I've recently noticed that when I download something off of the app, whether it's a PDF or an image, I'm now directed to the apps download page. No longer does the app allow my phone, Samsung Galaxy S5, to have a window pop up, asking me which app I'd like to view my download on.

In addition, when I've clicked on whatever I've downloaded through the apps download page, the item doesn't open.

Is this a bUG within the Firefox app or no? If it's not, what do I need to do to fix it?

Thank you.

HI Joke_Insurance, Thank you for your question. At this time after updating version 33 if you swipe down and tap on the download it should ask you. If you tap on the Firefox Menu > Tools > downloads it will also ask.

If you tap on Page Settings, is there anything stored?
