FF does not let me enter new url or search terms!

more options

Using iOS 9.1 on IPad AIr 2.

No problem with new installed Firefox. But after building up history of visited websites, FF does not accept new entries in the address/search field. It always auto-completes my entry with existing URLs out of my visit history after the first 2 entered letters.

What am I doing wrong?

Thx, Michael

Chosen solution

Found the problem: it only appears, if I use the Swype addon keyboard, which I installed. It works fine with the standard keyboard.

Still annoying, but at least I know how to avoid.

Cheers, Michael

Dear Michael, There are few things that you must fix, because i don't have a lot of information about your problem.

1) Go to settings >> General >> Keyboard >> Then disable Auto-Correction & Check Spelling

2) When that show up click on X botton and disable it That's result of writing fast.

Hope you solwed the problem :D

Still same Problem with Swype and Firefox. Also tried SwiftKey. Works fine with every app, but also not with Firefox!

Seems to be a FF issue....
