Hi there, On Android 8.0 Firefox 61.0 Beta seem not to support accessible keyboard shortcuts any longer. E.g. on Firefox 60 on a website, pressing letter "E" jumps to next edit field, pressing "L" takes me to the next link. Pressing "B" takes me to the next button. The Bluetooth keyboard is Logitech K 380. Phone model Moto X 4 Global version running Android 8.0 with April security patches currently. Could I find a solution on about:config settings perhaps? Reinstalling the browser or resetting BT keyboard did not help this time. Thank you for Your help and support.

Hi, I know now very preliminary, why this problem had been caused. At least on Android 8.0 it seems, that especially after the launch of former Talkback, currently Google Accessibility Suite, the handling of key shortcuts inserted through a Bluetooth keyboard has changed. Firefox 61 Beta among other browsers has support for accessible keys but they are inserted differently. On Talkback settings, I chose shortcuts, and from there I changed key mapping as "Default". Now, e.g. by pressing alt and l it takes me to the next link and soforth. However, please note, that I am not sure, whether this only concerns LG Bluetooth keyboards of only Android 8.0. In any case, this is not a very comfortable change. This makes daily browsing more complicated, as earlier accessible keys were much more efficient.
