This is an Microsoft Bing User Who Doesn't Use Google, Here I Had already Using Microsoft Edge, But Still I Was In Search Of an Non Chromium Browser and I got this, here I had to set my default search engine to Bing but it restores To Google Every Time I reboot my device or when the app crashes or while entering the app and also Bing Homepage Freezes Everytime I select the search bar. FIX THIS, PLEASE.

Hi

If you open the Firefox for Android menu and select Settings then Search, are you able to share a screenshot of this screen?

Hello there! It sounds like you're having a bit of trouble with your search engine settings in Firefox for Android. I totally get how frustrating it can be when things don't work as expected. Let's see if we can help you out. It seems like your default search engine is switching back to Google, even though you prefer Bing. This might be due to some settings or app behavior. To fix this, try clearing the app's cache and data. You can do this by going to your device's Settings > Apps > Firefox > Storage > Clear cache and Clear data. Then, open Firefox again, set Bing as your default search engine, and see if it sticks this time. Also, make sure you're using the latest version of Firefox from the Play Store.
