I’ve updated to IOS Firefox version 127.0 I lost a good chunk of tabs in the private browsing section after this update removed the ability to leave private browsing tabs open after exiting the app. Scrolling down to the privacy section of the settings for my application showed me that the button/prompt for that setting was removed outright. If this was an intentional decision, it should have been noted in the update/change logs in preview of the IOS app store. I don’t agree personally with this change, but it happened regardless.

Hello,

is there a field planned for firefox focus where you can enter the autocomplete url for search engines? It just says my search engine doesnt support autocompletion, but there's an official link by kagi itself, just nowhere to put it. https://kagi.com/api/autosuggest?q=%s

I keep running into this bug where, on the odd occasion I am trying to download a file and the download occurs slow sometimes from the server's end, I might start a download of the same file twice. Then when one finishes downloading, if I press cancel on the ongoing download, it deletes the other downloaded file from my storage. This probably happens because the files are named the exact same but cancelling a downloading file should not delete an already downloaded, different file.

I was using foxfilter extension on spin browser in android and spin uses Firefox at it's core . The extension used to work well until some point in the past and suddenly it stopped working . I reached out to foxfilter support and they told Firefox stopped supporting some extensions on Android and thus the issue . Is there anyway you could start supporting foxfilter on firefox Android or can i use an olderversion of firefox on Android to get foxfilter working . If so could you guide me how to get that version installed ?

I own an S23 and I'd like to know if there's a way to make the browser suggestions fit on the screen. I've added two images to help explain what's going on. The first image shows Firefox, where the suggestion doesn't fit on the screen, whereas on Brave, if the suggestion is too long, it adjusts to the space. Thanks.

After attempting to save about 100+ Tabs on a window frustratingly by hand, I would like to request a way to group Tabs, be able to save them to sessions and have "Select all" when holding a tab for options.

I hope someone or some of the devs can see this, because the lack of support is quite vexing, enough to switch to another browser for good, if it wasn't for the ad-free browsing

Hi Firefox Developer Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to suggest a feature that I believe would enhance user experience: the option to use custom wallpapers or backgrounds in Firefox. Having the ability to personalize the browser with custom images would make it more appealing and engaging for users. Could you consider implementing this feature in a future update?

Thank you for your hard work and dedication to improving Firefox.

I'm wondering why FF doesn't have something built into the browser that will resize text when you zoom in. Right now, if I zoom in on text, it DOES get larger, but then it also goes outside the edges of the browser so that I have to constantly scroll left and right to read the article I did come across an add on, but come on. This is something basic that should be build into the browser:

On my Desktop, Firefox has an option, something like "When opening a link in a new tab, switch to that tab". I always turn it on immediately, by default it's off for some weird reason, to me it seems intuitive that you want to see this link now, just without losing the page you were on. On iOS, on my iPad, this option is missing and functions as if it's off, it never switches focus. And under certain conditions, like watching videos, the current tab is shoved all the way to the right in the tab bar, meaning that I first have to scroll the tab bar before I can manually change to the new tab. This is all counter-intuitive to how it SHOULD work. It's strange that this very useful option is present in the Windows version but not the iOS version. Or if it IS there, I haven't been able to find it despite trying everything.

Hello!

For the past many months (possibly a year), the mobile to desk top view setting never stays ON as default. If I leave my email page (while in desk top view), go to another tab & come back even 2 mins later, my email's right back to the mobile view again! I've even tried to switch the setting (in the menu) back to mobile view to reset it, but it just won't reset. The desk top view icon stays turned on & won't turn off, however, the site stays in mobile view. The only way I can reset this & turn the desk top view back on, is to close out my email & reopen it, then tap the setting back on again (& just don't leave the tab)! I have searched "high n low, everywhere" for help on this issue for a long time, however, not even on the FF site, can I find ANY article what so ever about this setting! And yes I "have" cleaned out cache, uninstalled, reinstalled etc... I do believe I have sent in a few support requests in the past (don't recall where or how lol), but never get a reply. I also remember being directed to the "submit a bug report" page but, haha, yeah, I have no idea how to do that, it all looks very foreign to me lol! Is there any way for this to be fixed in an update, or even on my end? Are any others having this issue...?

I would greatly & sincerely appreciate any help if possible?! I've been using FF for "many" years & really don't wish to change!

Thank you so much! Sharon
