Enable JavaScript in Firefox on Mobile
Updated at: Mar 24, 2022
So, you want to enable or disable JavaScript on Firefox on your phone; there's just one thing...
This setting no longer exists on Firefox for mobile devices
Firefox on mobile devices (phones and tablets) no longer gives you the option to enable (or disable) JavaScript. As such, we can't give you a guide helping you to change this setting.
Why does this setting no longer exist?
So many websites these days are reliant on JavaScript to work at all, it seems the Mozilla team have taken the stance that allowing users to disable JavaScript causes more problems than it solves; and so this setting can't be changed any more.

Here are some guides for other web browsers like Safari or Chrome.
