Firefox for Android Community Forum

After activation of app, homepage appears with search bar AND keyboard, but no 3 vertical dot menu. The keyboard never used to appear until you hit the search bar. This has only happened recently and is a pain. Solution is to hit mobile's backup key.

136.0.2 (Build #2016079799)

Latest version (version above) on Android appears to have issues on startup of displaying shortcuts on the homepage. It doesn't initially display them, but if I select the private browsing symbol, then select it again to return to normal browsing, the shortcuts reappear. Then when I start Firefox later, having closed it down for a while, the same issue occurs.

Also, from not showing the homepage icons, clicking the '0' and clicking the '+' to add a new tab displays the icons.

Firefox used to start up and display the shortcuts without having to go through the above process.

I've tried various settings for the homepage but none resolve this.

Anyone having the same issue?

Screenshots attached.

Is it possible to create a bookmark folder in Firefox for Android that is synced (safety reasons) but it's the default folder for bookmarks on Android? Let me give you an example: I want to have in my bookmarks on my smartphone in a very accessible way, bookmarks for some package tracking websites, like UPS, SkyPostal, etc., but they don't need to be so easily accessible on my desktop. So I still want to sync, something like "Mobile Bookmarks", and view on my desktop when I need, but this is the default bookmark folder just for the mobile. Also I need to be able to duplicate bookmark entries, because the same bookmark, let's say SkyPostal, would be in two different places, an easy item on mobile but a harder to find item on desktop.

I've noticed some occasional slowdowns and connectivity issues while using Firefox for Android, especially when loading media-heavy websites or switching between tabs. Are there any known performance optimizations or settings I can tweak to improve speed and network stability?

By mistake I deleted my android firefox browser on mobile so after re- downloading it and bcz I have an account I was able to my tabs on synchronized tabs option but I had deleted the firefox browser obviously the number of tab will be zero. My question is how can I open my all tabs that are on synchronized tabs? Please help me because I can't manually open all tabs as I had opened infinity ♾️ tabs.

So by mistake I deleted my firefox browser from mobile and then I re downloaded it but because I have an account My all tabs were synchronized. So how can I reopen all this synchronized tabs from mobile or is there any other option?

I love Firefox for Android, but I wish there was an option button for automatically saving shortcuts, which when turned on or off, would not automatically save the shortcuts on the home screen. Please provide such an option.

I have a Gmail account and in my sent items I am replying to a message that I sent to the same sender as I compose it all is good but when I attach a file it closes and takes me back to the sent item folder.

Does Mozilla offer somewhere to download older versions of Firefox for Android? I've had problems since November when I got this phone and downloaded the latest version of Firefox and every update since with no fix. I'm not able to view comments or make a comment on YouTube. Other people here have the same problem. I've disabled add-ons, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. There's also an annoying Firefox pop-up when viewing videos in full screen that can be fixed by adjusting a setting in about:config but I've just discovered about: config has been removed!!! 90% of my internet usage is YouTube using Firefox for Android, so the problems are significant to me. An older version works perfectly on my older phone and would like that version on my new phone. Is there a way I can do this? Thank you.

Hi there,

I've been using Firefox on mobile to read health blogs during meal planning. Recently, I’ve been reading about diet and blood sugar—especially topics like grits and diabetes.

I came across this article I wanted to keep open for reference:

However, Firefox Mobile doesn’t seem to save my tabs when I close the app. I’ve already enabled the "Restore previous session" setting, but it still clears out. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Also, if there’s a better way to bookmark or auto-save articles for offline reading, I’d love tips!

Thanks in advance.
