Firefox for iOS Support Forum

I have used Firefox for iOS on my iPad for years. Daily or At least every other day I delete the history by using history, trash can, then choosing everything huingy. One day it didn't work. There were last week entries, which I don't normally see. I painstakingly manually deleted them. They all came back. I checked fir an update and saw that it had updated the previous day to 110.2 As if today 03/13/23 I still can't clear my history. At one point Today and yesterday disappeared. Then Inclosed, reopened history and everything once again reappeared!

Please help. I have emptied the iPad's cache it doesn't help. I have off loaded the FF app, and pulled it back , nothing helps.

Thanks for any advice. LJ

1. Whenever you login a site, Firefox does not remember the cookies from the login. So when you close the app and open it later, so you need to login again.

1. Firefox crashes a lot since iOS 16 and now too on 16.1, and now also since the release iPadOS 16.1. This makes the app difficult to use and really bad.

Both are very frustrating and important issue, please fix it!

Images are inverted too. It’s been like this for months. I was hoping it would be fixed in an update, but no luck. I can’t be the only one having this issue. Latest IOS, iPad M1.

The issue has been reported here: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/12053

I have Firefox as my default browser on iOS. However, tapping “search web” from the context menu that appears when text is selected, opens Safari instead of a new tab in Firefox. The only workaround is to tap “look up” from the context menu and tap “search web” in Siri, breaking up what earlier required a single step into two steps.

I use this for more than 5 years on iOS, but the last 2-3 versions became horrible. On iPhone XR with iOS 15, the app stops working if I swipe down the control center and go back to the app. When I start the app, the most visited sites and their icons are flashing for 1-2 secs, and some sites are really slow (it is hard to scroll, it almost freezes). I hope you can fix these bugs. If you need screencast to see the phenomenon, I can provide it as well. Thank you!

I’m unable to add any additional search engines. App crashes every time. I’ve also uninstalled the app and reinstalled to see if that changed anything…. It did not. Any help would be appreciated

Every time I try to add a search engine (the one I’m trying now is “wiki.pokemoncentral.it”) Firefox on my 6th generation iPad with iPadOS 15.6 (latest version) crashes, and it does that even with my iPhone Xr. I don’t know what to do, I think it’s a bug or something like that. Please Mozilla, if there isn’t any solution I can do, fix it.
