If you can please add to firefox on android function when enabled, which will continue to play audio in the background when the smartphone screen is locked or switched to another application or switch to another tab of the browser. For example if listening to a podcast or listening to a video interview, I would like to be able to listen with the smartphone screen off.

Well, with a quick test. You can figure out that youtube web MOBILE pauses the audio if you tab out of the app, yet it works fine if you enable "desktop site" and do the same tabbing out. At some point ill switch over to stuff like invidious.io ... someday.

I agree. There has to be an option for background playback in the settings

They won't do that. Money makes the world go round.. Sad but true.
