I'm using FF Android 64.01 with the uBlock Orign addon enabled. When I quit the app, it attempts to close but hangs on the message that it is clearing its cache. Often, the app then freezes and I have to manually shut it down. I have tried shutting down in safe mode and einstalling. Still.have the issue. Running Android 5.0.1 with a Samsung S5. Can anyone help? Thanks
