I recently changed my password on a gmail account, and tried to change my password in settings on my iphone. When in the settings for email, I was not able to directly enter the new password in the "re-enter password" field, but instead I got the message that the "settings" wants to use google.com to sign in. Apparently the only option is to "continue" and when I do so, it says Google can't sign me in because my browser (firefox) does not support JavaScript or has it turned off. How do I turn on JavaScript or otherwise circumvent this problem? I have not found another way to get my password updated on my iphone. I tried changing my default browser to Safari to see if I could get it to work but that did not help. i have used firefox for years on my iphone with no gmail problems.

Hi

What level of enhanced tracking protection do you have set in Firefox for iOS?
