Hi, I run Firefox mobile off my android running in dex mode on a monitor. It's been working great for months, but seemingly right after update 142.0 I can't get it to stop zooming in and scrolling to every text field I click on. It wouldn't do any text field focusing before, and it would behave like a normal desktop browser.

On my note 4 (Android 6.0.1) i'm using firefox 143.0.3 (Build #2016117407) and youtube stopped working (wheel turns then gives an error) . First i thought it's was the adblock so i disabled but that didn't fix it. So i used a proxy that also didn't worked. Then i used another browser (chrome, opera mini) and they worked. I didn't change any settings. I installed an addon User-Agent Switcher to change firefox desktop version which also didn't worked.

Edit: Opened only HTTPS mod in the options and did a full shutdown of the phone and now it works. I think youtube or someone else changed something and only HTTPS fixed that, not tech savvy enough to find why.

Hello, I am Firefox Android user and i am having issue with Firefox while browsing substack.com website, When i open that website from a chromium based browser it works well but in Firefox it is slow and in my old mobile(android 9) which is even slower and i never wanted to open it. Twitter(X) is also heavier to open. I stopped using it from Firefox and using a chromium browser for these logins.

Firefox has all the features i wanted and i am satisfied that it is better than any other browser but lacks in performance. It is not smooth as Chromium browser.

Please look into it and it would be great if it just be more smooth like Chromium based browsers.

Thank you

In Firefox Android, if I tap on the button to open a new tab, this new tab appears at the very end of the tab list.

As someone who has lots of browser tabs open most of the time I find this super annoying because if I research a topic further up in my list of tabs, then open a new tab to search for something related to this topic, I now have two sets of tabs related to the same topic that physically spread apart and navigating between these sets tabs becomes more frustrating the more unrelated tabs lie in between them.

I went through Firefox' settings menu, but couldn't find any settings to change this behavior. Is there perhaps some other way to open new tabs next to the one I am currently on?

Warum kann man diesen §$%§ Download-beendet-Mist nicht abstellen? Seit JAHREN! wird darum gebeten und gefragt, doch was passiert? Nichts... Soll das toll sein? Finde ich nicht. Ich brauche keinen Hinweis, daß der DL beendet wurde, und noch viel weniger benötige ich Hilfe zum Öffnen der Datei. Für den einen oder anderen mag das ja hilfreich sein, mich behindert das im Gegenteil ungemein. Schön, daß man den Schiet 'wegwischen' kann, aber a) bin ich keine Putzfrau und b) kann man an dem Platz, wo der Müll vorher war, 20 Sekunden lang nichts machen. Nicht scrollen, nicht klicken, nix! Im Gegenteil, wenn man falsch zur Seite 'wischt', dann erscheint der Dreck wieder... *brech*! Zwanzig Sekunden! Wer zum Teufel denkt sich so ein Gedröse aus? Benötigt man dafür irgendeine Höchstqualifikation oder einen möglichst niedrigen IQ? (Ich frage das für nen Freund...) :P

Firefox WAR mal toll. Aber da about:config ja nun keine Funktion mehr hat, und man immer weniger einstellen kann - der Einstellungen-Button wurde ja auch schon ganz nach unten gelegt, so daß man den auf den ersten Blick schon gar nicht mehr sehen kann, erst wenn man in diesem Menü runterscrollt... - so langsam mag ich keinen FF mehr. Ja, ich bin nur eine einzelne Person, und wenn ich FF irgendwann nicht mehr benutzen sollte, tja, was solls, wen störts? Ich kann dann nur hoffen, daß genügend andere irgendwann auch die Schanauze voll haben und sagen: 'Adieu, war ne schöne Zeit'. Bis dahin werde ich mich verstärkt nach einem alternativen Browser umsehen; sollte ich einen finden, der (für meine Bedürfnisse) besser ist, wars das! (Ja ja, ich weiß, Reisende soll man nicht aufhalten und so, aber trotz allem mag ich den FF und würd nur ungern weggehen(Browser wechseln). Aber wie geschrieben, es wird schon seit Jahren gefragt und gebettelt, und nix passiert. Das ist - ehrlich gesagt - ein Armutszeugnis für jeden ernsthaften und versierten Programmierer/Softwareentwickler/Developer, einfach stumpf nicht auf die Wünsche der User einzugehen sondern stattdessen ihnen vorschreiben zu wollen, wie sie etwas zu benutzen haben, was sie toll zu finden haben etc.pp. Das ist auch der Grund, warum ich Updates mittlerweile meide wie der Teufel das Weihwasser - ständig andere ach-so-tolle 'Designs', runde Buttons, an Stellen verschoben, wo man im Leben nicht nach suchen würde usw. usf. etc.pp!)

Ich habe fertig!

I can save a bookmark, then see it in Firefox for desktop computer via Sync. I need editing the tags for the bookmark when creating it. Something similar was possible with Pocket (now EOL). How could I do? Is there some place on which suggest a feature request?

Thanks in advance

​I am reporting two visual glitches (white bars) occurring in the Android version of Firefox.

  1. White Bar Appear Numbered list items at the Top in Portrait Multi-Select Mode
    When the browser is in portrait mode and I enter the multi-select state (e.g., in the Bookmarks or Downloads management screens), a white bar appears briefly or persists at the top of the screen. This seems like a UI rendering error.
  2. White Bar Appears on the Left Side in Landscape Mode
    When the phone is in landscape mode, a persistent white bar/strip is visible on the far left side of the screen. This affects the full-screen display.

Device Information: ​Android Version: Android 16 ​Firefox Version: 144.0.1 (Build #2016121407)

Firefox on my wife's phone keeps randomly opening. How do I figure out what's causing this. First we noticed it happened when she plugs in an auxgzilery battery pack but then it's randomly opening anytime. What should I try to fix this. I thought I would remove and reinstall Firefox but I just figured the settings would remain as they are.
