I have an iPhone 6s running the latest iOS.

When I try to go to the Flickr website, the Firefox app loads the Flickr app instead of taking me to the Flickr homepage(there are certain details the main page lists that the app does not).

How do I stop this automatic re-direct to the Flickr app?

Thanks much!

Currently there is not an option to request the desktop site instead. However I did find a tricky work around.

  1. Open up flickr.com and tap on the help forum all the way at the bottom of the home page
  2. The desktop looking version of the site will load. Then choose one of the streams to explore. Bookmark it
  3. In the future access the bookmarked version so that you are not redirected.

Please stay tuned for options such as this and also please provide feedback we're always looking for ways to improve Firefox for iOS.

Thank you for giving Firefox for iOS a try!
