    Anybody seen this before?
    3 times Firefox has disappeared from my phone.
    I only use for certain websites that won't run on Chrome but its a pita having to reinstall it and reload all my bookmarks every week.

    Thats weird. Erm do you have any kind of cache/junk-file clearer installed that may be erroneously deleting it. Or an antivirus app?

    I've never used firefox on my phone, I use Opera Mini. That might work when Chrome won't too.

    Thanks. I do have anti virus. I'll check that.
    Opera may work also on these sites so I might give it a try.
    I've only had this issue on my new phone which I've only had a few weeks. My old android had no problems.

    The easiest way to see if it's the antivirus is to delete it completely and reboot your phone. Then reinstall firefox.
