Firefox for Android Support Forum

I have consistently hacked for years not understanding how or why. Today I learned about DNS over http and realized this must be a major factor. How do I change the dns over http on the mobile app.

Hello,

This morning, I have accidentally close all my tabs (60+ tabs, which were open for more than 5+ years), while I wanted to reopen a recently closed tab. I suppose that this mistake was due to the sensitivity of the touch screen, since both option are next to each other in the menu.

I see multiple problems here: - There was no dialog asking me if I wanted to close all my tabs. While on Desktop this dialog exists. So for a long time I had no clue what just happened. - As I remember, Firefox did not gave me the opportunity to undo my action.

Now, the question is: How can I reopen all my closed tabs ? The menu "Recently closed tabs" have only 10 items, and those do not belong to the 60+ tabs that have been closed.

Is there a way to reopen all the tabs that I accidentally closed (I do not use Firefox Sync) ?

Thanks in advance

Hello

I know that I have had that option a long time ago and I want it back . I could save my website settings in a cloud and than if I needed I could backup them.

Back up Firefox settings in Tor Browser Thank you

Hi,

I'm looking for a trick to prevent Firefox mobile to force screen orientation to landscape mode when playing a video in fullscreen mode.

This is an old complaint (see this 2018 bug) but at the time there was a key in about:config to change the behavior ("media.videocontrols.lock-video-orientation").

Since "media.videocontrols.lock-video-orientation" is now useless (according to this bug) I'm clueless.

Thanks in advance if you have any.

Firefox Mobile suggests passwords based on TLD. On desktop version, we can go to `about:config` and set `signon.includeOtherSubdomainsInLookup = false` to only suggest the exact subdomain.

How can we achieve this on Firefox for Android?

I have noticed that mobile browsers (including Firefox Mobile) don't seem to give you the option to clear cookies and other website data on close while preserving website info/cookies of sites you want to keep logged into.

Is this a feature that will eventually be implemented in Firefox? Or is there some kind of limitation in Android/iOS that makes implementing this not possible or tricky?

Kinda just throwing this out here. I have over 5 thousands tabs open on mobile. If I had to wager a guess I'd say I have at least 10,000 if not 20,000. I did actually count to the 5,000 for certain. My main question is I just wanna know if there is a way to definitively know how many I have. I know on the desktop version you can and I have done so, but that wont tell you how many are open on mobile. When ever I try to share all tabs my firefox immediately crashes, all the tabs will reopen afterwards. I just really wanna know how many tabs I have so I write down the number and get to closing them. Thank you for reading.

Even though Recently Visited is turned off I have lots and lots of recently visited sites showing up on my homepage. I have to manually remove them to clear the homepage. How do I make it stop showing all this clutter?

It happens on both me and my girlfriends phones, so I guess either something is wrong with the setting or it doesn't do what I think it is supposed to do.

See screenshots for example.

Problem: keyboard covers text area in chat and scroll does not function. In a chat with customer service usually, the text I am writing does not appear, it is behind the keyboard and scroll is frozen. I have to close the keyboard to see the text, also scroll works. Then I click on my partially filled text box, keyboard comes back covering it, no scroll. Repeat. Pixel 6, FF for Android, T-mo, Ad-Guard only addon, everything updated, see attached.

I am on Android Firefox and I accidentally chose "Always" on the pop-up asking where I want my downloaded items to go. I want to change it because where the files are now sent is inconvenient at best but i cannot find such an option to change my preference in either the Firefox settings bar nor my phone's device settings.

Kindly add 'mouse, trackpad' options. It will be very helpful to users . Other browser like 'Puffin' they have these options. I'm already commented in Play Store review. In some Career related websites, some of the functions only working with ' mouse pointer/ cursor clicks ' . So kindly add these options . Iam attaching examples of 'Puffin browser's ' mouse/ trackpad options. Please add these functions like 'Puffin browser' .

Kindly ignore my grammatical errors.

I like using fingerprint to unlock my mobile and I can manage the risks linked to the weaknesses of the method.

BUT I find very dangerous to be able to access all my passwords using my finger. My finger could be used when I am asleep for example and the person would be able to see and copy all the passwords he wants while I am sleeping. I would even not notice he copied anything when I wake up.

When I want to see a password I am proposed to use PIN AND fingerprint. So unless there is a way to disable unlocking the passwords with the fingerprint, I am forced to disable fingerprint to unlock my mobile which is annoying.

My question is -- How do I disable fingerprint for accessing my passwords without removing fingerprint globally ?

I am trying to set the home page on my Samsung S21 with android v13 and firefox v117. I cannot find any means for setting the home page. The customize homepage in the top (3 button) menu has no option for setting a different home page.

The homepage option under settings gives you exactly the same options as above.

The customize option under settings applies only to the theme and has no options for managing the home page.

Unfortunately every version of firefox is different and all the instructions I have found apply to different versions of firefox than the one I am using.
