Sometimes when using Firefox it'll freeze up for like 5-10 seconds after I do certain things:

- Leave the app and come back to it - Interact with a notification - Open the control center - Swipe down to open the notification area (I forget what that's actually called)

I'm on the most recent version of FF iOS and my phone is an iPhone 6S on iOS 12.4. The issue doesn't always occur but I'm not sure what the difference is in the times it does and doesn't happen.

As an iphone 6s is a little bit older now, it might just hitching up when the phone is pulling Firefox out of sleep, maybe? I noticed mine hitched up a little when I loaded my bookmarks, I assume because it was syncing for a second.

Is it causing it to crash or anything? 5-10 seconds isn't great. Let's see...

Did this just start happening, or did you just start using firefox? Does it seem to happen even if you navigate away for a second, or when you've navigated away from firefox for a little bit of time?

It happens even if I navigate away for just a moment. It also happens whenever I open my control center, open the app switcher (but not switch apps), or open the notification center. This may occur more often when in low power mode, but I'm not certain.

This doesn't really occur with any other app that I use (as far as I know). I believe it's been happening sporadically since I first started using Firefox on iOS. Not crashing (it's crashed once or twice, but I don't think that's related), just freezing up / becoming totally unresponsive.
