Howdy folks, hope all is well your way...

When I download a file, a notification pops up when the download is complete. I find this quite annoying, especially when downloading file in a bit of rapid succession.

Is there some way to turn this off on FF mobile?

I tried... about:config > browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel on the nightly build, but after having created the option, it doesn't seem to work.

I would be forever indebted to any suggestions y'all can provide.

Thanks.

Been two years or more since this was aked it seems.... How to get bookmarks to save and display (and bookmarks bar to show) in Android version (i.e. had there been updates such to make it work)?

Sometimes I want to close tabs to free up memory but I don't want to close the tab I'm currently using so I have to close all other tabs manually which is tedious.

Perhaps tapping and holding could bring up a menu that says "Close all other tabs" and/or "Close tabs before/after" like on desktop.

Hi,

I noticed that on Brave or any chromium based browser (Android), I would be able to just simple highlight part of an URL and then the whole url would be automatically selected. This behaviour is not possible on Firefox (Android) and I would have to manually select the whole URL myself. Please see here for a clearer picture: demonstration Is there a setting that I can possibly turn on to have the same function as in Brave or chromium browsers?

Thanks

I want to turn off full screen warning but every time I enter 'about : config' it serves the term and I get a page of articles related to the topic. How do I get to the advance preferences page?

Why in this world firefox for android doesn't have speed dial and speed dials folders like literally rest of browsers ?!? why this is such a problem to do it ?!?!?

Hello,

This recent update in how PDFs are handled is really poor. The responses to the effects of the update seem really arrogant.

No, your PDF viewer is not better than Adobe reader. Even if it was, I want the choice to download directly to my preferred app, even if you think it sucks. I thought Mozilla was all about choice? That's why I thought I donated monthly. I want control over the software I use. It's been a pattern with Mozilla, for example, removing about:config for people who don't want dev builds.

Just like desktop Firefox, I want to choose how to handle files and choose how my software works:

View in FF Download to disk Open in an App

No, i don't want to go the FF version first.

It's seems odd that I'm even explaining this. Please revert this change, it's bad for so many reasons. Please also consider why the culture at Mozilla is giving users less control, not more.

Hi, I like a background/wallpaper from the limited edition wallpapers to cutomize home tab in Firefox android, so is there a way to download it or save it and use it as my phone's background aswell? Thanks.

The pdf displays like trash, with letters all crammed together and overlapping (crappy kerning!).

I am on the latest Android firefox as of today (4/27/23).

Example attached. Happens on all pdfs.

Any ideas?

A firefox mozilla béta androidra telepítse utáni időzóna beállítást nem tudom elvégezni. Lehet, hogy a facebook időbélyegzőjét veszi alapul, mert annak az időzónája jelenik meg a fb oldalakon ?

I'm on version 112.2.0 and I cannot disable the "feature" that haphazardly shoves my history in to groups that have nothing to do with each other but Firefox THINKS are related. The support post I've found discussing this promised there'd be a "disable search groups" option in version 97, but I'm on version 112.2.0, which (for those of you counting) is 5 mainline iterations afterwards. How do I fix this? It's constantly breaking my History.

Any progress with this?

I've encountered a problem where the defaults appear to have changed.

The ability to adjust margins would help triage the problem.

Evidentially, about:config isn't supported on Android either.

Thanks in advance.

Hi team ,

I am looking for a configuration or a way to enable Firefox to work in Kiosk Mode ( WebView) on Android device. We are pushing Firefox and webapps from Airwatch MDM solution and Firefox opens fully instead of in WebView mode.

So I need some help here with App configuration or some kind of configuration file that I can puch from Airwatch to make firefox open in Kiosk Mode. Any help , very much appreciated. Thanks

How to Request Desktop Site By Default on all tab in the Firefox Android app? I hate to use 1 more browser for this function. FF have speed, security, block ad and I still have to use 2 browser, why @@.

I've been reusing android firefox again lately and I noticed I would have a bunch of tabs at a time. Then I realized that it was because whenever I would click a shortcut from the search screen it would open the page in a new tab instead of staying on the current tab. Is there a way to change this?

Hi there, Firefox on Android is unable to show a progress on files that is currently being downloaded. It does, show notification, and I can pause and cancel it from there, but the details are unknown, the progress bar doesn't tell how much bytes has been downloaded and when i press pause and resume, the state is horribly unknown, the progress becomes 0%, etc. What I want is that Downloads menu in three-dots menu must show this too, not only the files that has been downloaded.
