I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

Several websites I've visited on my Firefox-Android browser generate a popup message that requires me to "enable java script" if I want to gain access. All FAQ I've searched so far says that Firefox enables Java by default. When I navigate to 'site settings' on the Android app settings menu there are no adjustments one can make at all. So . . . (1) Is Java enabled by default on the Firefox Android browser, and (2) Would any kind soul who knows what's wrong clue me in, regardless? Much thanks in advance!

Hello all,

I have been having a problem while accessing the websites of some utility bills when using Firefox. For example, on this utility portal for viewing a bill, all the interactive elements like buttons and dropdowns did not behave well.

I've tried clearing my cache and disabling add-ons, but that didn't seem to do the trick. Has anyone else had any issues with Firefox compatibility on particular websites? Are there settings I can try changing?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Amazon Fire blocks access to Firefox from silk browser, google search and is not in their app store. There are other app with same problem. Is this legal ? Is there a work around?

I just got a new phone a couple of days ago. I am used to watching youtube on browser instead of the app for one simple reason: adblock. I set everything up the same way I had it on my old phone. But this one always needs me log in again after a few hours, which is a new issue. I already contacted youtube about it and they told me it's probably an issue with cookie settings. ...but I can't find cookie settings anywhere. All the tutorials are for older versions and simply don't work anymore!

Hello. When I look up a word at a Merriam-Webster site like https://unabridged.merriam-webster.com/ or https://www.merriam-webster.com/ with the Android version of Firefox, it cannot play the pronunciation of the word correctly especially after it is played once. It is kind of divided in segments with abrupt stops. In other words it is not played smoothly.

This has been being continuing for a few months now, and updating Firefox has not improved. I think it is a bug, but I do not know how to report it. Does anyone know how?

I am not able to switch between Gmail accounts when using the Firefox app on my Android phone. Here is a little screen capture video of me trying to do it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HTrFabRoBlyxWb8NZW2JgosKh1B7VjVZ/view?usp=sharing Thank You, Paul Hossfield

Here is a "story": 1. I want to sign in into github using a passkey stored on my yubikey 2. I plug in my yubikey 5C into my phone (samsung z flip 6) 3. I open github.com in firefox 4. I press "sign in with a passkey" 5. Firefox opens some samsung chooser, I choose "other devices > show qr code" 6. login fails and firefox opens Google's prompt to enter pin for the yubikey (but the login already failed, so it does not matter)

My roommate experiences the same bug with his yubikey and his samsung S24.

Doing the same in chrome works. Instead of opening samsung thing it opens Google thing directly where I can choose "use a different device" and it works after that (no login fail).

Is this a known issue? Can I do something to fix it or at least debug it?

(images are, in order, "prompt when using 'sign in with a passkey' in firefox", "login fails as soon as I tap 'show QR code'", and "prompt when using 'sign in with a passkey' in chrome)

I use wiktionary a lot on my phone. When I'm looking for a Word, the Wiktionary search bar offers suggestions while typing. However, when I try to select one of the suggestions (since this would be much easier than completing the word I've been typing) the dropdown suggestions box disappears. (Firefox for Android. Phone Samsung S22, Android 14, OneUi 6.1, Firefox 134.0.1) I have no idea whether this is an issue about how Wiktionary is coded, or how Firefox works, or about Android os but in any case I'm weary of this and I'm considering installing another browser on my phone just for wiktionary. I've been using Firefox since the beginning I guess, and since I don't want to use any other browser I hope this issue is resolved as soon as possible.

Hello. I've troubleshooted an error that I suspect may be a technical issue caused by the Firefox browser. I've provided information below for additional troubleshooting:

PROBLEM: Broken Link to Amazon.com from the Libby Application on an Samsung Galaxy S23 (Android 14 OS) I noticed an error using Libby via mobile app versus desktop app. When choosing to read a library book via Kindle through the Libby mobile app, the link sending me to Amazon for checkout via Firefox initially works but after sign-in will error saying "We're sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site." However, whenever the same process is done using the desktop, the Amazon error screen no longer occurs.

TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS: - Turned off VPN - Reinstalled Libby app & restarted device: no change - Deleted browser cache: no change - Service Ticket to Libby: Libby indicated it may be an Amazon issue - Service Ticket to Amazon: Amazon indicated it may be a Firefox issue - Tried the same process/link using Firefox desktop: sign-in worked - Tried the same process/link using Google Chrome mobile: sign-in worked - Verified the same process/link using Firefox desktop: sign-in still did not work

From what I can deduce, there may be an issue using the link from a mobile device using Firefox on an Android OS device. Is there any other resolve to this?

Video turns sideways in full screen even with landscape setting on, Android tablet is oriented in landscape position, video is played, but when full screen is selected, video turns sideways, irrespective of the tablet setting for auto rotation on or off. This seems specific to Firefox, not in Chrome.

Hi,

I am facing an issue whenever I visit any website with Marathi or Devnagari font on one particular device, e.g. www.loksatta.com. The app is updated to the latest version. I am using Samsung Galaxy M51.

I have reset the data, reinstalled the app but it didn't help. This is happening on only one device, on my other devices, phone/ tablet/ iPhone, I don't have any issues with the same website.

With best regards, Abhinay
