Please add Rules to Thunderbird mobile and sync them to Thunderbird desktop. The QR approach to syncing accounts and settings between Thunderbird desktop and Thunderbird mobile is really nice. Adding Rules as an option to the QR checkboxes would be a great way to allow syncing Rules on demand between devices. Rules are a really powerful way to manage email using Thunderbird desktop. K-9 email was a good email app -- good enough to merit Mozilla's attention, but its lack of ability to use Rules was one of its few weaknesses. Now that K-9 has become a core part of the new Thunderbird mobile app, that weakness should be corrected as soon as possible. Lacking the ability to set and sync rules between Thunderbird desktop and Thunderbird mobile makes things difficult for the mobile user. For instance, rules can be set on Thunderbird desktop to mark email for deletion, move email to the Deleted folder, or delete email entirely. Rules can also be set to mark and tag email for better filtering, grouping, and sorting. Lacking those rules, Thunderbird mobile has only a search filter to aid the user in reducing the amount of email that is irrelevant to current session needs or preferences. I'm certainly not telling you something you don't already know, but I hope you will seriously consider my feature request. I suspect a lot of Thunderbird mobile users will appreciate this improvement. I know I will. Thanks for the work you do, and have a great day. ... View more

Add a box you can uncheck on the 'Manage extension' page next to each addon/theme to disable them from syncing with other browsers on your account.   This would be useful in at least two places: Setting different themes in nightly so is visually obvious which Firefox is open (I daliy normal FF but use nightly for testing code) Only have performance add-ons were needed (eg h264ify on my old pc but not my new laptop) Seriously Firefox devs, PLEASE add this, the lack of it is a problem for me every day, and when I switch computers I need to manually toggle about 5 things off and on just to do work (and by work I mean the all-important pastime of video watch). ...

Festive Greetings Mozilla Company and I hope that you are developing for the future. I mentioned this idea in Google Playstore as part suggestions part opinion and got a response, FROM MOZILLA, and a link to say that here so it's about the Mozilla Firefox Browser having a fully Web Developer friendly features such as : 1.Dhtml , Shtml ,Html ,Html5 2.Css , Css2 , Css3 or Css4 etc... 3.Javascript encyclopedia of libraries to add and choose from e.g. Json, React , jQuery ,Ajax or Phaser 4. Php MyAdmin with Zend Engine ( Sqllite, Sql , MySql ) to allow offline developments on the developers device as a virtual server as to allow for offline developments of the web. This would then enable Web Developers to further Develop how they can with the, Mozilla Firefox Web developer browser and once it's prototypical , I suggest that Mozilla would broadcast on all Socials so people like me can get to explore it and reciprocate communication about it here and there ...

I use my own home page. Which I call switchboard. It is responsive and works well for desktop and mobile. It used to be synchronized from the desktop to the mobile devices. This is no longer the case. I thought I would learn to live with this change. But in fact I'm not. I have already investigated into other browsers to get this functionality back. Can we please get the home page setting for mobile devices back? ... View more

I just downloaded and installed Thunderbird. When setting things up, it looks like my Google account and calendars have synced nicely. For some reason, google tasks aren't imported/synced. It would be nice if tasks could sync. If this is already a feature, I'd like to know how to implement it 🙂 ... View more

Hi team! I've been checking out your browser, and it's got a lot of potential. But there are a couple of things holding it back on Android First off, let's talk about importing and exporting. It's a pain that we can't do this on mobile. Could you please add an HTML-based import/export feature? That'd be a game-changer. Secondly, we need full extension access on Android. Why limit us to a smaller selection? Let's bring the full power of extensions to our phones. By addressing these two points, you can really elevate the Android experience and make Firefox the go-to browser for privacy-conscious mobile users. ... View more

Sync is very useful and should become even better when the new Profile Management System lands. However, there's still a few things that could be worked on. Real-life example: I have 2 PCs, one I use daily and one I use once in a while. Sync normally allows me to keep my bookmarks (among other stuff) up-to-date across both. But, if I log in to the first and apply changes to my bookmarks (say I delete some bookmarks), when I log in on the second a few days latter, sync merges the bookmarks across the two devices bringing back the bookmarks I had deleted. Something similar happens with Homepage. The way I see it, Sync needs to be more like git and could use at least a few options: One session / machine should be declared as main, Other sessions / machines are automatically branches, When logging in to an account, Firefox should ask whether to "keep the main", "update main based on current branch" or "merge the two" (like what it's doing currently), Doing so should display a summary of changes; this could be like git-diff per synced item (AI-generated summaries is another plausible venue nowadays I guess). Importantly, the summary should highlight which changes come from which session / machine and what are their timestamps, Possibly add a confirmation dialogue as a final step to avoid accidents. Functionality (3-5) could be exposed to the user as an option per-profile with some default parameters. ... View more

So Mozilla already offered us Cloud account to sync our settings, bookmark, and other things. Then why not sync our notes, containers and screenshots and why not offer the ability to save screenshots in the cloud? Where we can share both notes and screenshots using public URLs. Many would pay for the file hosting. Offer 5 gb free for Screenshots & notes saving in the cloud and then ask for payment for more file space.   I think it's a WIN- WIN for everyone! ... View more

Recently, I was setting up Firefox on a new PC and had trouble logging in. I couldn't remember my password and kept making new ones. This resulted in me losing all my settings and most importantly, shortcuts on a new tab. I had everything organized but because of the login troubles, now all of it's come to waste. Because of that, I'm suggesting primary syncing devices - you could set a device to be your primary device, and when syncing, all other devices use the primary device's settings. When on a secondary device, the settings you change will only stay on the secondary device, and get marked as "specifically for this device" or you can go to the syncing page and manually sync the device's settings with your primary device, making the changed settings transfer onto the primary device. Alternatively, you could make the secondary device the new primary device, overwriting all other devices' settings with the new primary device's settings. To prevent what happened to me, there could be a pop-up which appears when you turn on sync, asking you whether or not you want it to make it the primary device. You could also preserve primary status on devices which have been logged out of, waiting for you to either log in on the device or set a new primary one. Maybe you could even make syncing work cross-platform. Have settings on your pc and your phone be the same! But with the new specified settings feature, you can still have differing settings if you wish so. ... View more

I often send tabs over to other devices and have to log in again because my session expired on the other device or I was never logged in there. would be nice to just be able to carry on working without having to dig up 2fa and wasting time authenticating again when I already had a session a further nice to have would be remembering scroll state, tab mute, and other details about the synced tab ...

In my dynamics of organizing my favorite addresses I depend a lot on the date they were created, but when I need to import from other browsers or use the synchronization feature in case I start using a new device, this date remains with the date the import or synchronization occurred and not with the correct date of creation, what I suggest is that this creation date is preserved when importing from other browsers or during synchronization. ...

On some Computer My Thunderbird Profile is still the same as from the first version of Thunderbird from 2006. It contains a lot of strange files and is much larger than a new profile. Please develop a full migration of the Thunderbird profile into a new profile. Beside my I'm also Family admin of several PC with Thunderbird. Most of their Profile has the same age like my profile. It would be nice If I could migrate these profile as easy as possible. I do not wish to set up new mail clients  and may forget settings or add-ons.   I suggest following behavior. User do start a Profile migration Thunderbird requests some basics [x] Automatic cleanup - nothing get lost you currently use. [ ] Custom cleanup - remove some data you currently use but you do not need anymore. -> Add some requests If custom cleanup is active: list of add-ons, experimental settings, remove password list, etc. Create a new Profile Install all currently active add-ons Migrate all settings of Thunderbird Migrate all settings Thunderbird in the current Version is able to use Migrate accounts and also their mail filter rules Settings of migrated add-ons. Cleanup cached Mails Perform a Thunderbird start Migrate cached Mails -> May check ahead of the Migration if enough disk space is available Migrate requested Passwords. -> May ask for removing Password from the old profile If the whole migration was successful If every thing is successful and the next Thunderbird start was also successfully too, tar.xz the old Profile. ...

Hi, recently I just start to use Firefox...again. So, I notice Firefox already have the feature where user can register and login to sync their browser settings, but not all apparently. Please sync all settings once the user login to Firefox browser, like bookmarks, saved passwords, browsing history, browser appearances (light theme, dark theme, customized toolbar), so that when I use Firefox in another PC/laptop, I just need to login to my Firefox browser, and it will be appeared 100% exactly like the previous Firefox in my previous PC/laptop. Chrome does this, and I hope Firefox will too. ... View more
