Sure, they just need to fix their annoying bugs on Android.
Everytime I leave a tab open and switch to another app, it’s a 50/50 whether I return to a black screen and am forced to restart it or it just works fine.
Yup that’s been a long running issue with Firefox on android. Thought it was just me at first then saw forums where tons of people have the issue and the only suggestion is to reinstall it
I thought it was a problem with my phone since I’m using a custom ROM and it did not happen before.
When I open Firefox and it has been in the background for a while, it shows a black screen where the web content should be and often crashes if you try to open another tab or do something else. Also happens if I open a link from another app. The only solution is to close Firefox and swipe it off the recent apps and reopen it.
Is this the same problem you have?
I never had issues with Firefox on my S23. I’m not sure how else to politely suggest it’s specific to your friend’s settings. But believe what you want.
I have never had an issue either. We’re all just tiny anecdotes in a sea of users. I mean, people that don’t have issues won’t generally post about it on forums, so of course people will generally only see others posting about similar issues unless they are some magical unique unicorn.

Hmm, I don’t remember seeing that. What version of android?
Android 13. Looking in the other replies, it seems pretty wide spread.
take a look at ice Raven the few devices I’ve ran it on never gave me that issue

Yep, I have it on my Poco F5 with MIUI and a friend that has a Galaxy S23 with stock OS also has the same issue.
I never had an issue with Firefox. Sounds like it’s specific to your friend’s settings not model.
A lot of people are saying they suffer the same and me and my friend have completely different devices with different Android flavours.
It doesn’t seem to be what you are saying.

Another thing I managed to miss out on :(
I had to uninstall since it was draining my battery. On one day it was 40% of my battery usage with just 1 minute on time actually open.
