My iPad keyboard (5 years old) suddenly stopped working when I try to search. I type a letter and the search bar kind of bounces then nothing is typed in. This happened suddenly a few days ago and is only happening on Firefox. Safari works just fine with the keyboard.

Hello. My occupation requires me to deal with videos, often heavy unedited videos and I usually download and upload those through Firefox. However these videos can become quite heavy on the hard disk especially in numbers. However, when deleting them in the download folder (through the Files app on the iPad), either Firefox or the iPad doesn’t consider them deleted and their weight is still present, though the file is clearly not in this world anymore. This amounts to dozens of gigabytes of data that I can’t delete, except if I completely remove and reinstall the Firefox app which can be quite annoying especially when dealing with account syncing.

Is this a known issue ? Is there a fix besides reinstalling the app ?

Thank you for any help.

Hello,

I was told to come to this site to report issues with Firefox iOS. I searched this site to see if someone is having a similar issue but didn't find anything.

The issue is simple: I use Firefox on iOS to search Google. I don't want to use the separate Google search app. I like having everything inside Firefox itself. When I initially search for something, the Google search result page loads fine. However, after I use other apps on my phone for while, if I come back to Firefox, then those pages are blank and don't load. I can still see what I searched for in the title of the tab, but the content of the tab is blank and doesn't load even if I press the refresh button. Somehow, this issue MOSTLY happens with the Google search result page, not really with any other website (also I think I've seen this happen with other websites once or twice), which is pretty odd.

I'll try and reproduce it and attach screenshots later.

Recently, I’ve started getting a message when I attempt to use Autofill for site passwords that tells me I “must have a device passcode enabled.” The problem is I DO have a device passcode enabled. I tried changing it, but that had no effect. What is causing this behavior and how can I make it stop?

In trying to install Firefox on IOS, the authentication codes don't work; the downloaded codes don't work; scanning the QR code doesn't work (on both iphone and ipad). I cannot log onto Firefox on either device. And of course I ultimately get locked out.

Hi, is there a way to change the user agent on iOS? The FxiOS part makes the browser way more fingerprint-able than standard safari, even with all the anti-fingerprint settings to the max.

I’m having difficulty with Firefox on an iPad mini fifth generation running iOS 16.4.1 and today’s version of Firefox. I’ve used Firefox for years with Duck Duck Go as search engine with no problem. Today without warning Firefox stopped accepting URLs typed into the search bar from the Homepage (or any page). It simply ignores the typing and flickers momentarily, keeping the existing URL and page. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, changing the default search engine from Duck Duck Go to Firefox, and changing from a custom homepage to the Firefox homepage. No luck. Please advise.

I’ve followed the instructions for turning off Firefox suggestions, but have a couple that continue to show. They are not bookmarks.

I’ve tried deleting browsing history.

Thanks

"The CSS code 'overflow-x: auto;' is not working in the current Firefox browser. Can you please help?"

Hello all, I am a developer and am currently working on an website. My domain is on go daddy and my application is deployed on heroku. I have pointed my domain name on go daddy to the heroku DNS and have set up forwarding so it is always sent to https instead of http. IE example.com goes to https://www.example.com and www.example.com goes to https://www.example.com

This works across all browsers and devices, chrome on desktop, safari on desktop, firefox on desktop, chrome app, and safari app.

However, on the Firefox mobile app for IOS, only entering example.com redirects correctly. www.example.com does not forward to https://www.example.com, it instead always goes to http://www.example.com

Is this a common issue with firefox mobile app for IOS? Any other developers know a fix for this? I am certain all my heroku and go daddy stuff is set up correctly. I need this to redirect correctly as my application requires https connection.

Thank you in advance for any help, it is greatly appreciated.
