Hi, I am using an open banking app that needs to connect to my bank account using consents.online. I believe that firefox is blocking a redirect which stops this process from working. I had to set Chrome as my default browser in order to set up this open banking app.

I think this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1327430 may be the issue, however, I can't find the settings described.

I have enabled the debug menu by clicking the firefox logo 5 times on the about android page, but can't find anything about blocking autorefresh in the settings menu.

Can anyone point me?

Hi

The article you mention is for Firefox on a desktop computer. Is the problem in Firefox on a desktop or in Firefox for Android?

What happens when you open the link in Firefox for Android?

Basically it can't redirect/refresh to open the relevant page. It then randomly started working after I had tried for several weeks. apparently there has been an ongoing issue. Not much you can do here tbh. We should close it, unless you have any idea what it could be.
