The widget mic makes a very annoying sound every time that you tap it to do a search. It is tied to the ringer volume apparently. Is this a Firefox feature that can be turned off? Or is this tied to Android only and you have zero control?

If you have control over it, please disable it, it's pointless and serves no purpose. When you tap the microphone a big huge screen comes up letting you know to speak.

Before Firefox for Android v100 it was possible to show only pinned sites in the top sites section in the home screen. Now alongside my pinned sites (currently 3) there are 2 rows of 4 sites and 2 pages. All these other sites are pages related to my work, full of test URLs, 500 or 404 pages... and so on. How do I revert it to the old behavior?

I have installed Firefox for Android on my Galaxy S22. When I click on the Firefox icon on my app screen to bring up the app, I get a page with "Firefox Browser" at the top, BUT the blank to enter a web address (that one wants to visit) shows at the left end a Google icon. I try to stay away from Google whenever possible. Whose browser will I be using if I type the desired web address into the described blank: Google or Firefox. If it is, in fact, the Firefox browser, why does it show the Google icon?

Thanks for reading, help and suggestions.

I have installed and utilize two different browsers for Android phones: Firefox and Opera. When reading an article I was sent part of in my email, I opened the entire article so I could read the article in it's entirety. You choose to open the article in my Opera browser when you could have detected that I had Firefox, a browser you support, and opened it in the Firefox browser. Then we wouldn't have had to stop and go back and copy the article's URL and open my Firefox browser myself. I don't have either of my browsers set as "default" for exactly this reason; so articles can open their publication in the browser of their choice. By the way, the URL that I was opening was: https://member.carepayment.com/Errors/UnsupportedBrowser. This is the first time I have ever been told what browser I could use to view a personal account. Next time, detect that there's a supported browser and open the one you like and support. My Firefox browser could have been opened by you, but not receiving any instructions otherwise, it opened my Opera browser and I couldn't see my personal account of a healthcare payment company.

With the removal of a 'speed dial' from the recentish big update of Firefox for Android I thought I could use the Shortcuts (on the somewhat limited homepage options) to do the same job.

But these don't seem to sync with Firefox for Windows and there's no Shortcuts option in the sync menu. I switch between two platforms a lot and having those shortcuts sync is really important as I add pages for looking at at different times on different devices.

I *know* I could use bookmarks, but that's another couple of clicks every time I want to go to a webpage - over the course of a day that could be hundreds.

It's used to be possible to have a syned homepage in Firefox for Android. It's still possible in Vivaldi, Opera & Brave. But I'd like to use Firefox.

Anyone any info on how I can sync the homepage Shortcuts across Firefox for Android and for Windows?

Or is there another way of having a synced speed dial-style homepage on Firefox on different platforms?

Ever tried to download a file through firefox and then pause it to resume it after sometime and end up having the rest of the file being downloaded in an instant but upon opening realise the file has been corrupted. I am facing this issue like so frequently it has become like a norm that pausing a downloading file will give a corrupted one for sure. And please note that other browsers don't reproduce the issue infact the links are pause supported in all aspects

Hello. I have been having this problem for a while now. When I enter an address in an existing tab with a :port number at the end of the website address and press the RETURN key the browser does nothing. You can see this issue in the video below. Video will expire on 12th september 2022 https://files.fm/f/xm2mxb829 Only way for me to enter an address with a port is to use an older website link from history or send tab from my desktop through ff sync.

Is there something wrong with my device or is it the browser. Im using firefox for android 102.2.0 on android 10

A recent update (v102) to Firefox for Android has broken "search browsing history". Before, I was able to type "tw" and see a list of ~20 Twitter results from my browsing history, arranged by frequency of visit; now, it only shows one. Is this new behaviour a deliberate change (if so, it's really bad compared to the ease of usability of the feature previously - please revert it!) or a bug?

Hi there! I have a new S22+, all systems up to date. I'm logged into Firefox on both the Android and on my Mac Air.

Last time I migrated to a new phone, Sync filled in all my passwords on the phone. This time I'm having to copy and paste all the passwords; Samsung autopass (or whatever it's called) offers to fill them in, but of course doesn't have those passwords anyway.

What do I need to tweak or do differently to get the passwords to fill in?

And im guessing me struggling in the way that i did.that someone who's IT skilled and definitely equipped with enough knowledge is going to be needed..And how i deeply wish and pray that someone can renew my faith by doing something that a number of guys with so called IT experience who kinda breaged about it were all stuck and xualy shocked coz it sounded easy until they themselves were speechless..atleast there's one guy who says there is a way. That is why i chose to ask whoever doesnt matter for their help and info please guys anyone who is willing to be kind enough to help..i would really appreciate and Definitely help wont be be in vain..a blessing towards someone who helps others is rightfully earned...
