Firefox ios v 18.1 (15719) Hide Images is broken since last update

Since the ios update on the 17th July 2019, the Hide Images option does not work. Firefox ios v 18.1 (15719)

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Start FF
2. Settings -> enable Hide Images
3. Open any website.
4. All images are loaded and displayed
5. Settings -> Toggle Hide Images : Result Images are hidden.
6. Open new tab with Hide Images enabled -> Images are loaded and displayed.

In other words, I have to load a site with images first before I can hide the images, which defeats the purpose. Before the update I could open sites with Hide Images enabled and the images did not display ( and I hope were not downloaded).

My mobile data plan is back to being raped, and I've stopped surfing, because I only used Firefox because I have a 500Mb mobile data plan per month.

Is this a known problem or an intentional change/Feature?

Regards.

Hi, Soph. Thanks for your contribution. This is not a intentional change. This is a new issue that we will track and discuss here : https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/5270.

Hi Simon, Thank-you so much for the confirmation. An hour earlier I opened a bug here:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1567162

Many thanks, Soph
