Adding cookies in Mozilla Firefox depends on whether you are using the desktop version or the mobile app. Here's how to enable cookies in both:
Enabling Cookies on Firefox Mobile App (Android/iOS)
If you're using the Firefox app on your phone or tablet, follow these steps:
- Open the Firefox app.
- Tap Settings. (This may be in the form of a menu icon or a settings gear.)
- Go to Privacy & Security. This section manages privacy-related settings.
- Tap Allow cookies. This will enable cookies in your Firefox mobile app.
Managing Cookies on Firefox Desktop
While the reference doesn't directly address the desktop version, here’s how to manage cookies in Firefox desktop:
- Open Mozilla Firefox.
- Click the Menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner.
- Select Settings.
- Click Privacy & Security in the left sidebar.
- Under the "Cookies and Site Data" section, you have a few options:
- Standard: This is the default setting. It allows cookies from websites you visit.
- Strict: Blocks most cookies.
- Custom: Gives you fine-grained control over cookies.
Customizing Cookie Settings (Desktop)
If you choose "Custom," you can specify what types of cookies to block or allow.
- Cookies: Allows you to choose whether to block all third-party cookies, or only third-party cookies from trackers.
- Site data: Allows you to clear cookies and site data when Firefox is closed.
Clearing Existing Cookies (Desktop and Mobile)
You may also want to clear existing cookies from time to time. Both the desktop and mobile versions of Firefox provide options to clear cookies. These options are typically found within the Privacy & Security settings.
