Hi!

I tested this on Release 67.0 with Nexus 6P (Android 8.1.0) and I could not reproduce this issue. I followed the steps:

  1. Go to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla;
  2. From Menu go to "Find in page";
  3. In the "Find in page" bar, type "mozilla".

I get 19 results and I can see them by tapping on one of the arrows.

Nuccy: On what device did you find this behavior? Thanks!

Or with "Mozilla" instead of "mozilla", though same behaviour: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nGPvpgqceyZw7OCwN9Q8tRVzRzs_DW3-

Hi,

We tried to reproduce the issue with the closest device to yours, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, Android(6.0.1), with build: Firefox 67.0, but was not able to.
Both versions have been tried - "Mozilla" and "mozilla" but the results are shown, screenshot attached.

Have you tried with the latest versions of Firefox?

Regards,
Diana

I think so, the Settings->Mozilla Firefox->About Firefox page shows me that I have Firefox 67.0, Google Play also doesn't propose to update it. I did nothing special with my Firefox recently except is was updated automatically. I run the most recent stock MIUI Global 10.3.2.0 Stable except I have unlocked bootloader. I will try to clear caches/data first and then reinstall Firefox in case it might help, will reply to this thread later today.

Cleaning the cache from Android Settings solved the issue. Thanks for your help and investigation.

Hello,

Due to the fact the issue does no longer occur I will mark it as Works for me.
If the issue starts occurring again in the future feel free to reopen it.

Thanks
