Firefox för Android gemenskapsforum

Sorry this is not a question but I can't find a email for Mozilla mobile for android we need a way to make it harder to accidently close a tab and also an option is setting to bringing back said closed tab with a longer time not 3seconds so who ever gets this please send it to a Mozilla worker.

I read the strings of comments regarding about:config not working and presenting a blank page. I have the same issue. I have been a Firefox user for decades, preferring Firefox over all other browsers. However, without the ability to customize Firefox we, the loyal, may be forced to use another browser. Also, no customization is only contribution to other browser's owners/developers efforts to eliminate Firefox. Is there a solution to fixing current version or Firefox, about:config in development or already available?

Hi, I am using an Android phone with a 6.4" screen. I find it difficult to type in the search bar when it is at the top. Can I bring my search bar to the middle of the mobile screen?

I can't find a way to move the navigation buttons from the bottom of the screen, where they shouldn't be, to the top of the screen. Tab selection should go back to the top, too. Am I just missing something? Can I do something in about:config?

Imagine always having access to navigation buttons at the top of the screen. You even downloaded an app that put system UI buttons at the top of the screen, too! It agrees with your rapidly aging joints because it's easier to have your hands closer to their default orientation.

Look at your hand right now. What orientation is it in? Did you look at the side of your pointer finger and your thumb? No. You likely looked at your palm. Furthermore, many blind people who use phones will type with accessibility features that often result in their hands being in the default orientation. The screens will be facing away and they'll use 6 or 8 fingers on the touchscreen to type.

Having navigation buttons at the top of the screen can be more accessible to some people because it is more compatible with the default orientation of the human hand. (Also disappointed that I can no longer put Gboard most of the way up the screen. But that's a problem that won't get fixed because Google is too big to have useful support and dev teams)

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this. The support website dumped me here.

Ummm don't forget to uhh [generic advice here] because it's good for stuff and things :)

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.

I've just happened to learn that Firefox on Android no longer uses a master password to protect passwords. That was a feature that has kept me on Firefox forever.

It is insufficient, dangerous, and insecure to rely on my device PIN. PINs are not long, can be brute forced, and law enforcement can compel discloser.

I am baffled by this choice. If it is how its going to be I have no particular reason to use Firefox and I certainly can't financially support it.

I absolutely hate the new ui and there is no option to change it either

Also not showing full link in search bar is kinda stupid...not even a option to enable it either

Reported 2 bugs in bugzilla 1 year ago....no fix till now The countdown on website still doesn't work in background(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1848178)

Dear Mozilla Firefox Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request the addition of the Vencord extension to the Firefox Add-ons repository.

Vencord is a highly useful tool that enhances user productivity by allowing users to customize Discord. Many users, including myself, rely on its functionalities for theming and plugins. Having it available in the official Firefox Add-ons repository would significantly improve accessibility and convenience for Firefox users. Right now, I am using Tampermonkey to use Vencord, but having an official add-on would be much more convenient.

I kindly request you to consider this addition. If there is any further information or testing required, please let me know, and I would be happy to assist.

I need to reach the about:config menu but firefox takes me to a search menu on the engine I chose (duckduckgo). It provides lots of nice info but not how to reach this feature.

I am using Chrome OS so possibly that is the issue.

Thanks!

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 found missing customization option for Android Firefox to be AMOLED black theme, it just gets darker but not pitch black. Or I haven't found the way to do it

Keep improving Firefox :)

I can't figure out how to customize the collections. I want to be able to organize my collections alphabetically, make sub-collections under a parent collection (like one can do in Gmail, for example), it would also be helpful have the option to choose the color of the main/parent collections, and to be able to search within the collections using a keyword in a search box.

With all of these customizable options, I could create a better, more efficient organizational system that would REALLY help to keep & identify collections quicker & easier.

I have had to make dozens & dozens of collections due to the inability to file sub-collections under main/parent collections.

As a result, a frustratingly unnecessary amount of time & effort is spent trying to remember when & where (throughout my ENTIRE history of having Firefox/using collections) a particular collection is located.

I then ALSO have to spend an unnecessary & frustrating amount of time searching within the collection just to locate a particular link as there is no search bar within the individual collection (or from all of the collections, umm... collectively) to facilitate a search.

• • I wanted to make sure it is known that I DO like this feature, regardless if it was intentional by design or not

Once I eventually find the 1. Collection I'm looking for, and then eventually find the 2. Link I'm looking for.. I can click on the link, and I'm directed to the page I saved, but here's the bonus:

When I hit the back button, I'm taken to the page I was on, previous to the page I saved. This is SUPER helpful when I come back to something I've been researching as it helps me to reconnect to the line of thinking I had during the time of research. This helps to eliminate the need to keep such a detailed journal of the thought processes behind each area of research to expand upon or revisit.

So thank you for that!! Also, please don't mess with it? I'm only needing help with the items mentioned at the beginning of this message.

Thank you for your attention, time & help with figuring out how to locate & utilize the customizable, collections organization options.

With appreciation to those who work behind the scenes, doing what they can to foster potential, growth, efficiency & ease,

Home screen custom wallpaper selection, new themes ( blue, white or smth else ), new open tabs section style. Please bring a few more features like this, because Firefox can be made much more beautiful (I think so). Especially custom wallpaper should come as quickly as possible. This is just one user's opinion, I hope you take it into consideration.
