  • Opening links results in an error that says "This web site requires a secure connection."
  • When I removed the first https:// then the website will open correctly without the error.

Thank you.

* Opening links results in an error that says "This web site requires a secure connection." * Upon checking the URL you will see that '''https://''' will be added before '''href.li/?https://''' which results in '''https://href.li/?https://example.com''' * When I removed the first https:// then the website will open correctly without the error. Thank you.

Hi

What happens when you try to open https://href.li/ in Firefox for Android?

It says that "This web site requires a secure connection" that error page. Additionally, I think the problem is only occuring in one app that I used which is Tumblr, I tried opening weblinks in other apps and they are working as intended.

Are you using any VPN or firewall apps on your Android device?
