Hi. I have some feature requests for Firefox for Android.

- pos of the address bar when typing: The feature to change the position of address bar is useful. But other search bars and the suggestions are still on the top. While putting the address bar makes it easy to access, it confuses my eye movements. I think there should be an option to change the address bar when typing. - shortcuts: I'm using a Samsung Galaxy phone and they have a feature to set some shortcuts like forward and search in app to an action. On this point, Firefox is inferior than Chrome for me. Chrome supports these shortcuts.

Recently starting having the issue where some whites and the tab icons appear washed out and even glitched out and pink when using my PC. I haven't made any significant changes to my system as far as I recall.

Colours in other browsers and applications are effected. Going to the same webpage on both Brave and Edge shows the whites correctly. On all the games on my PC there are no glitches in colours.

I have tried a few fixes already: -Removing and re-downloading GPU drivers - Fixes the issue temporarily. After about 1 day the issue comes back. -Re-seating the GPU - No fix. -Turning off colour override in Firefox - No fix. -Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox - No fix.

If anyone has an idea or knows the setting that may be causing this problem I would really appreciate it.

iCloud has stopped signing in on the Firefox browser for Windows. I contacted Apple Support and they told me that this is an issue on Firefox's part, and told me to try signing in the next morning and they guarantee it'll work. It did not. In fact, it has been over a week, and it still does not work.

When I enter my Apple ID and Password, the website gives me an error "Failed to verify your identity. Try again." The website does NOT send me to the 2fa screen, yet it still sends a 2fa code to my iPad nonetheless.

As Apple has said this is an issue on Firefox's part, I am posting this here. Attached is a screenshot of the error.

When I type in the search bar, for example, 3+3 (also tried 3 + 3), when I enter, it will give me this "3 3" and will just show results instead of the calculator.

It, however, still work normally if I were to write "3 plus 3"

I get a different UI when I open NotebookLM from google. My pixel tablet uses Chrome and it loads with the standard 3 panels but in Firefox I only get one screen. Everything else works in the program.

I am trying to access certain HTTPS websites and some of them show PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR in Firefox. This error is not present in Edge or Chromium.

Here's what I've tried (none of these works):

• DNS over HTTPS turned off
• Uninstall all add-ons
• Reinstall Firefox
• Create new profile and set it as default
• Delete/rename certs.db in the Firefox profiles folder.

The only fix that works is to use Troubleshoot Mode every time I visit these websites which is not practical. Any ideas on what could be the problem?

I don't know if this is relevant but one of the websites that does not work is https://alexan.com.ph/

I have two computers. Both sign into the same Firefox account. Both instances of Firefox are the same version (134.0.1 64-bit).

On my main computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the first image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-42-57.png)

On the other computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the second image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-43-57.png)

How to I get both instances of Firefox to do the same thing when creating a new tab, i.e. organize the recommendations like the second image?

Firefox is no longer saving all my history. OR, I can't find it. I can't find it because: HISTORY/SHOW ALL HISTORY is now only showing "today". This occurred with v133, but I do not know if it occurred with any given update. I updated to 134.0.1. That did not fix problem. I have not tried regressing.

In the past, I was able to save YEARS of history (although I sometimes created a new profile to restart the history file due to its size).

1. I was using the "DYNAMIC HISTORY" addon, which worked fine for years. When I found Firefox was showing only the current days' history, I disabled that addon. Didn't fix anything.

2. "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option IS NOT SELECTED. NEVER HAS BEEN

3. OTHER SETTINGS: no - Always use private browsing mode yes - Remember browsing and download history yes - Remember search and form history NO - Clear history when Firefox closes

any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I am also baffled: googling this problem comes up empty handed.

I am a Cacti developer and we are considering switching from FontAwesome Web Fonts to Tabler Web Fonts. However, on Firefox for Windows only, we are having a major slowdown when using the Tabler SVG based webfonts. The page load is first stalled by Firefox apparently loading all the Web Fonts, which would appear normal with any browser (though exceedingly slow on Firefox for some reason).

However, once the page is loaded, when going off tab to another browser tab, and then back to the Firefox tab that includes the Tabler webfonts, there is a 3 second delay before the tab switches. When we enable the performance analyzer, we find that the delay is almost 100% Reflow of the page, even though the page is static as this point (no changes) from the last time it was activated.

We do not have this issue on Firefox for Linux, MS Edge or any other Chromium browser, only Firefox on Windows. I'm using the latest version 134. Should I be opening a bug?

When I awoke my laptop from sleep this morning, the opened Mercari tab did not load correctly, forcing me to log out and attempt to reset it. It acted as if I was not logged in to begin with and would not load the correct account information. When I logged out and then attempted to log back in, I was given an error that stated that the password or account was incorrect. I contacted Mercari Support for assistance, first, as I could not log into my account on an Edge browser, either. When I opened a Chrome browser, it auto-logged me in without issue. Mercari support assisted me for close to 13 hours, and eventually changed my email address associated with my account. Unfortunately, after that, I still could not get logged in, still getting the same wrong password or account message on my laptop. HOWEVER, when I opened firefox on my phone and attempted to log in there, it worked, using the same account and password information as I had attempted on my laptop. Additionally, I was able to log into my Mercari app on my phone, as well as BOTH Chrome and Edge on my laptop. It is only Firefox on my laptop which is not accepting the correct information. I have cleared my cache on firefox, which did not work. I have done an end task on Firefox on my laptop and restarted it, which did not work. I have restarted my laptop, which did not work. I power cycled my T-mobile router, which did not work. I even connected to the internet via hot-spot through my motorola phone, which also did not work. I can log into Mercari on any other way that I attempt, using the same account and password, EXCEPT for Firefox on my Lenovo. Firefox claims that it is up to date and will not find a newer update. Nothing was altered, to my knowledge, between putting my laptop to sleep last night and waking it up this morning. No updates, power interruptions, or anything that I am aware of. I am at my wit's end and am out of ideas for things to try to fix this. Please help. I do NOT want to have to run Chrome again, just to be able to log into a single page on my laptop.

I'm trying to log into this page: https://accounts.firefox.com

The sign up or sign in button doesn't work. The first time I click it, it immediately refreshes. I click again and nothing. On the 3rd click, it just spins for 30 seconds then goes back to being blue. This continues every time I attempt to click further.

I can login on this page just fine using Firefox on my android phone. I can also login using the Edge browser. Matter of fact, I had to use Edge so I could post this issue.

This is a completely fresh install of Firefox, on a completely fresh install of Windows.

I have searched Support, enabled media Autoplay for all sites, Page Info for individual sites. Videos play but never with audio. Currently using FF 134.0 (64-bit) on Debian 12, but recall some problems starting about the 133.0 update. No audio with Youtube, Amazon testimonials/reviews, etc.

Please help?

I'm trying to use a script which requires a question mark after the "dot com." I.e., if the url should be http://www.URL.com?custom_URL, it changes it to http://www.URL.com/?custom_URL. How to I keep it from changing the URL - and what is the point of jamming that slash in there in the first place?

This is my second attempt at getting an answer. Can't anyone help me with this?

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!

When I press a hotkey that involves Ctrl (ie. opening a new Tab via Ctrl+T or closing one via Ctrl+W) Ctrl sometimes remains stuck until I press it again. This will cause issues ie. when I open a new tab and try to type a new address (or search term), and Ctrl causes new hotkeys to be executed.

I've even tried launching firefox with a new profile, and on safe mode (firefox --safe-mode -p <something-else-than-usual>), so no bookmarks, cookies or extensions should be causing this, and it will still happen sometimes. The annoying part is that this seems to be an issue with performance. It happens less-often with the empty profile and safe mode, but it still happens, especially if I had just opened a new page some tab, causing the most minute thing for firefox to process.

The problem is probably not the computer specs either (below my specs). Indeed, from what I can tell, firefox does not even seem to function particularily slow in any case. Just this ctrl being stuck seems to happen.

I have also tried disabling hardware-acceleration (and explicitly enabling it), no effect.

Other interesting facts I've discovered: - This for sure does not happen in other programs and - This does not happen with the Ctrl for all the keybinds within firefox. For example, Ctrl+A (for select all) does not trigger this

(I have no idea why it's reporting that I'm using Sway, I'm most certainly only using labwc, maybe labwc just reports sway for some programs for compatibility) I've installed firefox from pacman, and my current version is firefox 134.0.1-1
