Firefox maka Android Community Forum

How can I remove "Firefox suggests" URLs from the address/search bar on Android? I found the help article "Firefox Suggest for Mobile" (last updated 4/22/24) but when I follow its directions, I only see the first 3 toggleable options. "Suggestions from Firefox" and "Suggestions from sponsors" don't appear at all. The suggested URLs are frequently sites I have never been to and never want to go to, and their appearance is extremely irritating. Attached is a screenshot of the settings page as it appears to me, with only 3 options.

Today all my Tabs on Firefox suddenly disappeared/ got closed. Usually they were saved and opened automatically. This worked well for years. Is there any technique to reconstruct them?

Is there a way to get a generated password when Firefox does not suggest one?

For sites where Firefox has saved credentials it is suggesting new passwords, but when I try to create an account on https://www.acehardware.com/user/login it is not suggesting a password in the password field. An alternative method would be helpful.

When expanding the comments in an arstechica.com article with Firefox settings/accessibility/automatic font sizing switched on, frequently the font used is very large. A page refresh usually fixes the problem and the font return to the expected size.

I have also seen the same problem at www.theguardian.com.

I do not see this problem if automatic font sizing switched off.

I've attached 2 screenshots. In the example with the larger font, I had scrolled to the bottom of the article and clicked on the comments button to open the comments, then took the screenshot. Then I refreshed the page and took another screenshot.

Is this a known problem?

I'm using a pixel 8. Firefox is my default browser. I noticed safe search was suddenly locked on my phone. I went to search to try and trouble shoorlt and Firefox was gone from my phone! I reinstalled it. The next day it was uninstalled again. My phone was also really glitchy and a few apps stopped working. I wouldn't uninstall Firefox as it's my go-to browser. My bookmarks came back but lost all my dlsabed passwords. Anyone have Firefox randomly uninstall itself?

When you have the 'Open links in apps' setting turned on, clicking a link will open the app but also open the link in browser as well. This is annoying because if I'm searching for something and switching back to the browser, I have to click back every time to go back to the search results.

- This is a problem on Firefox Beta for Android - I have a Pixel 8a - It works fine on standard Firefox for Android - It is not specific to one app - The open in app part works fine. It's just the browser shouldn't also go to the website at the same time.

The ' add home screen ' function not working. If i click on it than the the function is not working. It is not adding the webpage to home screen. Or sometimes this function is very useful to install the webpage in our mobile but its not working. Please fix this.

The syncing feature of my Mozilla browser is having trouble l confirming that my bookmarks, etc. have been completely synced. Often times i do not receive any confirmation of this when syncing or the confirmation is significantly delayed.

Dzień dobry, Dziękujemy za zgłoszenie.

Przepraszamy za niedogodności związane z długim czasem oczekiwania na odpowiedź.

Podczas sprawdzania pliku dziennika odkryliśmy, że aplikacja org.mozilla.firefox ma błąd braku pamięci, przez co system wymagał miękkiego resetu w celu zoptymalizowania aplikacji. Jest to nietypowe zachowanie aplikacji i musi zostać wykryte przez właściciela aplikacji. Jest to więc problem z aplikacją i powinien zostać sprawdzony przez producenta aplikacji.

Pozdrawiam, Zespół Samsung Members

After software update why doesn't samsung ask for soft reset to optimize apps And when apps have problems working I have to restart and then app optimization turns on. And then everything works very well again. I hope you can fix this

Good day, Thanks for reporting.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the long response time.

While checking the log file, we found that the application org.mozilla.firefox has an out of memory error, which required a soft reset of the system to optimize the application. This is an unusual application behavior and needs to be detected by the application owner. So, this is an application issue and should be investigated by the application developer.

Best regards, Samsung Members Team

Hello

I have a small niche non critical issue with setting my own search engine in the FF mobile app. Looks like it's doing a test to see if the URL is reachable, but gets rejected because of authentication.

It did not prompt for credentials, just immediately fails which prevented me from setting it.. Now I am self hosting a SearXNG search engine behind a reverse proxy (Nginx) with basic HTTP authentication, so I do have the power to disable it for a minute just to set the engine correctly and re-enabling it again.. After that, when trying to search for something after a session ends, it did prompt me for credentials and worked pretty well after that!

So see, this is very niche, but do prevented me from setting my own engine. It will be a show stopper for those who want to use such engine (with any authentication) but do not self host it...

Thanks a bunch Roy

I can't share any files, but rather than saving to my downloads folder, I've found the app is downloading to the folder I had intended to move the files to. The issue is that the naming structure of the files is based on the week/day. So if it's Monday of the first week of the month, it would be Mon-1. When downloading another Mon-1 to the downloads folder, I'd get Mon-1(1), which is exactly what I want. When I use my file browser to move them, it also renames the new file to Mon-1(1), perfect. If I download Mon-1 and this issue occurs, Mon-1 will overwrite the existing Mon-1 in my reports folder. Now I have reports from all different months in my January section with January just about wiped from my phone. I have changed everything but Firefox and the phone and the issue still occurs, so I can only assume it's either an android issue or a Firefox issue.

Bear with me please.

So, just using "default" profile and no associated email, i accidentally pressed the passwords menu. This opens an unlock screen that, i think is supposed to look exactly like the stock Android one but it is different. It prompts for a pin, which i didnt want to provide, but wouldnt allow me to back a page using 3 button back arrow (havent tested with gestures though) . SO i input enough incorrect pin codes. It rate limits you after about 5 failed attempts. Except i found if i repeatedly tap the back button quickly, the rate limit is instantly bypassed again immediately and i can continue indefinately until i guess the pin...

Doesnt inspire much confidence yet.. but it's getting there!

I have added two of my accounts to my Firefox on my Android device. Whenever I open the app and search something. It uses my backup account and not my main. I can tap on my Google account picture in the top right and switch accounts, which works temporarily. But as soon as I close the app the next time I search, it reverts to the backup account.

Is there a way to change this? Do I need to reset the app completely?
