I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

Ever since a recent update the Firefox app for android has had issues with text input for me. It's only Firefox, nothing else on my device has this issue, and it makes inputting text a huge hassle.

It often seems like the cursor randomly will move into a word even if it shouldn't, or it will trigger an auto-complete partway through typing a word (despite me having this disabled). It especially seems to happen if I go back to correct a word that had a typo or if I'm typing something with a hyphen, so "level-headed" will become something like "level-level-head-lehvel", as if it's repeatedly trying to autocomplete from different parts in the word.

This seems most notable if I access sites that I have saved to my homescreen for easy access (such as Tumblr, since I don't use the app), but seems to happen at random in general.

It makes text input pretty frustrating, which is a probem since that's a primary thing I do online.

Firefox is my Standard Browser and worked fine until today. Now I'm forced to choose between Chrome and Samsung when I User a link from an Email. The link doesn' t work until I change my standard to einher one of them. Hier can I set Firefox as a standard to open links? In the settings Firefox ist the standard browser.

For the past.. month I would say, any time I try to use Youtube on my Firefox Browser it nearly always switches over to landscape mode after watching a video. It doesn't matter whether my phone screen's auto rotate is on or off it still does it. Yes. I already tried to turn my auto rotate on to switch it back to potrait mode, it still won't work. The only solution I currently have is closing Youtube all together from my Browser, which really REALLY sucks!!

Can someone PLEASE look into the glitch?!

All of a sudden, Firefox for Android has been using about 1GB of data daily. My Data Usage monitor says it is almost all Foreground data.

I barely use Firefox for watching videos or streaming anything, especially when not on WiFi.

I run two extensions — Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin, both of which I would assume should be saving me data by blocking ads and trackers.

Data collection settings are set to Off. Autoplay is blocked for audio and video. Stories (sponsored or not) and sponsored Shortcuts are disabled. Tabs open for 2+ weeks are automatically moved to Inactive.

Without thinking I uninstalled Firefox on my android. It appears I didn't have an account set up or had synced my bookmarks and open tabs. Is there any way to get them back? 😞

here is the example link

Firefox keeps crashing after only 2cminutes of use on Amdroid-here's the message:

Hi everyone, I'm Ekin. Firefox is by far my favorite browser, and I proudly use it accros all of my devices. However, the lack of support for theme extensions on Android- especially on tablets- is a really frustrating limitation for me and many other mobile users. The standart UI can feel a bit plain on larger tablet screens. I would highly appreciate it if you could consider bringing full theme and extension support to the Android version. Specifically, having the ability to use animated themes and tab customizations (like the classic Nyan Cat theme) would make the mobile experience incredibly fun and and dynamic. Thank you for your hard work, and I hope to see this feature in the future updates. Best regards, Ekin

Everything I had saved has gone. My passwords for at least 12-14 years all the shortcuts to everything I had have gone. Even my saved recovery key has gone. Cannot even recover to an earlier time. I have been with you for donkeys years. I am absolutely heartbroken

The problem is that whenever I use some website like a streaming website I just cannot dream something like I have get into the home screen like I can't charge a lot of movies choose a lot of movies not charge our movies so and when choosing movies for example I just know he is not click the movie and when I'm watching it like I am at the place we in like you know Boss play That's action it is not work I mean it does not work

Hi everyone,

I recently started using Firefox on Android to download and print coloring pages for my kids from websites like https://kleurplatenteprinten.nl/ https://kleurplatenteprinten.nl/ , but sometimes the PDF files either open blank, keep loading forever, or do not download properly.

The same files seem to work normally in Chrome, so I’m wondering if this could be related to Firefox settings, built-in PDF handling, or a mobile download permission issue.

I already tried:

Clearing browser cache Switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data Disabling tracking protection for the site

but the issue still happens occasionally.

Has anyone experienced similar problems with printable PDF pages or downloads in Firefox mobile? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I just switched to ff from chrome on both desktop and phone as well, and I was very pleased to discover how much ff has to offer. My question is: how do I see new news on the "News" panel which can be accessed from the home page on the right top (see pic attached). The contents are various, which is good and I understand I have to train it first to know my interests, which is not a problem. However, since installing (about a week ago) I have not seen anything new there. The pull to refresh is not working, there is no button I can press. I even thought I have to open them to sort of knock them out from the row, but that would be silly. But even after opening and reading the full article, upon returning to the panel, the same article is still there... 🤔 So, no news for me 😅 Is this a bug? Chrome got soo bloated with AI like Windows and has as many adverts like Facebook, so I looked for an alternative. Ff looked promising and after switching to Linux from Windows, it came as preinstalled browser. Ff is an old acquaintance, I have used it back in the time from since it was launched. Even then it was a better option, than Internet Explorer. We all get hijacked now and again to the new and shiny alternatives (hence the change to Cromer some time ago). But when the new and shiny is not so shiny anymore... Anyways, please help me out in where I'm missing something. The experience is very nice in any other way and extra medal for giving us the option to tailor AI features and not just cramming them down our throats. I am including a screenshot from the most recent chrome browser for Android to see the cramming and the layout. There a simple pull to refresh does the job.

Thank you for reading my rambling Kind Regards Zsanett

I couldn't sync passwords which I added in browser desktop. I don't see passwords on phone I want all synced to my phone from desktop what I saved in there via Mozilla account.

I've been having an issue for months where I cannot use Amazon on the Firefox mobile browser. Amazon redirect links won't open in the app and I can't use the browser version of Amazon because whenever I try to log in, it just opens up another tab prompting me to log in. Endlessly.

Ive ceared all browsing data (cookies, cache, site data) Set cookies to "Ask to allow" Disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection for Amazon Set "Open links in apps" to "Always" in Firefox settings Verified Amazon app is set as default for Amazon links in Android system settings (Open by default → Open supported links is enabled) Reinstalled both Firefox and the Amazon app Tested on other browsers (Samsung Internet works fine with the same links)

When I tap an amzn.to link, screen flashes white briefly (like it's trying to open the app), then dumps me into a new browser tab When I try to log into Amazon in Firefox, I enter credentials, hit login, and it immediately opens a new tab asking me to log in again. infinite loop The "Need Help" link on Amazon's login page successfully opens the Amazon app, so app handoff does work I guess, just not in any useful way that I've been able to find.

Facebook messenger won't work with Firefox for Video and Audio calls. How can it be made to work, even if it involves plugins or even spoofing a different browser?
