Is there a way to change the webpage background to something darker when the address bar is selected?

Hi, I'm on Android 9 (Pie) using Firefox 66.0.5. It's great, especially with dark night mode. However, whenever I select the address bar, my keyboard pops up and the webpage background is a light colored page with the Firefox logo on it (see screenshot).

I hate this. It blinds me at night when I'm using Firefox every time I select the address bar. Any way I can change the color or substitute it with a different background? Thanks!

Hi

I do recomend that you make sure that your copy of Firefox for Android is up to date to make sure that you have the latest security and stability updates. You can read more about how to update here.

With regrards to a totally dark theme, I recomend that you try Firefox Preview from the Google Play Store. It is an early look at what we are working on, so there may be one or two unresolved issues, but the dark theme is really nice (and also dark themes some web pages for you as well).

Hope you like it.
