I'm using Firefox Focus on Android and for some reason the browser won't let me select from drop-down menus. This occurs on any site with a drop-down and continues even when I turn off all tracker blocking. How do I get drop-down menus to function?

Hi

The protections built into Firefox Focus can sometimes break some websites. If you are comfortable to do so, I would suggest going into the Firefox Focus menu and change the protections settings to be able to make that site work.

This still occurs when I disable all protections.

What device does this occur on? Android or iOS and what version? Have you updated Firefox Focus recently? What version of Firefox do you have?

I'm using a Galaxy S9 and I just recently downloaded Firefox Focus, which is version 8.0.23. My phone is running Android version 9. It seems that the browser won't allow any popups including dropdowns or date selections, for example. This is even when I disable all blocking and allow all cookies.

I have the same issue on a Galaxy Note 9. No dropdowns working at all.

I'm having the same issue on a Xiaomi A2 Lite.

I was testing a website I built and thought it was my code, then realised it was happening everywhere, hah.
