Hello,

I tried to reproduce your issue on Release 68.0.2 and Nightly 70.0a1 (2019-08-28) but was unable to, could you please specify the model of the device and firmware that you are using? Also can you sent me the crash report found in about:crashes?

Thank you

Sure.

I'm using a Samsung galaxy s3 mini (model number GT-I8200) Android 4.2.2
Kernel version 3.4.5-2794522
Firefox 68.0.2

Here is the crash report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/5a283e92-2ce6-4e77-ad5c-b9b6f0190828

I use the "clear cookies on quit", I don't know if it is relevant.

Hello,

I have managed to reproduce your issue on Firefox 68.0.2 (the version available in the store), it was caused by bug 1556437.
The issues is fixed and it will no longer occur in the next update.

If you want a faster resolve to the issue you can download the latest Firefox Beta version from the Google Play Store.

I will mark the issue as resolved fixed but if the issue still occurs on the newer versions please reopen the issue.
