As for now the themes for homepage is kind of boring.

1: Add clear colors

2: Option to to add your own background.

No add-on, no fiddling around. Just choose..

Anyway..Love firefox 🙂

Wallpaper Customisation

Currently we cannot add wallpapers of our own choice from the gallery/file manager. Please add such an option.(The Opera Browser has such option)

ability to add own images to mobile homepage and or more options in general

I like customization, I bet a lot do.

And firefox on PC is fairly customizable and for mobile it's ahead of others but could be better

I think ability to add own images for background on homepage would be a nice, and I assume simple addition, have 1 at a time or a "cache" of 3-5 would work.

Some built in themes would be nice like I would LOVE to have a alpenglow/radiane theme in mobile even just on homepage. But app wide would be amazing!

Also some basic color themes from the colorways thing done a while back on mobile would be cool to have as well, could bring em back to pc too as I loves just switching em quickly based on my mood or time of day

Custom Wallpapers

Currently, Firefox mobile only has 6 wallpapers and no custom option. I think it would be good to be able to have custom wallpapers.

Here is very quick a mockup of this idea:Saturday, 22 Apr 2023 23_30_34.png

Custom homepage on ff android

Default ff android  homepages are boring and offer next to no customizibility , something like chrome or any other browser where user and set a custome page can be implemented here

Mobile version improving: Custom wallpapers on homescreen

The standard wallpaper is quite beautiful, but sometimes you get bored, you want something of your own. I propose to add the possibility to add your own wallpaper from the gallery or URL links.

I agree with your idea. The standard backgrounds aren't bad, but they are very few and can quickly get boring, the ability to upload your own wallpaper from your phone or by URL would be just great.

Wallpaper in Firefox

Dear Mozilla Firefox,

I am writing to you today to request that you allow users to set their own pictures or images from their phone gallery as the background for the new tab page in Firefox. I think this would be a great addition to the new tab page, as it would allow users to personalize their browser experience and make it more visually appealing. Currently, the only way to change the new tab page background is to choose from a selection of 12 built-in images. While these images are nice, they are limited in number and variety. Allowing users to set their own pictures or images as the background would give them much more flexibility and control over the look of their new tab page. They could use pictures of their favorite places, pets, or family members. They could also use images that they find inspiring or calming. I believe that this would be a popular feature with Firefox users. A recent survey found that 70% of Firefox users would like to be able to set their own pictures as the background for the new tab page. I urge you to consider adding this feature to Firefox in a future update. I think it would be a great way to improve the user experience and make Firefox even more appealing to users.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely

B R Shriradhakrishnasharnam

Subject: Request to Add Custom Wallpaper Feature to Firefox on Android


Respected Mozilla Firefox Team,

I am a regular user of Firefox on various platforms and greatly appreciate its privacy-centric approach and performance. However, there is one feature missing on the Android version that prevents me from making Firefox my default browser—custom wallpapers. Currently, I am using Microsoft Edge as my default browser on Android, primarily because it allows me to select wallpapers from my phone's gallery to personalize my browsing experience.

I kindly request that you consider adding this functionality in a future update of Firefox for Android. Allowing users to choose wallpapers from their gallery would enhance the personalization options within the browser, making it even more user-friendly and visually appealing.

Thank you for your time and continued commitment to improving the browsing experience.

Warm regards,  
B. R. Shriradhakrishnasharnam
