Every time I install Firefox and try to synchronise data it says open the hamburger menu and tap synchronise and save data. I have never found the synchronise and save data setting. It is not apparently visible when you touch the hamburger menu. So where is it hiding? I've never been able to find it?

I was unable to find this issue online or on the forums, so wanted to see if anyone can help

-using FF for Android (latest official release) and 1password (latest release). 1password is selected as default password manager and I have disabled prompts for FF to manage and autofill passwords

-when visiting a site with a linked password, the 1password field comes up to fill the saved password, but after clicking, FF brings up a warning:

Fill anyway 1password can't verify the app or website should have access to your XXXXXX login.

Cancel Fill once


Clicking fill once will fill the password correctly most of the time, but this behavior didn't occur previously. Previously, the password would be filled without the extra Firefox prompt.

What I've tried and noticed -removing and reinstalling both FF and 1password, and clearing cache for both -changing default password manager to none and then back to 1password -occurs in regular mobile and "desktop" modes -started occurring maybe in the last month or so, and beforehand this wasn't a problem.

-this problem doesn't occur with other browsers -in the autofill section of FF, the "autofill in other apps" slider is set to off, and there is no way I can slide it on, however when I click on it, it shows that the default android password manager is 1password

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I have a Huawei P30 Pro and beta Firefox browser. When I try to view my passwords on Firefox, it brings up a lock screen password prompt. This page requires my password, but the password is not recognized, even though it is correct. The lock screen password works in other situations but not in Firefox

Hello! I am writing a paper and for studying I open almost a hundred tabs. Here the browser starts to freeze already in the process of opening these tabs, it is impossible to work. fox, if possible, does not collapse tabs, this is good and at the same time bad from the point of view of working with a large number of tabs. android gets stuck after fox due to the excess of RAM use by fox. I would like some of your solutions for this in the future, other browsers do not have this problem. your browser starts to feel good again with these tabs if you enter it again since the tabs were collapsed by its restart. *my phone: Shark 8, 8/256GB, Android 13

Every other time I open a weather Underground site to look at weather forecast for my area, I now get a pop up ad across the screen! It says something like "You're using pop up ad blocker and Weather Underground needs you to turn it off". So I've tried multiple times to turn it off. I'm doing something wrong, because it clears after I do this and starts up again after that! Help!!

I think the home page changed with the recent Firefox 137.0 update on my Android phone. It feels like something that may have changed intentionally, but it disrupts my existing usage. I would hope there is at least a configuration option to revert it, but I cannot find one.

I used to be able to gesture "back" out of a tab into my home page where I would see the search/location bar, tab controls, and hamburger menu at the bottom of the screen. (See second attached screenshot for this normal screen I'm talking about.) I would very often either use the tabs button to choose a different existing tab or the hamburger menu to get into the full Bookmarks list.

Lately, the back gesture drops me into a screen where input to the search/location bar is already activated, so the keyboard is open and the tabs + menu controls are replaced with the QR code button. (See first attached screenshot.) My usage of Firefox on a phone is very different than on a laptop with a keyboard. On a phone, I rarely want to write search terms, so this automatic input mode is a frustrating trap.

I have to gesture "back" again to get from this screen to the original screen, but with the keyboard open, I have to do the gesture in the upper half of of the screen, which is awkward with one-handed operation. Otherwise, the gesture is likely to trigger keyboard input instead.

Ideally, I'd like to skip this activated search screen and have the tabs + menu remain the bottom of the screen with the keyboard closed. (As in second attached screenshot.)

But, I never use that QR code button either. I also see it as a misfeature to have it replace the tabs and menu buttons when input is activated. I feel like the QR scanner should be hidden under the menu or show up as a third button, making the location bar a little narrower without moving the existing buttons.

If the tabs and menu buttons remained, at least I could try to use them directly without having to do the extra back gesture. But, the open keyboard input is still awkward, since it shoves the buttons halfway up the screen and muscle memory doesn't work for the target.
