Firefox for Android Community Forum

I use firefox on my android Fairphone to play podcasts and videos because I don't want to have a zillion more apps and this matches the way I use the net on my laptop anyway.

One thing that bugs me is the notification bell every time I start watching / listening, and then the notification sound when it stops.

I've checked through the android settings (version 13) but I can't find it. Is there a control in Firefox which is causing the notifications?

I need to build firefox android with an extension installed. I'm trying for ublock origin now but I'll use my own extension later. I do not plan to submit this or whatever,it'll be local. How can I do it?

Hello, I am having an issue when playing videos on youtube or youtube music on firefox (android). While I can unpause the video / music with the tab being in the background (different tab or even app is focused or even with locked screen), for some reason whenever I am currently focused on the youtube tab and leave it (lock screen, move to different tab or minimize the app to go to home screen/different app) the video will pause and I will need to unpause it again. Does anybody have a solution for this?

I have Firefox installed on my Android phone. I have some add ons, they are enabled, I can aecess them in settings. However, in order to use them, I need to access them in the Toolbar. For instance, I need to access the VPN in order to select a country and start it -- and later turn it off.

How can I show the tool bar, like on a computer, in order to do those things? That cannot be done in the listing of add ons installed (Manage your add ons). The VPN is enabled, but it can't be turned on in the Add On "Manage your add ons) list (That's the name of it on the computer, don't know what it might be on Android.)

I uninstalled the browser app and reinstalled it, and now I'm having multiple set up issues:

The search ribbon is on the bottom of the sreen and I would love it back on the top where it belongs.

The searches keep travelling through google and not firefox, despite searching in firefox for things.

Ublock origin extension is not correctly blocking websites.

I'm not very good with or patient with computers, so these simple things seem difficult to fix

I've created a discussion on Github, additionally at least Dark Reader seems affected as well (only uBlock Origin, Dark Reader & Singlefile are installed -- all Mozilla-verified addons).

At the time I can't uninstall the said non-functional addons.

Until recently, when I went to a site that I had saved login/pass, the fields would just autopopulate and i hit Login and it worked great. But recently instead of doing that a little "saved logins" popup comes up on the bottom of the screen and i have to click just right on it to get it to populate the fields. the popup will come up if you click on the password field, but then it only populates the password. so it's very persnickity and unintuitive and above all *slow*.

Is there a way to get it back to the much more convenient behavior? i literally switched from chrome to firefox because chrome started doing the same thing. i'm not ever going to have, for example, more than one login to my thermostat, and i don't want to have to struggle.

Hi! I recently migrated from Chrome to Firefox and everything is OK except for homepage shortcut icons. They load when I open the sites again but dissappear again after a day or two. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks a lot
