I keep getting interrupted by pop up ads and videos that jump in the middle of work or calls I am on. How can I block pop ups?

Hi

There is not a pop up blocker in Firefox for Android, but I have had a look into this in a bit more depth and have found this which may help;

  • Type about:config in the address bar
  • Search for dom.disable_open_during_load and set it to false

To re-enable the pop up blocker, set dom.disable_open_during_load to true.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
