...just like we can set toolbars in Mac and Windows to auto-hide until we hover over them. I like having all this stuff within easy reach at the top, but it's just way too much clutter when I'm trying to focus on the page I'm using: Also occupies too much vertical real estate forcing scrolling on short pages that would other wise be fully viewable without. (Yes, I am VERY lazy! ;p) I'm aware of the option to set the toolbar to only show on new tabs, but no thanks, I'll take the clutter over that. ... View more

I find the pined tabs very useful, however I also find that mine occasionally time out.  I think it  would be useful to be able to left click on a pinned tab and select either a predefined or custom refresh interval so they do just sign me out or time out.  Something like left click, Reload Tab Every X min... and enter how often I want to refresh the page.       ...

A quite annoying "feature" of the CTRL+TAB cycling of recent tabs is that the the mouse pointer will focus the tab preview that appears, and thus making the cycling with CTRL+TAB completely illogical. Focusing a tab with the mouse pointer is FINE, but it should only happen when you actively move the mouse pointer. If the mouse pointer is just idly placed on the middle of the screen somewhere, it should not change the tab cycle focus. ... View more

I often use "Send tab to device" from my desktop to my mobile (iOS) to send friends links. This results in a notification toast that says "Tab received" and then shows the URL of the page. I am wondering if it would be possible to add the ability to hard press (i.e. "3D/haptic touch") on these notifications to copy the URL directly, so we don't have to go into the Firefox mobile app to copy it. ...

First of all, kudos on the recent introduction of the vertical tab feature! It's a fantastic addition that helps maximize vertical screen real estate — something I and many others really appreciate. I enabled hiding the tab list by default to gain even more usable space. While this does work well for a cleaner look, it does come with a tradeoff: losing visual cues for open tabs — like how many tabs are open or which one I'm currently on. I suggest implementing a Tab Preview feature when pressing Ctrl+Tab, similar to how Windows shows app previews when you use Alt+Tab. ... View more

It would be great if users could swipe up from the bottom toolbar in the Firefox iOS app to access the tab selection screen, as this gesture feels intuitive for iPhone users 😄 ... View more

Currently, the sidebar allows account access and switching (tested with ChatGPT), and changing the account in the sidebar also changes the account logged into ChatGPT in my main browser tabs. This presents a problem for users like me who rely on Firefox Containers to manage multiple accounts. My typical setup is: Default (non-container) environment: Logged into my work/school account. Personal container: Used for casual conversations, silly questions, and random chats. The issue is that the sidebar is not container-aware. When I log into my personal account via the sidebar, it also overrides the account in my non-container tabs—disrupting the separation I rely on. Proposed solutions: Enable Firefox Container support in the sidebar, so users can assign container contexts to the sidebar session. Isolate sidebar authentication from main tab sessions, allowing sidebar usage to remain independent regardless of tab logins. Either of these changes would greatly improve the experience for users who juggle multiple accounts and rely on containers for clean separation. ... View more

 Problem Statement: Modern users often manage dozens of tabs spread across multiple Firefox windows. This creates clutter, makes it difficult to locate tabs, and affects productivity. There’s currently no built-in feature to efficiently merge and organize tabs across windows. Proposed Solution: Smart Tab Merge Introduce a feature called "Smart Tab Merge" that allows users to: Merge multiple open windows into a single window Group tabs based on relevance, tasks, or user preference Create named tab groups (e.g., "Work", "Shopping", "Research") Collapse/expand tab groups as needed Easily switch between tab groups using a dropdown or sidebar  Key Features: Merge multiple windows into one with drag-and-drop or a “Merge Windows” button Create and name tab groups for easy navigation Navigate between tab groups using a left sidebar or dropdown on the tab bar Optional: AI-assisted grouping suggestions based on tab content or domains Benefits: Improves tab and window organization Increases productivity during research or multitasking Reduces memory usage by limiting the number of open windows Makes Firefox more user-friendly and workspace-oriented  Inspiration: Inspired by tab grouping in Chrome and tools like OneTab — but with advanced merge, group, and organize capabilities built directly into the browser. ...

A wonderful feature in Firefox of some tab extensions like Sideberry is that it lets you set actions for mouse events like double-clicking, long press, to name 2 that are very useful and you could do it on right or left click. When you perform these actions with the mouse on a tab you can map them to some actions like refresh tab, duplicate tab, mute tab, set tab refresh time, etc etc. Again sideberry extension is a good reference for this but it would be amazing for usability of tabs in Firefox to be able to map such mouse actions to tab actions. ...

Hello, I'm currently using vertical tabs and tab groups features in firefox and am extremely in love with both of them so here are some suggestions to make these more powerful. These are what I assume simple to implement but have very high impact on UX. 1. Multiple tab select: While using tab groups, I often want to select multiple tabs and don't want to use the mouse to do so, for which this suggestion: Keyboard Shortcut to Select multiple, or all Tabs - Enhancement Suggestion would be extremely useful. My recommendation is to also implement Ctrl+shift+alt+home/end to select tabs to the beginning and tabs to the end. This will also allow selecting multiple tabs and close with ctrl+W very quickly. PS. also some missing keyboard shortcuts such as this Tab wrap - ctrl + home or ctrl + end would also be really useful. 2. Keyboard shortcut to group selected tabs: Finally add a keyboard shortcut to group the selected tabs. Currently I'm testing nightly vertical tabs on-hover and I find it clunky to group tabs properly so this not only gives users more options but makes unexpected ff UI behaviors manageable.  ...

I use Firefox on both my PC and my mobile Android device. I primarily browse and search via my mobile device since it's convenient to search for something and start reading about it on the go; more often than not coming back to that browsing tab but on my PC - where my IDE is located. Gone are the days where I have to type the URL from the mobile into my PC browser - simply fetch them via the nifty menu where my mobile's browsing tabs are shown. This is awesome - if you're going to open one tab. Sometimes I have 6 or more tabs with content related to my search that I want to display on my PC browser. How? Well, you have to open a tab then go fetch the open tab I'm interested in. Open another tab and fetch the next open tab from my mobile. Open yet another tab and fetch the third open tab. And on we go. Not very efficient. It would be great if one could open multiple tabs by using a context-menu that allows you to quickly right-click and Open In New Tab for each entry we would like to restore. Or give the user some option that allows them to choose which open tabs from the chosen device they would like to restore.  ... View more

The vertical tab experience is pretty good atm, but one thing really annoys me is that it won't keep scroll position between mouseover when you enabled the feature "expand on mouseover"! it would just jump back to the top, and I've mis-clicked other tabs many times, pretty annoying! Hope it would just keep where it scrolls to when mouse leaves, and the I can just click the tab I want without wait it to expand and scroll back again. ... View more

control + left click = open link at new tab shift + left click  = open link at new window alt +left click =select text(not open link)    I suggest add shortcut "alt + right click" to open link at new tab in same group(create new group if no group) Scene: When I searh question in google,I type "how learn kotlin" And tpye "entry" key.I find 3 websites of interested. Some time click search result link and open link in same tab,i can't open next result.So i use control + left click to open link at new tab，but it not enough. I want open kotlin doc ,kotlin learn route,kotlin guide and search tab in a tab group. Now,I need open 3 website and drag tab to group or select 3 tab ,right click new tab group.It's too troublesome！！ So，I want add shortcut to open new tab in group. when your work too many,this way can save many operation. ...

It has already been brought here the idea of being possible to close a tab (when vertical side bar is collapsed) without having to expand it, which, by the way, is an excellent one. Another thing I find important, is not to allow, when vertical side bar is collapsed, to the upper right close windows button (x), once clicked, to close at once all tabs and the browser. Should be some confirmation (close all tabs?). Thing is it is kind intuitive to hit that close button to close the active tab. Once you do and all your tabs are gone, you realize you've just hit the close window button. ... View more

For example, I have too many recipe tabs open. Let me create a tab for recipes and put them all in there and let the main recipe tab function like a drop down menu. I realize this is very similar to bookmarks, but for me, things have a tendency to get put there for future reference and are often forgotten and lost there.  In order to access sites in bookmarks, I've got to go to bookmarks/manage bookmarks  and then I'm thrown into a separate window from the browser. The vertical tabs could contain current ideas and be moved to the bookmarks later, after I've dealt with them. ... View more

Currently, when I close the last tab of a tab group, the group disappears, and I have to manually create it again. I prefer groups over containers because, most of the time, I don’t need the separation of cookies and profiles that containers offer. At least, make the created groups available when I create a new tab group so that I can simply choose an existing one. ... View more

The new tab group in the beta works great on both Mac and Windows. I really appreciate it. However, I prefer to have the vertical tabs on the right side. The group color line still stays on the left, which becomes invisible depending on the background color of the website. Could you please move the group color line to the right side (along with the right edge) when it is on the right side? ... View more

I think it would be easier if Tabs become a section in the Library, like History and Bookmarks. It would make it easier to manage the open tabs and to close them or save them as bookmarks. And maybe integrate the functions and tools of "browsing across windows and devices" so everything it's done from the same place. Thank you! ... View more

Hi, I used to use horizontal tabs and today I updated firefox, found out that there is vertical tabs feature, and I set it out! When I was browsing with horizontal tabs, I use `cmd` + `left/right` to navigate between tabs. Intuitively thinking, I thought I could navigate with `cmd` + `up/down` on vertical tabs but it didn't work out. As visual representation changes, I think it should handle its navigation command vertically also. ... View more
