How can I set up a VPN on my Android phone

Moderator note: This question has been moved from the Firefox Desktop forum to the Firefox for Android forum.

Hello there, I tried changing location of integrated VPN in the newest version of Firefox (157) but I am unable to interact with the location inside the integrated VPN settings, which remains set to "Recommended". I try to change the setting both with the VPN turned on and off. I'm located in Italy

Device: Poco X3 Pro System Information: RAM: 6 GB + 5 GB extended RAM Kernel Version: 4.14.18 OS Version: MIUI 14 14.0.6

Issue Description: When I switch away from Firefox Mobile and return after even 1 second, the currently opened webpage refreshes every time.

Actual Behavior: Every time I leave Firefox briefly and come back, the webpage reloads.

Additional Notes: The phone is capable of keeping heavier apps in background. I am able to run PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty: Mobile at the same time without background issues, but Firefox still reloads tabs aggressively.

Troubleshooting Already Done: 1. Disabled battery optimization for Firefox 2. Enabled Firefox as locked app in recent apps 3. Disabled phantom process killer 4. Reinstalled Firefox

I got my VPN for Firefox android app, but I can't find the VPN on my windows desktop app although it is the latest version 157, I log out and then sign in with my account but the VPN not showing, I search the settings and nothing there , any help please

On current Firefox & Android, why do I have to turn on VPN every time I open Firefox, if an app redirects a url to Firefox the VPN is off, also what is the Mozilla url I can check I'm connected via VPN? Thank you.

I just activated the built-in VPN for the Firefox browser on Android. How do I change the location? ie. I'm in Australia but want the internet to think I'm in the UK...

When on the von settings panel, is it notmal that the only available option is "recommended". Does that mean we do not have the option to choose a location or is it a bug on my side?

There is no forward gesture (you go back no matter which directionvyou swipe)

The forward button is hidden in a submenu and cannot be mapped next to the address bar.

Kindly, what the frack?
