Add the possibility to choose the default download folder either somewhere in the settings or as popup suggestion menu while downloading files. Or make it to system default.

The Firefox „download“ folder and default system download folder are different, which is extremely annoying.

Found this post because of it, to be able to set download folder will be fantastic

I really appreciate that, Jon. First time posting here (I think?) and I’m blown away by the quick response. Thank you again.

I totally support the idea. Was just searching how to change default download location of Firefox .

I’ve downloaded Firefox two weeks ago on iPhone and I’m just made the big step to change my default browser.

I cannot believe that the default download folder cannot be configured… I hope someone will work on that (but since this post is two years old…) or I might seriously reconsider my choice 🥲

The most important thing for me is to have all my files download automatically to iCloud instead of locally.
