Android browser, location not working, exhausted various app and phone settings, it's stuck in NY city. Google Chrome has accurate location data. Editing about:config didn't work, applying a set of instructions from about 7 months ago. Extension Location Guard seems to have allowed me to fix a location, and has become a temporary fix. Wondering if it's the phone or browser, although other apps using location seem to work.

I use a TTS extention pretty much daily while I do other things so either I have it running in the background while I'm elsewhere on my phone or just away from my phone and it'll turn off the screen. Unless my phone is on charge it force closes the extention after about 3 minutes or so of being out of FF. The app and extention are both optimized so I'm not sure what else there is to do from my end.

Hi Bookmarking over the last 3-4 updates have changed a lot. Adding a bookmark these days now by default ends up n the folder I last visited ... even visited on my PC (bookmarks are shared via my Firefox account). I therefore have to edit the location every time I'm adding a new bookmark, a tiresome and not needed not wanted process. I liked the old default on the Android version so much better. It had its own folder (when viewing bookmarks on my PC), and was clearly separated by mobile (I using two mobiles). Had hoped there was an optional default to modify, but if there is I cant find it. I'm I missing something. Cheers Bjarne

I read the newspaper on 2 tablets and phone. All are Samsung. The phone is latest s25 and tablets S5e. All the apps are up to date along with the operating systems. Picking a story to read and scrolling through it I eventually go 'back' to main page front. On Firefox this doesn't happen. The button action takes 4-6 presses, then back to main page. This occurs on all 3 devices. I tried other news websites (ABC, CBS) to replicate problem, but *did not* have this issue. Not a big deal but I think you should know.

I have a ton of java malware and DNS redirects on my device and it Im trying to remove it but it seems like the abuser is still has some type of device admin still. What's my best options if I really need my device (android) to function for just a while longer sothat I can replace all of the other bricked and malfunctioning equipment that got wave linked with it? I'm not even totally sure the abuser has gone on because some of the software is still not working properly and some has even changed from the developers intended use. Im frustrated can someone give me advie

Die Synchronisation der Firefox Android App funktioniert nicht mehr zuverlässig. Teilweise tagelange Unterbrechungen, obwohl Einstellungen und Verbindung korrekt sind. Abhilfe schafft nur Neuinstallation und/oder Trennung und Neuanmeldung im Account.

Hello. It's a known issue already, but i will share it once again.

When i switch to a different app and then come back to Firefox, the tabs always reload and any process or pending task is lost.

That's a huge problem because it's impossible to copy and paste codes from an authenticator, fill any text to a form or simply continue watching a paused video. The tab simply reload and you lose everything.

It's very annoying because it doesn't happen to any other browser. I'm a longterm user of Firefox for many years, but this is my only complain.

Dear developers, please do something to fix this issue.

Thank you !

Hi there,

I wrote a review for the Android version of Firefox after which I was re-directed to report the issue here. So for the last couple of months, I started to notice that Firefox (Android) lags/stutters severely when browsing through youtube, not watching videos, just scrolling through the video feed. Even after the page has loaded with all the videos, scrolling lags/stutters significantly, and it only happens when browsing youtube, haven't had this issue with any other site on Android using Firefox. I'm not using any extensions on Firefox in case that would impact it somehow.

I've updated and also re-installed Firefox on my android phone in the hopes that it may fix the problem, but unfortunately it didn't.

That said, I do use Firefox on my desktop, with plenty of extensions installed, and haven't run into this same issue with youtube.

Android OS version: 7.1.1 Mobile: SM-J250F (Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Pro) Firefox version: Latest

Video preview of the lag/stuttering can be seen at the link below: https://youtu.be/zXBNmeC5IQY

Kind Regards

Hi

I'm wondering why you ignored Arabic language among other languages in your App. for translation from any other language especially English TO Arabic language

the users of your Browser Are so many users in Arab countries and Abroad

pls. consider adding ARABIC LANGUAGE

Firstly I've been a Firefox on android user forever & thanks so much for a fab browser all round. Even if it runs slower, for some reason at times than say Chrome on this phone. Please. Hoping there a setting to disable the below total annoyance, not convenience, for just a few of us it seems from my weeks & weeks of looking up. I'm truly amazed most are fine with it & I'm here finally as fed up with searching the web for already answered

So. I do not want, need nor appreciate the new, "convenience", of when I want to add a new bookmark to a folder, now comes with the little pop-up that shows it will be saved to the last folder a bookmark was saved to.

Sure there's an edit function to click to manually choose the folder from the big drop down bookmarks menu. But. If you're not fast enough, like less than 2 secs, it will auto save to the folder u don't want it in.

Then u easily forget what folder that your new bookmark went to. Again, sure you can immediately go to the filled star on the page site, click that, muck around with editing so it lands in the correct folder.... Or other muck arounds.

But this is all just more clicks, supposed to be saving my time? Perhaps it's great for those in a work situ or with 100s of folders Idk.

I did manage to muck around with "Homepage" settings a some weeks ago to somehow disable that autosave or edit popup, to regain the more simple option of choosing my own folder when hitting the add new bookmark star.

Seemed to work for a while. But then after exiting the browser app on my phone, just one random day open Firefox & it defaulted back to this auto save popup. And although as I said I managed to fix it in settings for homepage, I just can't get it right now or no longer an option. Tired but not stupid old brain ha.

The oddest thing is although I manually update Firefox consistent & regularly, the last 2? versions i slacked off. Now this issue began way after the update of the current version I'm using!

If, & I'm hoping it will be a fix, just getting the latest version gives me the option or fix great. Currently on v133.1 i think. Otherwise, disappointed but will likely stick with Firefox still. Thanks kindly for the help or anything if any, anyone.

250125 My comment to Mozilla Firefox browser

In the 2010s, before bigtech algorythms shadowbanned me to dust (online and offline) firefox was great. But after google's spooks (my half-sister but 1) and Silicon Valley algorythms, left to using Samsung phones and the (Google) android OS, using other than their chrome browser is impossible. Which says that such systems, device brands and forprofit bigtech corps are operating illegally, so need to have all their patents, rights, "permissions" and even rights to profit, revoked.

In my opinion....
