I-Firefox iOS Isithangami Sokwesekwa

‘Pay with PayPal’ functionality on websites is broken for me and has been across updates of both Firefox and iPadOS for as long as I can remember at this point. I’m using an iPadPro running iOS 16.7.2 with Firefox for iOS version 120.4 (36613). When I’m checking out at e-commerce sites (e.g., J Crew), and I click on the PayPal button when selecting a form of payment, a new tab opens, but it’s literally blank — nothing even tries to connect or load. This happens across e-commerce sites. It doesn’t happen with Firefox on my PC/Windows laptop or on my iPad with other browsers (Chrome, Safari). I have tried everything that I can uninstall/reinstall, deactivate, or toggle, and nothing seems to fix this. I have cross-site tracking disabled in iOS. Some people have suggested that websites are not fully supporting Firefox any longer or that there is a problem with Firefox and Apple’s proprietary rendering engine. I’m really at the end of my wits about this. After having used Firefox faithfully since Netscape disappeared, I’m honestly on the verge of giving up. Please help.

While using Mozilla Firefox browser on my iPad Pro, I often switch back and forth to different apps throughout my workday. The keyboard command shortcut I use is CMD+Tab to switch to different application windows.

The problem that I have is that every time I switch from a different application, BACK to Mozilla Firefox, instead of staying on the website/tab that I was on previously, it opens up a brand new tab. And I have to close the new tab out every single time just to back to the page I wanted to be at before.

In the settings, I can’t for the life of me figure out how to STOP the app from launching a new tab every single time I simply switch back to the application. It’s the most irritating function to have to constantly close out new tab windows.

Lately several websites (like the Washington Post) have told me that I need Javascript to read articles (with a subscription). Is someone at Mozilla working on this? It's really not tolerable.

Whenever i use Firefox on my iPad, if I switch to another app and then back to Firefox, Firefox will automatically open up a new tab. I’d like it to stop, and just go to what I set it as in Preferences, or to what I’ve left open when I switched away from it. I’ve looked in Preferences and cannot find out how to stop it from opening new blank tabs by default.

Is there a way to stop it from doing this?

I have an iPhone 12 mini which does FaceID and does not have a fingerprint touch pad.

Firefox for iOS now is asking for fingerprint to access my passwords or my access code--but this phone has not fingerprint option. How can I get it to acept faceID instead? Why does it not *KNOW* to ask for FaceID or offer that as an option?

This is new behavior since....maybe iOS16 update?

iPhone 12mini iOS 16.0.2 Firefox 106.1 (20911) Set to autoupdate on all of these

Support: I am WORSE than "technically incompetent/illiterate"...(getting to this message is tough for me). I am trying to determine the "version" of Firefox that I've "ATTEMPTED" to download into my Windows PC. I need to "update firmware" (??????????????) for use with a cryptocurrency site. WHERE /HOW do I find out 'IF' I've downloaded?..and WHAT VERSION doI have?

On my iPad I switch back and forth between Firefox and other apps quite often (using the "App Switcher" or some older method.) But every time I return to Firefox it opens a new tab. I want it to return to the tab I last had focus on, i.e. the tab that I was last looking at and interacting with. This is new behavior over the last few months. Is there a setting that can disable this "feature"?

HI,

I using a new VPN and forefox refuse to work. Chrome and Safari works very well with it just not fiorefox. I guess it s a network setting but i cant figure out how to make it work IF anybody could help please

Some pages in Firefox show inverted / in negative colours in iOS Firefox. Same page appears fine in Safari on the same phone, so I'm guessing it's a Firefox setting somewhere but can't find anything obvious. Seen the same problem discussed online - but no obvious answer. Anyone got any help? Thanks.

When choosing to open the Last Tab as your starting tab, it just opens the first tab of all the tabs you have open. Seems that setting it to Homepage does the same thing. I deleted Firefox and and reinstalled; still no change.

I always use and have set the opening screen to the “last tab” option, but since version 115.1 was released, when closing and reopening FF (or after it refreshes itself) it reopens on the very first tab.

If I close that tab, it opens on the new first tab, same thing if I rearrange them.

If it’s useful, I have the “inactive tabs” option disabled, and have like, 150~200 tabs open atm.
