping a link to any tumblr.com site will launch the Tumblr app instead (which is a particular problem because the Tumblr app currently has a bug where it cannot open links to specific pages, so it navigates to the homepage instead, which is useless. For this reason, it's imperative that Tumblr links open only in browser, at least until Tumblr fixes their bugs.)

Is there anything that I'm missing that will definitely prevent FF from launching an app, when that app is set to NOT open supported links? Is this a FF mobile bug that I should file on Bugzilla? Are there any workarounds (perhaps like a 3rd-party app that intercepts the intent to open Tumblr and redirects it back to the browser)?

Hey. I hope no one asked this question before because I could not find it. I am trying to build a website, that contains a header, a main-part, and a footer. All of them together should make up 100% of the screen size. The height of the header and footer are fixed to 100px each, so the main part must be adjustable. On desktop this is easy accomplishable in CSS trough: height: calc(100vh – 200px). On mobile however, 100vh does not include the URL bar. Therefore, I used JavaScript. Basically, I am checking if the device used is a mobile one. If so, I use window.innerheight and subtract 200px from it. That fixes the issue, at least on some mobile browsers. And here is where the fun begins:

On Brave-Android it works as expected. On Firefox-Android however, it does not work at all. There are two white stripes on the site. One under the iframe that holds the header and the other at the very bottom of the site.

I have added two screenshots to this question. One screenshot shows how it is supposed to look, the other one shows the problem I am facing.

If you want to check out the code, I did upload everything to GitHub. The site itself is in German, but all the variable are in English.

On Firefox 109.1.1 (Build #2015927171), on every website I've visited, when I enter full screen, the Android Navigation Bar hides, as I would expect. But when I leave full screen, the Navigation Bar stays hidden, as if I'm still in full screen, requiring me to swipe up to show it. The app will continue this behavior across multiple tabs and on every website, until the app is force-closed and cache cleared.

Using Firefox 109.1.1 (Build #2015927171) on a Samsung Galaxy S22 Running Android 13 with One UI 5.0. No other browser or app shows this behavior. Attached screenshot shows Nav Bar hidden.

When I am using the browser I can’t really see the time or like the wifi and I was just wondering how I can fix that problem or if it’s just like that, like I can see that it’s there but it blends in with the screen

When switching to an open tab, the keyboard pops up for no reason. I found this issue in this forum but the response was a really lame "must be an Apple problem." It's not.

As the title says, the navigation bar (the one with the back, forward, trash and hamburger menu button) in Firefox Focus (I’m on iOS 16.1.1, iPhone XS) sometimes covers a part of the view, which is most noticeable when getting these cookie notifications at the bottom of websites. From my testing, it happens when entering the website from a link, and not when entering the URL directly into the address bar, and it fixes itself if you manage to scroll a little.

I am using the latest build of Android on a Pixel 7 phone. My Firefox is up to date per the Google Play store.

When I first started using Firefox for Android, I really liked that it would continue playing my audio without and user interaction. I turn my Bluetooth devices on, and it continued to play audio in Bluetooth device. When I turned it off, it then continued to play on my phone.

Maybe a couple of months ago, I noticed that it would pause my audio when I disconnected my Bluetooth device. So I would then have to open Firefox to resume playback to play on my phone. There were no issues at the time when connecting to a BT device. It would seamlessly play from phone to BT device without me interacting with my device.

Now maybe a couple of weeks ago, audio will now pause in BOTH cases when connecting and disconnecting to / from a BT device. I have to open the browser to start playback again in all cases now.

Is there a way to force it to keep playing when I am connecting or disconnecting from a BT device? Unsure if this is a bug or a setting that I am missing.

Since today, tapping and holding a link would use the same preview method as Safari, where it would show you a preview box that could show either a preview of the website or just the URL, switched by tapping the top right of the box. Now it uses its own preview mechanism and there is no option to show only the URL and nothing else. Could you please add such an option on the box? Thank you in advance.

I'm wondering what the display is when I'm informed that leaving to use certain apps on my pixel 6 Means that my information is not private and a display popped up I will send screenshots

I am moving to a new phone. On my old phone, Firefox can browse to links on twitter.com without opening them in the native app. This is what I want. I have been unable to get the same to happen on the new phone.

As far as I can tell the versions are the same, and I've been through the settings. Both phones are set to not open links in native apps. I have disabled "open by default" for Twitter on the new phone, even though it is not disabled on the old phone.

How can I prevent Firefox from launching the Twitter app?
