I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

Up until recent versions, I had the option to choose after what duration of inactivity, all open private tabs would close automatically. After the recent update, I can't locate this setting. Moreover, the duration is now not just non customizable, but also random. Sometimes, Firefox closes them in a couple of minutes, sometimes 20, and after more than an hour at other times.

When I go to the firefox website and tap on the microphone to ask a question the Google speech services comes up and I cannot adjust the loud volume on your settings or the phone Google settings. I have a Samsung Galaxy A25 5g phone and on Android 16. I have tried finelock sound assistant and that does not help. Is there an extension that Firefox has that I can use to adjust the volume when tapping on the microphone on Firefox?

I also have a Lenovo Tab M9 9" HD Tablet that has the Android 13 version on it and have no problem at all adjusting the microphone volume on that through the tablet setting.

Since the latest update (v147), the address bar behaves like a normal text input rather than a URL input. This means that if I want to type, say, "google.com", it will autocorrect to "Google. com" (including the space). So every time I want to type a URL, I have to delete the space after every dot. It's very annoying.

I'm running a stock Pixel 9 Pro with all OS updates and standard GBoard keyboard. The problem persists with Firefox 147.0.1

Hello!

Steps to reproduce: 1. Open new tab 2. Start entering something into the search bar

Expected behavior: suggestions from the current search engine are displayed Actual result: only Firefox suggestions are displayed

Note: after tapping SE selection button and selecting a search engine (including the current one), the suggestions appear as expected

Hi developers, I'm running Firefox on an Android tablet and ran into an issue. When I enable the desktop version of the browser, accessing websites (like searching on Baidu) fails to load the desktop version. I compared Edge browser with Firefox and found through website UserAgent detection that when Edge runs desktop websites, it switches UserAgent to Linux, while Firefox maintains Android UserAgent for desktop sites. This causes some websites to ignore network requests and load mobile versions. To resolve this, we need to disable and re-enable desktop website access first, which may allow the site to respond to desktop requests.

Can I adjust the settings to switch to the desktop version of the website? I don't want to switch to another browser.

These text are from translation.

When I try to upload a file from my mobile device, the file doesn't appear. Uploads from Google Drive are displayed, but I can't select the file. I was able to upload images to this page. What could be the reason?

.htaccess .htpasswdでアクセス制限されたサイトがあります。 アクセス制限したサイトに ID,PASSWORD でログインしてページを見ることはできます。 画像も正しく表示されます。 しかし、「画像を保存」すると「ダウンロードに失敗しました」と表示されて画像を保存できません。 同じことを Chrome でした場合は画像をダウンロード、保存できます。

I have a site with restricted access using .htaccess and .htpasswd. I can log in to the restricted site with my ID and password and view the pages. Images are also displayed correctly. However, when I try to "save image," I get the message "Download failed" and can't save the image. When I do the same thing in Chrome, I can download and save the image.

Firefox "DECIDED" to translate my pages into Spanish. And it won't stop. No simple way to select IF, and WHEN, the user wants translation. Without a simple user controlled solution, the user CAN DELETE FIREFOX.

Why? Because I once went to the Costco site in Merida, Mexico to purchase a gift ????

Is this another nail in the Firefox coffin....upgrades that remove useful tools.....endless "tech" options poorly explained for the non tech head user....language changes not requested by the user, triggered in a highly thoughtless and foolish way that cannot be easily removed? Perhaps some Mozilla tech staff are secretly "employed" to promote other browser???

I use Firefox browser on Treasury Direct website to calculate, update, and save the US paper bond values. It was working in October until converting to Windows 11. I am using Firefox version 147.0.1 It has not worked since then. Treasury Direct states that Firefox browser should be used to perform this function. Why isn't it working.

Firefox for Android intermittently gets stuck in landscape orientation after the app has been in the background and is resumed. This does not happen every time, but occurs frequently enough to be noticeable during normal daily use. Once stuck, the orientation does not recover automatically. Note:

Happens only after switching to another app and returning later Does not happen on fresh app launch System auto-rotate continues to work in other apps Sensors appear to work correctly

Recovery The only reliable way to recover is: Force closing Firefox from Recents Reopening the app

Device: Samsung Galaxy S25 OS: Android 16 One UI: 8 Firefox version : latest as on playstore Navigation: Gesture navigation Auto-rotate enabled system-wide

Ever since the recent UI revamp, search does not show suggestions. I confirmed they are enabled in settings. I tried restarting my phone, using other search providers (Google and duck duck go), and stacking trending results, all to no avail.

Dear Firefox dev team,

I work with web based Redmine tool with has multiple date fields in the issue tracker. Since last FF update the date picker does not let me to "clear" the date field contents.

The date picker and field operation is degrading in FF. A time ago you removed the "X" next to date fields which were super easy to use to clear the fields. So I learned to click, open the date picker and click the "clear" there. Now the clear function is gone too. How is it meant to be used now?

For comparison, here is the google chrome and how looks there with date fields (Vymazat = Clear)

Thank you. Filip

I have read replies to this problem of "no ready to scan button to tap" but find no answer. I'm signed in to the App - there is no "ready to scan " button  ??? Please provide a solution.
