I am using Firefox nightly on Android. About two weeks ago I noticed that my toolbar got moved to the bottom after some update, while address bar is still at the top. I tried looking for it in settings but couldn't find anything about toolbar, that's weird since I was able to customize it a few years ago when I installed Firefox for the first time. So I looked it up on the internet and they say that it's in Settings/Customize/Toolbar, but in my browser settings instead of Toolbar there is Address bar settings. Has toolbar's settings been moved somewhere else? It looks like in previous versions it was under Customize section.

The second attached image is from this video:

It looks like A/B test in Nightly. You can turn it off in Secret Settings.

I see above how this has been solved, however I can't find anything about "Enable navigation tool" in the 'about:config' settings. What a exactly is it called? I'm using Firefox nightly on Android as well.

Hello Ty, what is it called in secret settings? I am assuming "secret settings" is 'about:config'. Thank you for your help

No, it's not about:config.

  1. Tap on three-dot menu in the toolbar
  2. Tap on Settings

Ty, thank you a million. Why something so simple as this has to be buried in a secret menu that's NOT in the about:config is beyond me. Seems very foolish. Anyway, thank you so much.
