I have set Firefox to delete all data on quit. It does not. Details of closed tabs are not erased. I would be happy for no browser history to be saved but this does not seem to be an option.

Hi, Being that OLED and AMOLED screens have become more frequent in recent years (and seem to be coming to stay) I am perplexed by the seeming impossibility of finding a way to make Firefox more friendly towards these devices.

I would like to use Firefox with a true black theme on its UI that would waste less battery and go easier on my screen's long-time durability. However, not only do I find that there is no option to do this in-built on the app, there isn't even support for external add-ons or thèmes that could get the job done!

There really shouldn't be any reason why, even if the Mozilla team are unwilling to code the option into the default settings, it couldn't be done through a user-made theme.

Instead, the solutions I've come across seem to span from third-party apps that require rooting the device to modifications made directly by decompiling the APK!

I know this was more of a complaint than a request, but heavy battery usage is a *valid* reason not to use something like a browser, which is likely to accrue several hours of use each charge cycle.

This *is* something Mozilla should care about.

TLDR;

Please point me to a way of making the Firefox UI AMOLED-black that does not require me to mess with the internals of an APK or void my phone's guarantee.

Sorry for the essay.

The issue is, whether I am searching via the address bar or using the search bar while using google (my main search engine) the app seems to be glitch ingredient when I hit enter. Most of the time now, I be pushed back to the previous page or the page before that and the search terms I entered into either field has been deleted. This is probably not a big deal and a minor inconvenience for some. But for me this is a problem because I have adhd and I have literally forgotten what I was trying to search because I was distracted by the information that shows up because the app pushes me back to a previous page.

At first this started about 2 weeks ago but only happened once or twice. Now, the frequency of this occurring is well over 2/3rds of the time. I explained this in a Google play review but it seems that you just have a standard auto reply there.

I will try a different search engine for the time being but I feel that it's more of an app problem than a search engine problem because if I just search in a new tab with no history, the tab seems to want to go to almost previous page but the search field just deletes what I am searching for and acts as if nothing has been done.

Please fix this issue. Besides being annoying, it's very difficult to keep tract of what i am trying to search for.

Thank you

I am professional developer and deliver Android rugged devices to professionals. I do not want to log on my personal Google account just to install Firefox via Google play. I am used to install via adb commands the apk packages. Why cannot we find the apk of Firefox easily to download ? thanks
