When I type a search topic into the search bar on the Fx home page (Android Firefox) ".com" is automatically added to the end of the search topic. For example, if I type "cars" into the search bar it shows "cars.com" in the search bar. I tried changing the search engine in Fx settings but it does the same thing regardless of which search engine I'm using.
