Settins not available after linking Google to Firefox. Upper right drop down does not list settings as "Help" searches recommend. Make this readily available at all times. This must be a google feature. It's annoying and arrogant. Another reason google is so appreciated, ha-ha?

Update 133 broke desktop mode on mobile

Hey guys,

I'm using firefox mobile on a lenovo p11 tablet with android 11. Yesterday, everything was fine. This morning I'm opening firefox and every site I visit is huge. Like, really huge. It looks like it is zoomed in, but the max zoom out state is still huge.

It turns out that desktop mode doesn't work anymore, because firefox 133 was installed overnight on my tablet. If you toggle it in the 3 dot menu, the site just reloads but if you check the menue after that it's deactivated again. This happens with the new option (always load desktop mode under website settings) on and off.

Most mobile sites are terrible on tablets since most of the screen real estate is completely wasted by way too big fonts, sidebars, etc.

Is there a workaround for this?

Also, is this a known issue, or should I report it on bugzilla or something?

Cheers

Hello, My Firefox on Android (latest version) is missing the "always" setting in "open links in native apps". It is also clear to me that this version doesn't even ask me to open links in native apps (that is the current setting). I would like to understand if this is a bug or something that has changed in one of the releases and the help pages aren't yet updated. Thanks

I'm sorry for the question, usually this is something easy to fix on a PC or phone, but I'm on my tablet (Samsung, android) and somehow none of the settings available here, offer a solution in lowering the font size on my screen. I've looked at YouTube videos, gone into reddit and even asked Google, yet all the answers are somewhat the same but cannot be found while I'm on this tablet. I need help please!!! 😫

Horizontal menu on a web site changed suddenly, no change made to web site

Hello!

A web site I frequent, livebyliving.org, has a menu structure running horizontally across the top of the pages. Each option has a pull-down sub-menu. Yesterday afternoon or evening that menu turned into the three bar menu icon in the upper corner of the pages and the horizontal menu disappeared. When I click the three bar icon the entire menu structure is displayed vertically.

Firefox on my Android tablet was updated November 26. I used the site in question numerous times since that update and the menu was displayed correctly. It displayed correctly yesterday morning, Nov 29. In the evening, when I went to use the site, the menu behavior had changed. I also note the change when using my Android phone. The last Android update for my tablet was February 6, 2023.

I tested with Chrome and Google today and they display the menu correctly so it seems as if something specific to Firefox changed yesterday.

I've attached three screen shots. The first is the correct behavior with the horizontal menu. The second image shows the same page with the changed menu presentation. The third image shows the sub-menu presentation after whatever changed.

Any thoughts would be most appreciated!

when I type in the address bar to go to a new page, the new page either doesn't load at all or loads briefly then goes back to the page that was previously loaded in that tab. the only way to go to a new page is to open a new tab (or close all tabs then open tab 1). is this how it's supposed to work? because this isn't how any browser has ever worked LOL. if it's not expected, how do I fix it?

apologies if already asked but I didn't see it.

Suddenly when using Google on my tablet the search results have become too small to read I see no way of adjusting this apart. from zooming with my fingers. I have played with accessiblity settings and reinstalled without success. Other sites seem OK and Chrome works well too. I see from the various support forums that this has happened regularly in the past but no one comes up with a good answer. I don't want to dump Firefox.

I've been trying to view my saved passwords on mobile but every time I either enter my pin or use my thumbprint to log in, the action doesn't complete. It just goes back to the enter pin screen again and again.

This is the first time I'm encountering this problem and I'm a bit stumped.
