Firefox kwa Android Community Forum

I do not have this problem on Firefox for desktop, but on Firefox for mobile, Firefox will suggest commercial sites that I've never visited nor bookmarked. This gets in the way of sites that I visit regularly.

For example, I visit Discord through the Firefox mobile app daily. But when I manually enter "d-i-s" into the address bar, it suggests discovercard(dot)com. I have confirmed that this url does not exist in my history or bookmarks, so I cannot delete it from either place. I have checked this on desktop, as well.

The consequence is that I have to manually type out almost the entire discord url because Firefox does not pivot to the correct url that I visit daily until I have written the "r" where it predicts "v".

I cannot find any place within Firefox mobile settings to disable these suggestions. Is there any way to do so?

Hi all.. I find that other apps regularly prompt me to "unlock Firefox" when I get to a point in them that requires keyboard input. I attach a screenshot of the problem, one in Bluemail and one in MS Excel. I am unable to remove the prompt - by a long press or short - until I type some characters, often a number of characters. Then the prompt disappears. The keyboard is SwiftKey, and I have asked them but they say it's not them. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance. P

I have the current Android Firefox installed, my homepage setting has 'recently visited' UNCHECKED, but the homepage is adding all my recently visited pages! Swipe sideways to show even more of them. This is a privacy issue as well as just a bug. Please fix this urgently.

I've also put this on my review on Play store as I consider it something that needs attention...

I have set mine to "Ask every time" and yet it doesn't .... it just says Camera Access needed. Go to Android Settings, tap permissions and tap allow.

Why doesn't it ask ?

I typed https://www.aboutcivil.org/hydraulic-penstock in Mozilla Firefox Site displayed msg "Please, enable ads on this site. By using ad-blocking software, you're depriving this site of revenue that is needed to keep it free and current. Thank you."

I typed https://www.aboutcivil.org/hydraulic-penstock in Chrome. Site displayed ads

I would like to see the ads for that site in Mozilla Firefox. Please help

Sometimes sites that I CLICKED on say that my browser needs cookies enabled

How do I do that? I did research but nothing 

FIREFOX settings doesn't show this option. Any help is appreciated Or I may have to use another browser that will. Thank you

Why is it that when I type in part of an url in firefox search, for example "surf" when I'm wanting to visit r/surf, firefox suggests threads I viewed a single time rather than r/surf that I view multiple times per day?

You can see in chrome it behaves more like you would expect.

Sometimes plain r/surfing will be there but most of the time not, it's just random threads I viewed a single time.

There doesn't seem to be any combination of search settings that makes it suggest more frequently viewed sites

To unlock Firefox for Android the same password is needed as to unlock my mobile phone. On my laptop I can use two different passwords. So, if someone finds out the password for my phone, they automatically have access to my Firefox passwords as well. That feels only half secure. How can I use two different passwords in Firefox for Windows , like on my laptop?

Per the archived post below from 2023, when can we expect this issue to actually be addressed? It has been nearly two years and this is still occurring frequently. In fact, it happened to be as I signed up here to post this.

Thank you so very much.

I use a TTS extention pretty much daily while I do other things so either I have it running in the background while I'm elsewhere on my phone or just away from my phone and it'll turn off the screen. Unless my phone is on charge it force closes the extention after about 3 minutes or so of being out of FF. The app and extention are both optimized so I'm not sure what else there is to do from my end.

I read the newspaper on 2 tablets and phone. All are Samsung. The phone is latest s25 and tablets S5e. All the apps are up to date along with the operating systems. Picking a story to read and scrolling through it I eventually go 'back' to main page front. On Firefox this doesn't happen. The button action takes 4-6 presses, then back to main page. This occurs on all 3 devices. I tried other news websites (ABC, CBS) to replicate problem, but *did not* have this issue. Not a big deal but I think you should know.

Hello. It's a known issue already, but i will share it once again.

When i switch to a different app and then come back to Firefox, the tabs always reload and any process or pending task is lost.

That's a huge problem because it's impossible to copy and paste codes from an authenticator, fill any text to a form or simply continue watching a paused video. The tab simply reload and you lose everything.

It's very annoying because it doesn't happen to any other browser. I'm a longterm user of Firefox for many years, but this is my only complain.

Dear developers, please do something to fix this issue.

Thank you !

Got a letter from angeltree prison fellowship take picture and it pulls up the bar code went to redeem it said invalid Walmart said I shouldve got a 4 digit pin confirmation email with the pin I did not now 75 dollars can't even use use them

how do i remove all this new tab seach and search in this time garbage and stupid share crap, its annoying as hell i dont use that garbage and all it does is fill up my used to be clean and neat top of my screen i only need my drop down menu , all this new crap i dont want or use and never will i need all of it gone,not hidden !!! it needs to go period !!!! absolutely no use only pisses me off and I don't want it in my drop down menu either everything I need is in my drop down menu don't need or want anything else , I understand other people want things like that why can't you make them add-ons so if they want it they can add it to there computer and if someone does not want it they don't have to add it nor do they have those it or they don't have to waste time only to find out they are stuck with that new garbage that makes shit harder for them and completely passes them off where they only want to knock the person teeth out put put it on there computer ! why would you want to create more hate in this world by put shit on a computer that someone does not want and believe me the hate you create is very real ! and people can only carry so much hate before people snap and you see those who snap on the news and people can't understand why they snap its because people fuck with there reality ! someday that person might just snap because of something they can't remove from there computer that passes them off ! you people need to think about that shit none of you even think about stuff like that ! because you could be the person that causes it and all you had to do to make it not happen is make any new idea you want to add make it the person who owns the computer their choice if they want it on there computer or not , by giving the owner the choice you could save somebody's life many times over just by making it a choice !!! hopefully you people think about it because one day you could be the one who gets blamed for beening the reason the person snapped and you go to jail !
