Firefox за Android Support Forum

Sometimes I want to close tabs to free up memory but I don't want to close the tab I'm currently using so I have to close all other tabs manually which is tedious.

Perhaps tapping and holding could bring up a menu that says "Close all other tabs" and/or "Close tabs before/after" like on desktop.

I have several tabs open. They're displayed vertically when I hit the tab button. When I close the bottom tab, the list moves down. The "Tab closed UNDO" notification immediately covers the bottom tab. I have to wait a few seconds for it to disappear. How do I get rid of this nuisance? its possible in about:config? i use Firefox Nighty

In the last couple of days I noticed that if I open Firefox on my Android phone and let's say open up a couple of new tabs, leave them there and close the app the next time I open up the app randomly some of the newly opened tabs disappear (they are there in the history as visited but the tab isn't open). Also in if I let's say use a tab that already have been open and use it to browse some website when I reopen the app the webpage loaded sometimes doesn't load the last visited site but one that was visited before that one (but still the actual site is in the history). For example let's say I open a tab and I go to site 1, then site 2, then site 3, close and reopen the app the tab I last used could randomly either be missing, instead of site 3 actually load site 1/2 or with equal chance actual work and load site 3 where I left off.

I've been reusing android firefox again lately and I noticed I would have a bunch of tabs at a time. Then I realized that it was because whenever I would click a shortcut from the search screen it would open the page in a new tab instead of staying on the current tab. Is there a way to change this?

I was wondering if there's any way to mute individual tabs in Firefox for android like you can in desktop versions. I can't seem to find an option for our but maybe I'm missing something.

If that's not possible, are there any plans yet to bring this feature to mobile? It's a useful one and one I wish I had a long time ago.

Closed tabs do not stay closed. If I close one or more tabs then close the app, closed tabs will be opened again when I open the app. Even clearing them from history doesn't stop Firefox from reopening closed tabs. This has been an issue since the update on late April - early May 2023. If I navigate to a new site then close the tab, the old site will be reopened on start up.

Version: FF Android 101.2.0 (plus other version stuff I can provide if needed), Android 12 Hi there,

I wanted to report an issue I've been experiencing on a popular news site, which seems to have been ongoing for several months now. I'm not sure if anyone else has been having this problem or if it's just me, but I thought it was worth bringing up.

The website in question is . https://alightmotion.net/

My expected behavior when browsing this site is to be able to open links and download files in the background while continuing to browse. However, I've noticed a few issues:

After opening a few tabs, Firefox for Android will hang for almost 30 seconds before doing a deep redraw/repaint of all tabs. It then functions normally until I try to open another background tab from the same website. During the hang, the tab interface continues to redraw, but the pages themselves do not repaint, and no tap events work. When the hang time ends, the pages appear to redraw from scratch, and the context pop-up for the third long-press appears on top of the tab I was looking at. This issue is 100% reproducible for me. Long-press fails when attempting to open the third background tab, but the repaint failure occurs earlier. There seems to be something toxic happening.

Interestingly, when I go back to my Android Home screen after experiencing this issue, there is a deep refresh/repaint, as if the phone has been swapped out or the garbage collector has run.

I have tried clearing all browsing data and using a guest account on my phone, but the issue persists. I don't have any add-ons installed, and neither Chrome nor Firefox Desktop exhibit this behavior. It seems to be specific to Firefox for Android.

Thank you for your help!

On Firefox Beta for Android, 113.0b9 (Build #2015947331).

I run 30-40 tabs. Sometimes when I switch to a tab it is no longer on the page I left it at. It is one page back in the tabs history. When I first switch to the tab the URL is briefly correct, and it's as of the Back button was hit. Forward is not an available option.

It does not consistently happen, or I would have better repro steps. Maybe it has to do with the tab being loaded out of memory?

This has been going on for a while now, a few months at least. I figured it would be fixed with subsequent updates but not yet, I have also had no luck searching for anyone else experiencing this bug.

On my android box I have lost the tabs view and don't see the + to add new tab. I do see the tab when I click on the 3 dots then I see the plus+ sign and when I click it it shows a new page but I want to get back to my previous tab but its all messed up. Please, help me get back to the regular firefox browser with tabs and the plus on the normal view. Thank You.

yOUR LATEST UPDATE HAS RUINED MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE USED TO BE GREAT FIREFOx. How can I get back the tabs with the "=" sign to add new tabs like it used to work before? I am having problems navigating and I have spent countless hours being very frustrated trying to fix the useless new tool bar view. Its just a waste of time. Please, help us fix this, I don't want to go wake and broke!

Whenever i search something on firefox it sometimes opens up a new tab or if i searched something up before it it will bring me to the previous search. This also happens when i open a link ill click on the link and it will open a brand new tab with the other tab still being there and i can't view the tab at all whenever i try to reinstall firefox the problem is still there, same with when i mess with settings. Ig someone could i help i would appreciate it!

Hi there! I'm kind of clueless with this problem of mine. Is there any way to set a homepage on android firefox, where I hit the home button on the left top corner and it is just going to take me to eg. google.ie? Same like on the dektop one? Also when i hit a link the mobile browser just keeps opening a new tab anytime I click on one of them? Hope it is understandable, english isn't my first language. thanks in advance for any help.

My firefox on samsung android phone just suddenly closed all of my tabs on its own which were waaaay over 100 tabs... no update or crash or anything.... i didn't close the tabs either.... just suddenly all gone.. and this is the 2nd time this happens within a year or 2... exact same thing! Unbelievable!! This is unacceptable!! If i did it by mistake then its my fault but all my tabs just totally disappeared suddenly on their own. What can i do? How do i know what caused this? How can i recover them? And no sync..

I don't wanna go to where the mangoes is, i want to download this image of mangoes Long click doesn't work, a click give an option to share or visit like wth this is dumb

I'd love to have a feature where I can choose to open all my synced tabs on a new device at once instead of having it as a list under synced, as it would look on the original device I have them opened on. Maybe have that option to open all tabs under synced.

Thanks, Judy
