    How do you mean? I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and aside from one website (my bank) everything I’ve tried to do with it has been perfectly fine. It even has adblock and videos play in the background. I’ve also not seen any issues with dark mode; I’m using dark mode right now, actually.

      By videos you also mean youtube videos? Because last time I tried firefox it could not do that.

      I have auto dark mode during night time. In the morning, my phone will switch to light mode, but parts of the Firefox UI do not. It will be half in and out of dark mode. Bottom toolbar will be dark, but the top bar (notifications, battery, etc.) will be white text against white background. In the mornings, Youtube videos frequently wont play until I restart the app.

        As far as I know, Firefox Mobile doesn’t have a bottom toolbar so I’m not really sure what you are referring to there (at least, there’s no bottom toolbar in Firefox on Android where I’m using it), and the notification/battery area is definitely not part of Firefox. It sounds like your phone’s system UI is providing those elements, and it’s likely not really fair to blame problems with the system UI on Firefox.

          Firefox on Android can be configured with the address / tab bar at the bottom - possibly this is what they’re referring to, but that also doesn’t dynamically change per site as far as I’m aware.

          It does have a bottom toolbar and was configured like that by default before. They must have changed the default some time ago.

          System UI is just standard Google Pixel UI and it reacts to apps signaling to it what color theme it’s in. Firefox just isn’t signaling it correctly. It also should be reacting normally to dark mode toggle but it doesn’t because the main Fx toolbar doesn’t change to light mode in the mornings. No other app has this issue.

        I totally agree, this has been my experience with FF mobile too. It’s not a killer but it is a bit annoying, especially for those of us who still do use light mode when outdoors on a bright day.
