Firefox.
I've noticed that in the latest version, 1.2, the progress beeps have disappeared for me. Liked that feature.
Button is changed
The button next to the address bar is changed. Instead of just the number it now says
Show Tabs
followed by the number of tabs open.
Firefox 116.0 and problem with explore by touch in portrait mode
Hello all,
I have been using Firefox for iOS without issues for many years.
Since a few days now, I can't use explore by touch at all. From VoiceOver's point of view, the screen is empty between the upper part where the address bar is, and the row of tabs. If I place the finger in the middle of the screen, I won't get any content from the web page. If I place my finger at the upper right corner at the "Reload page" button and start flicking right, I can access the page by flicking. But needless to say, this is not the way it should be.
The interesting part is that this issue does not occur in landscape mode, only in portrait mode. For me it is not an option, though, to use the phone in landscape mode. I just find it too difficult.
I have both re-booted the phone and re-installed Firefox without luck. I am running iOS 16.6 on an iPhone XS and the exact Firefox version is 116.0 (33174).
Even though I'm pretty sure this is a global issue, it would be nice if someone could confirm this behaviour.
And then I'm wondering what would be the best way to get Mozilla aware of the issue so that it could be fixed. Does anyone have thoughts on this?
Thanks!
I’m having the same problem.
I am having the same problem exploring by touch while using Firefox. Hopefully they’ll fix this soon. Also, I’m not getting the tones to let me know that pages are loading.
Confirming both issues and a question
I have noticed both issues mentioned above.
My question: Is there a setting to automatically delete all website addresses in "history" upon closing FireFox? To my knowledge, I had to manually delete each individual link, a process I find a bit time-consuming. -- Thanks.
