Firefox for Android Community Forum

Firefox Sync is not working appropriately insofar as, when I check Firefox on my Windows 11 desktop, I cannot see any tabs being synced from the Firefox app on my Android phone, even though both apps are logged into the same Firefox account and syncing open tabs is enabled on both machines.

However, when I check my phone, I can see all the tabs synced from my desktop. So, this seems to suggest that the sync process is working correctly on both desktop and mobile because I can actually see all the tabs that are open on my desktop, but I cannot see any of the tabs that are open my Android.

Everything is checked to sync on both the Windows and the Android Firefoxes.

Has anyone encountered a situation like this before, where sync is working appropriately, but one device seems to be refusing to upload specific data to the sync servers?

When I open a link in an app that uses an in-app browser view of Firefox (as opposed to sending me over to opening a new tab in Firefox) sometimes I will want to share that link to a social media app or text it to a friend. But when I tap the share button and choose an app to share with, it gives me null share content. In order to successfully share the link, I have to have the in-app version of Firefox open the page in the full Firefox app, then share it from there.

Hello everyone, I don't know where it comes from (my screen or moz update), but I have a problem I didn't have before. When I open the tabs menu, the option to close a tab by sliding it laterally is way too sensitive. When I slide vertically to navigate, I very often close one of my tabs. Very annoying. I checked in the parameters if there was an option to deactivate that (Especially that there are crosses on each tabs to close them. The lateral sliding is pretty useless). Is there an option in about/config to deactivate that parameter please ? Thanks in advance.

First Of All, Thank you for such a wonderful Browser. I have been using Firefox Mobile for a while now. Everything is perfect for my needs. Except for one thing.

Less Number Of Search Suggestions.

Firefox Mobile shows less number of search suggestions. So, I tried to check in Firefox Focus. I used Google as my Only Search Engine in both Firefox Mobile and Firefox Focus. I have enabled every search suggestions settings in both. While searching for anything in search bar, Firefox Mobile shows only 3 suggestions for my search whereas Firefox Focus shows 10 suggestions. Even Firefox Beta and Firefox Nightly shows 3 Suggestions. This is stopping me from using Firefox Mobile. I can't switch to Firefox Focus as there is no support for Extensions.

If it's a mistake from my side, Please, Suggest Me, what do I need to do to get Firefox Focus like Search Suggestions in Firefox Mobile.

If it's an issue in Firefox Mobile, Please, Fix it as soon as possible.

I want Firefox Focus like Search Suggestions on Firefox Mobile. I wish to Donate to Firefox Mobile and continue my journey with it. Please, Help Me With This.

Your Humbly Firefox Lover.

Hello

It appear that the option to never open link in external apps do not work the same when using Firefox from a link in the home screen.

- I configured Firefox to never open a link in an external app. - If I go to YouTube for example, I correctly do not get anymore the popup asking me to open the page in the YouTube application, so that is OK. - On the YouTube page, I use the menu of Firefox to click: Add to home screen. - Now when I use this home screen shortcut, I have the popup asking me to open the page in the YouTube application.

So it seems the setting is not use in this Home screen mode.

Can any of you have the same behavior, or am I missing something ?

Have a good day, thanks

PS: I'm using Firefox 128.0.2, on an Android 14 (Samsung Galaxy A54)

Is this Support Forum Dead or what ? It's been almost a Week since I asked a Question. Forget Solution, Atleast, A Reply would have been something.

If stated my issue in Play Store reviews, it says to ask my question in this Support Forum.

Is my question - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1453029 even visible to you all or not ?

I loved everything in Firefox Mobile except for this above stated issue. I had plans to even Donate to Firefox if this issue had been resolved. It's not even a big issue, just apply a fix from Firefox Focus to Firefox Mobile. Is it too much to ask ?

I know your volunteers are Mozilla users just like me, who take the time out of their day to help. But, still, No Reply for a Week ?

Okay. I think doing anything or waiting for replies and helps any further is waste of time. This might be the reason Chrome is still way better.

Goodbye Firefox.

No Thank You.

Firefox on Android has a "Collections" option,it is convenient displaying some websites on the startup page.But "Collections" seems not to be synced.It might be more useful if add the option to Sync List. Or it can be used as a specific section of the bookmark (but displayed on the startup page), similar to the bookmarks toolbar on PC. This makes it possible to sync frequently useful websites on both mobile and PC devices. Thank you for reading this.

There seems to be little rhyme or reason to it but it crashes at random. There do seem to be sites that it doesn't crash on, these being this site, archive of our own, and google's search page. This started yesterday after clicking a Google link. Idk if an update is what's causing crashes or what.
