stop filling form field on android

I'm running Firefox 35.0 on an Asus Transformer TF701T tablet. When I have on-line forms fill out, Firefox throws up a list of options to choose from to fill in the field. A example of this is a name field - Firefox will pop up a list of names to select from. I don't need ALL the names it lists. How can I delete the ones I don't want? I found out how to do it on Firefox for desktop, but not android. Please help as this is getting frustrating.

Hey KJ,

Sorry for the frustration. If you like, you can clear the list of form field suggestions by following these instructions: Clear your browsing history and other personal data on Firefox for Android

Hope that helps!

> How can I delete the ones I don't want?

(EDIT: This has been fixed. See below.)

Sadly, while this is easy to do on Firefox for the desktop, Firefox on Android does not allow you to delete specific entries. If you follow Jayelbe's device and delete all form and search history, note that you can use Firefox sync to sync back the items which were on your desktop browser.

I have the same question here: How can I delete autocomplete entries for forms?

As long as Firefox for Android is up to date we recently added the ability to swipe left or right to remove autocomplete entries. Though If sync is set up I believe that it will pull down the old data again.

That's awesome! It works for me, thanks!
