Firefox Focus Support Forum

I have Firefox Focus and I have enjoyed it except for one blaring issue. Without closing it, it sometimes completely restarts and closes every tab. I lose SO much when it happens. Is there ANYTHING that I can do in this instance to retrieve my tabs?

How can I open a blank new tab in Firefox Focus browser on Android. The only option now seems to be to press and hold a link in the existing webpage and to select Open link in private tab? Thank you

As the title says, the navigation bar (the one with the back, forward, trash and hamburger menu button) in Firefox Focus (I’m on iOS 16.1.1, iPhone XS) sometimes covers a part of the view, which is most noticeable when getting these cookie notifications at the bottom of websites. From my testing, it happens when entering the website from a link, and not when entering the URL directly into the address bar, and it fixes itself if you manage to scroll a little.

I have created several shortcuts to websites using Add to Home screen from the menu.

How do I create a backup of these shortcuts, or how do I move them to another device?

In Firefox Focus for Android Version 110.1.0 Build#370591223 the option 'Add Shortcut' does not appear in the menu anymore. It was there prior to the update yesterday. I still have several shortcuts listed on the home page when Focus opens which I cannot remove, but that's a different issue.

Has this feature been removed from Firefox Focus for Android?

I have a 8" Android 10 tablet with FF Focus as a default browser. Half the width of screen is taken by four buttons (back, forward, reload and trash). On the phone I only have one (trash). I'd like to have similarly simple view on the tablet with only one button in front of address bar instead of four, since on a small tablet this creates clutter (often I can't see even a short address, only a domain name fits). Is it possible to achieve?

Thank you in advance for any ideas.

1. Launch firefox focus 2. Do some search 3. Move on and use some other apps. 4. After a while, come back to Firefox focus. (repeat steps 1 through 4 multiple times maybe?) 5. App freezes and iPhone screen turns black with a spinner in the center and finally displays the lock screen, Firefox focus has crashed.

Phone: iPhone 14 Pro OS: iOS 16.2 Firefox Focus: 110.0 (16656)

This has been happening for the past couple months if not longer.

There are times when I am using FireFox focus, when I hit the garbage can icon on the bottom of the app it causes my iPhone to logout of IOS. It is intermittent issue. It doesn’t happen every time I use Firefox Focus and I can’t determine anything to try an repeat the issue. It just happens about once every two weeks.

I have been using Firefox Focus for about 2 weeks and the blocked site tracker count is over 19,000 trackers already. Is it normal to see daily increases of hundreds or thousands of trackers like this? My browser speed is recently very slow and sometimes it hangs completely. I also get "usual traffic" notifications sometimes while browsing, and then Google requires me to prove I am a person and not a bot (via reCaptcha). Is this cause for concern? Does this potentially sound like there could be malware on my phone?

Firefox focus 109.0 iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16.3

Hi there, I’ve used Firefox focus for a number of years but recently I’ve noticed an issue with the app crashing.

To reproduce this I think the app needs to have been open and running in the background for a long time (several hours). Then clicking the trash can icon seems to cause a slow down that within a few seconds makes the phone screen turn black and show a spinny icon before returning to the Lock Screen. Using multi-tasking to force close the app instead of the trash icon seems to circumvent this.

Especially for some sites, such as the Washington Post, when attempting to clear Focus by tapping the trash can, Focus freezes, then (both) the iPad or iPhone go black with a small spinning circle, rebooting to iPad's/iPhone's entry screen. This started happening recently, in early 2023, after updating iOS. Very very very (did I say "very"?) annoying. If this is not a current Focus bug report, it should be.

Ever since the past week or so, when watching a video and rotating my phone to landscape, the video will not expand to landscape. There is a very tiny box center mid at the top that is the video but the the full window is gray. I have pixel 5 with up to date android.

In Focus, autorotate, which I use frequently, suddenly stopped working yesterday. I tried turning it off/on a few times and uninstall/reinstall. No change.

Please help.

As I try to rotate the screen orientation while using Firefox Focus, the screen goes blank. This doesn't happen elsewhere on any other app on my device. I tried re-installing and restarting my phone, but I have the same problem. Anybody encounter this issue?
