I can no longer open Firefox from the share sheet on my iPad or iPhone (both running iPadOS/iOS 18.2). I tap on the Firefox icon in the share sheet in some other app and nothing happens. Interestingly if I tap on Firefox Focus (v133.0) instead of Firefox (v133.3) in the share sheet then Focus opens fine.

I'm not sure if this problem is related to iOS/iPadOS 18.2 or Firefox 133.3 as they came out close together and I didn't notice the problem until I was running both. Prior to upgrading Firefox and iPadOS/iOS share sheet launching was working fine.

I tested this on another iPhone, running iOS 18.2 and Firefox 133.2, and found it has the same problem. So it's not related to the Firefox 133.3 update. It's either iOS 18.2 or maybe I've had the problem longer than I thought and didn't realise it. 🤷‍♂️

Helpful?
