Firefox Focus Isithangami Sokwesekwa

In choosing a search engine, I found out from the directions on Firefox focus how to add them. But when they gave the string for Wikipedia, it did not work. I was wondering if any knew the accurate one and also is there a webpage that gives search strings for many apps or web pages? When I did a search under “Wikipedia Search Engine String”, I didn’t see a web page that offered it and I couldn’t find it on the Wikipedia site. If someone doesn’t mind, can you give me the directions on how to find them? I would be very grateful.

Hello, my name is Devin. Long time use of all Mozilla Products. I would like to know how to add more favorites or bookmarks to my homepage on Firefox Focus. I have 4 already. Is there a limit on the amount of favorites you can add?

Thanks, Your Loyal Customer & User, Dev “

In Firefox Focus for Android Version 110.1.0 Build#370591223 the option 'Add Shortcut' does not appear in the menu anymore. It was there prior to the update yesterday. I still have several shortcuts listed on the home page when Focus opens which I cannot remove, but that's a different issue.

Has this feature been removed from Firefox Focus for Android?

Hi I have discovered that when trying to login to https://help.ui.com it seems that some kind of redirection is broken just in Firefox focus.

I am able to successfully login to that website in Chrome, Normal Firefox and duckduckgo.

Step 1: navigate to https://help.ui.com on Android FF Focus Step 2: click the hamburger menu at the top Step 3: click login Step 4: witness the brokenness

You have firefox focus browser, firefox focus browser (beta), firefox focus beta for testers and firefox focus nightly (early access). I tried all 4 of them but i couldn't find any difference between the 4 types of firefox focus. So i was wondering why does those 4 exist if there is no difference or am i missing something?

Hi, I have an account with https://www.theguardian.com . On iOS 16.4.1 with the latest Firefox Focus as of today 25 April 2023 (112.0) I kept getting sign-in failures because of Google Captcha issues. Initially I thought it was an issue with Google or the Guardian but this was lasting for many days. I could sign in fine using Safari on Mac Venture 13.3.1 . So I finally had the idea of disabling the content blocker - Firefox Focus, and then the Guardian's sign in page with the Google captcha worked fine and I was allowed to sign in on Safari, plus the iOS app The Guardian as it is using Safari for signing-in. Please fix this. Thank you

Especially for some sites, such as the Washington Post, when attempting to clear Focus by tapping the trash can, Focus freezes, then (both) the iPad or iPhone go black with a small spinning circle, rebooting to iPad's/iPhone's entry screen. This started happening recently, in early 2023, after updating iOS. Very very very (did I say "very"?) annoying. If this is not a current Focus bug report, it should be.

Will a mozilla tech install the vpn for me? (I'm not very good at the tech) I have windows10 and use Firefox. Assume Focus is an up grade to firefox. Does it offset the need for a vpn?

I literally have no idea how to use it. The moment I click to close ad on many websites, the website redirects me. In other browsers, new tab opens which I can just close. However, here I need to return to the previous website, which sometimes even doesn’t work from ad website. How am I supposed to go through closing ads so that I can finally start, e.g. watching a video?

As far as I am concerned there is no way of opening multiple tabs on this browser, which means there most likely isn’t option to automatically open links in a new tab.

I can't figure out why Firefox Focus for Android is opening Amazon links by default. It isn't set as the default browser, as far as I can tell it doesn't have anything set to open by default. Usually I have the option to choose which browser to open a link with because I have multiple browsers installed.

I'm using a Galaxy s22 Ultra running Android 13. Any suggestions would be appreciated

I downloaded foxfire focus on my pixel phone. When I sign into my e-mail and certain websites the browser is showing not secure. I try to login from that phone but couldn’t because the links didn’t work.

Can’t get pictures it flashes up so quickly can’t catch a picture. What would cause browser not being secure.

I have encountered performance issues on my webite Gulfcareerz.online while using Firefox Focus for Android. I've noticed significant delays in page loading and occasional misalignment of elements. Are there any specific steps or configurations that can be implemented to enhance the browsing experience on this website? Your insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello,

I am having the hardest time trying to add a bookmark in firefox focus for ios. I have done it in the past and somehow that option can no longer be found and the three dots are missing from the top of the window. How could something so essential and common be so difficult to find? Am I just missing something so obvious??? Bottom context menu does not have it, holding down menu on page does not work, three dots are missing. There are no other menus which would provide actions. I am really struggling with how difficult it is.

Thank you.

Ever since the past week or so, when watching a video and rotating my phone to landscape, the video will not expand to landscape. There is a very tiny box center mid at the top that is the video but the the full window is gray. I have pixel 5 with up to date android.

How can I open a blank new tab in Firefox Focus browser on Android. The only option now seems to be to press and hold a link in the existing webpage and to select Open link in private tab? Thank you

When I do a search in the recently downloaded Firefox focus, I am still directed to google. Is that how Firefox focus works.? And I thought I would be searching the Internet through Firefox and nothing would be going through Google. The default search engine is still set for Ecosia and there is no option to use Firefox. Did I do something wrong here or is that the way this works?

The onscreen Keyboard lags on both an iPhone and an iPad. I tried restarting the app and the devices and tried reset the keyboard dictionary. The issue persisted. The Keyboard doesn’t lag anywhere else.

Is this a known issue?

Hello Mozilla community,

I've been a dedicated user of Firefox Focus for its privacy-centric browsing experience. However, I feel like I'm only scratching the surface of what this browser has to offer in terms of protecting my online privacy.

I'm interested in delving deeper into the privacy features that Firefox Focus provides. Could someone please share some insights on how to make the most of features like tracking prevention, automatic data clearing, and the overall enhanced privacy settings? Are there any lesser-known tips or settings I should be aware of?

Moreover, I'm curious about the compatibility of Firefox Focus with various platforms and devices. Does it function similarly across desktop and mobile? Are there any differences in terms of privacy features or settings between the two?

I believe that by learning more about Firefox Focus, I can take better control of my online privacy and security. Thank you for sharing your expertise and helping me make the most of this fantastic browser.
