I uninstalled the app and re installed it after that there is no icon on the app drawer nor in the home screen. I have to open the app every time through play store. I have attempted to fix it myself by uninstalling and re installing to thinking its temporary a glitch but icon stills doesn't appear anywhere. It doesn't even get shown in app drawer search results when i search for Firefox. I have further cleared device cache using builtin cleaner app provided within the device. Also restarted my device nothing worked

Greetings FF Community, New Samsung Galaxy S9 Ultra tablet running FF ver 127.02 on Android 14. Have no option to customize toolbar or even add the File Menu to the top of Firefox as other resources in Firefox indicate. Using a Finite bluetooth keyboard, ALT key does nothing, using bluetooth mouse right click on empty space in address bar - no context menu appears, enabled in mouse settings. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Screen shots below of laptop and S9 Ultra. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Using the latest version (127.0.2; installed from Play store today, on a fresh Android install), any non-English site I visit I get the nagging popup asking me if I want to translate.

'Never translate this site' works, and 'Never translate Dutch' (and presumably other languages as well) too (so at least I can workaround it, but 'Always offer to translate' off will still nag about translating sites, so is bugged.

And I still have the translate button taking up space in the URL bar. How do I remove it?

I'm experiencing an issue where the highlighted text in Wikipedia article previews on Firefox for Android overlaps with other text, making it difficult to read. This happens consistently when I search for terms on Wikipedia within the Firefox app.

Steps to Reproduce:

* Open Firefox for Android.
* Search for any term on Wikipedia using the search bar.
* Observe the article previews in the search results.
* Notice how the highlighted text overlaps with other text, making it unreadable.

Expected Behavior: The highlighted text should be displayed clearly and not overlap with other text elements in the article preview.

Device Information:

* Device: Moto Edge 50 Fusion 
* Android version: 14
* Firefox version: 127.0.2

Additional information: I'm using extensions such as uBlock origin, Dark reader, Ghostery tracker and Privacy badger

Please investigate and resolve this rendering issue to improve the readability of Wikipedia article previews in Firefox for Android.

I think it would be more convenient if the list of inactive tabs opened in portions, starting with the newest ones, with an option to open the whole list in case someone needs that. That would allow for better performance and reduce the time spent scrolling to the end of the list

I've got a new phone and again Firefox on Android is suggesting sites in the address bar I've never been to. I visited bostours.com.au and Webmd com, a healthcare website is one and every time I install Firefox on a phone this site appears as a suggestion. Travel and Tours vs Healthcare; what is the connection? NationalGeographic com is another and there are others as well. I've never been to these sites on either phone. They aren't being synched from elsewhere as sites I've been to aren't being suggested like bostours

The nine dots that appears on most Google pages to allow for choosing an app does nothing. It does work with the Samsung browser. This is reason that I have not changed to Firefox many years ago. I was hoping that it would work by now. Is there a change in the settings for Firefox that would allow this to work? If there isn't, I guess that I am stuck using the Samsung browser, as I don't like the Chrome browser.
