Firefox for iOS Community Forum

Dear Firefox Team,

I am writing to propose an enhancement for your iOS and Android, as well as desktop applications, that would greatly benefit users with visual impairments. It would also benefit anyone who is aware that they are in need of supplementary assistance in the absorption of information and knowledge, such as myself (for context; I am an adult with autism and ADHD). Specifically, I suggest adding an accessibility feature that provides verbal dictation of the text on the phone. This addition would significantly improve the experience for users with limited or no sight or potentially even other types of disabilities.

As a friendly neighborhood computer consultant, I recommend Firefox as the default browser to my friends and family because of its strong commitment to privacy. Additionally, a partnership with DuckDuckGo could further underscore your dedication to user privacy.

I appreciate your consideration of these suggestions and look forward to seeing your continued innovation and reaction to my notes. Enhancing accessibility features not only supports inclusivity but could also attract new users and potentially open up advertising opportunities. I am eager to share more ideas in the future and would be delighted to contribute to your mission in any way possible.

Best regards,

Seth Noreman [edited phone# from public community support forum]

P.S. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me. I am also available to help create promotional materials or tutorial videos on how to use these accessibility features, leveraging my background in digital art and my unique perspective as an adult with autism.

Thank you for your time.

Forgive me if I selected the wrong question category, I don’t know which one describes my problem best.

As my subject suggests, I am unable to upload photos to sites anymore and have to switch to a different browser if I need to do so.

This seems to happen with all sites. On TikTok.com I can upload cover photos, but not videos, if that’s of any importance.

This is really annoying since Firefox is my main browser and I absolutely adore it, so suddenly not being able to upload photos makes it so that I have to switch to a different browser that has various other problems.

Hi. I use LastPass as a password manager. I recently did Firefox updates and extension uploads across all my devices. Since then I have encountered the following problem with setting up new logins in LastPass, but their support believe the issue is a Firefox related. I have two emails. I want to use only one as the default username for new LastPass saved logins. Currently the default email address being autofilled is the wrong one of the two email addresses i use. How do I change this to my other email address? Thanks

When I try to sync and save from a firebox tab I get an error message that says it didn’t work and asks to reload. I try to reload and it doesn’t reload but keeps giving me the same error. I am trying to sync to my iPhone 15. Please help and thank you

As Google’s search features get more and more anti-user, it is more important than ever to be able to add the “&UDM=14” after receiving their newly formatted, pathetic excuse for results.

Something has recently changed that makes this impossible.

When on a Google search result page, attempt to edit the URL only allow editing the search query. There is already a location for this, the query field.

Why am I getting an error for newsmax.com telling me that there is a security problem. It will not let me connect. This is a regular occurrence. I just got through not being able to connect to x.com, and now this. It is only this browser.

I tried to add an event to my calendar, but clicking “done” doesn’t do anything. When I tried to do the same on Safari, there’s a button labeled “add to calendar” that actually adds the event.

I tried to replicate this on my iPad to see if it has to do with screen dimensions, but while the lower edge of the screen is clear, there’s no option to add to the calendar.

Images attached are of adding event on Firefox, then safari on iOS, then adding event on Firefox using iPadOS in both horizontal and vertical orientations.

all of a sudden firefox is so slow in opening webpages.... to not opening at all. how can i fix this? why is it happening. have used firefox for 15 years now without any problem need help

When attempting to insert account/password into a website, the Firefox would popup, ask for the iOS passcode, popup the list of matching accounts then immediately closed that popup and create a blank tab.

This also happened when trying an alternative but similar method with "Use saved password".

Infuriating.

Difficult to reaearch this.

Happens on numerous websites, most recently at Alternative To dot net.
