M3MBAH commented 1 year ago

Hello !

Please help me, this bug is so anoying ^^

Steps to reproduce

Open firefox on IOS, the google page ask for cookie and privacy

Closing the tab, and opening a new tab, then google doesn't ask me for cookie etc.

Closing agin the tab, and I have the dark mode activated that I want.

Expected behavior

So, I have to close 3 times to get the right configuration I want. (Google dark mode + without cookie asking, and logged in my google account).

Actual behavior

Google asking for cookie and no dark mode and not logged in my google account...

Device & build information

Notes

I have uninstalled Firefox on IOS. Reinstalled it, if I don't connect my firefox account for sync, the problem is not present.

If I connect my firefox account, the problem is present

Same here, it’s annoying. I also noticed that at startup I’m not logged into my google account. If you wait a few seconds and just hit refresh page, Firefox correctly loads both profile and cookies consent

I think this might be the same issue as https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/12279

It seems that there were some cookie related fixes on v.112 (#12740) but unfortunately this bug is still occurring at least for me.

It actually happens on the first tab that is opened after Firefox is started. So if I close Firefox with no tabs, then launch it again, the tab that opens does not load my cookies, if I open a second tab it loads cookies properly. Another way of fixing this is by refreshing the page some times.

Update: It seems that the refresh workaround I described above is no longer working on v.112.

I am back with a further update. I have reasonable suspicions that this problem occurs only when the "close private tabs" option (that closes the private tabs when leaving private mode) is enabled. Can somebody try?

What I did was:

  1. I removed Firefox from my iPhone (iOS 16.4.1)
  2. Re-installed Firefox v.112
  3. Did not sign it to Sync
  4. Opened some pages (e.g. Google.com, Google.gr) and accepted cookies
  5. I signed in to my Sync account and I enabled the "Strict" protection from trackers

(All the above might be irrelevant but I report them just for completeness)

Then when I tried closing Firefox with the "close private tabs" enabled, the first tab opened after Firefox starts has this issue, if I disable it, it does not occur when I open Firefox.

I then tried re-enabling the "close private tabs" option, the issue occurs on the first tab.

That worked for me !!!

Big thanks 🗡️

That works for me too. I didn't even have to reinstall Firefox. Just going to Settings and disabling "close private tabs" was enough for me.
