How force HTTP-mode for specific websites?

How can I override the default to connect to a website in HTTPS-mode and enforce a HTTP connection for specific websites, like the configuration server on modems/routers?

Where is the Firefox-for-Desktop option in the padlock menu for the Android version, when it says "Connection is not secure", to turn off "HTTPS-Only Mode" temporarily or permanently for that site?

All I have available, is the in this case pointless "Retry" button and the useless info "This connection has timed out". But nothing at all to force a HTTP-Only connection.

The solution can't be, that every time I need to connect to a website that does not support transport encryption, to have to dive deep into FF's settings and globally disable "HTTPS-Only Mode", and once I am done, go back and enable it again.

So, what is the pragmatic solution on mobile Firefox to add and manage such exceptions?

Currently using Firefox Nightly version 111.0a1 for Android now when trying to open a link in another app it always shows a popup to confirm.

This was not present in previous releases and I don't know if there is a way to prevent this popup as it makes it uncomfortable. Is there an option I may be missing to disable this feature? If not, could an option like this be introduced?

Thanks and regards

When i tap on any link it asks to open in other apps and when i accept it open in "virustotal". This broblem only happens in firefox, the other browsers worked fine, and i haven't set virustotal app to open any links by default. I don't want to reject all "open in other apps" requests as it may be usefull like playstore links or youtube etc..

This started happening recently. Firefox will not delete Yahoo mail message if Yahoo App is installed.

It keeps asking to use the app. Used to be you would click on CANCEL and everything would go through.

As soon as Yahoo App is UNINSTALLED, everything starts working. I tried installing a Yahoo App version from a year ago, and still the problem reappears.

Is there any way to just set things so Firefox NEVER asks to use Yahoo App? I want it to use other apps , just not Yahoo Mail.

I just installed Firefox Nightly in a Chromebook, and I can't find the developer tools. I have pressed Ctrl+Shift+I but nothing pops opened, and the browser's menu does not list the developer tools. (I tried to add an image through this form, but I kept getting a prompt about allowing the application to take pictures and videos, although I already had authorized access to the storage of the device. Given that it made no sense to keep getting this prompt, I was unable to add an image. However, I uploaded one to imgur, and the linked image below illustrates the Firefox Nightly menu. NOtice there is no developer tools.)

https://imgur.com/a/R7vSvIA

I am puzzled.

Version information: 113.0a1 (Build #2015943815), 143eedee95+ GV: 113.0a1-20230409095525 AS: 97.4.1

Could I get some feedback?

Thanx

Hi

I have an issue when I try to set Firefox as my default browser on Huawei P20 lite (EMUI 9.1) device.

When I go to the app Settings--> Set as default browser option, I'm not getting the default apps page (screenshot 3). Instead, a premission settings page (screenshot 1) is popping up, and the button on Settings--> Set as default browser, is still grey (screenshot 2).

Earlier today, I've installed Firefox Focus browser, and when I tried to set it as my default browser, everything worked as it should, and the page of defaults apps opened up (screenshot 3).

I'll be very happy to know if this is a bug related to my device, or it happens with other devices.

Thanks in advance

I have followed the directions to change settings for pop-up blocker but when I go to the permissions section of Privacy&Security there is no BLOCK POP-UP WINDOWS with a checked box next to it. So I cannot make exceptions.

I have Firefox for Android on my Samsung tablet version 111. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

In the past few weeks i cannot sign in to my accounts with different vendors like Amazon. A pop up window appears when I click on "Sign In" and the window states, and I quote: "Open in another app

                                                                                                         Would you like to leave Firefox to view this content?"
                                                                                                          Cancel                     Open 

If I click on Cancel it will let me enter the email or phone number in the site pop up box. But, once entered and pressing the continue box, which would normally take you to the password box, it brings up the same window as above. Then it does not matter whether i click on Cancel or Open, it will not give me a password box and will not take me to the site. It presents a page that states We're sorry, The web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site. So, I cannot call any Firefox Tech person and get this straightened out. Also today, the website icons I have saved to my home page were greyed out today. I went to Verizon and they determined it was an issue with Firefox since that is how I accessed those sites and used that search engine to save them to the home screen. I decided to reload those one at a time and then erase the greyed out icons. When I got the 3rd one done the other 29 became live again. Not sure what is at issue here but i do need assistance. Please help. Paul Phipps
