How is it possible to force a hard reload on Firefox for Android?

On desktop it works with Ctrl + F5, but how does it work in the app?

    not sure if this is in the right place but base on Mozilla: To reload a page tap the 3 dot menu in the upper right and then in the menu that appears press the reload button. You can force a completely clean load of the page by long pressing on the reload button. – Riskbreaker Jan 26 '22 at 21:34

Open the menu (3 dots in the status bar) and press the reload button for a few seconds to force a hard page reload.

    This doesn't work me on firefox for android – Dennis Jan 18 '23 at 09:37
  • That is definitely how it used to work, but ever since Mozilla's 'simplification' of their android app, it is just a normal reload for me. – UmBottesWillen Jul 15 '23 at 14:20
  • It just did the trick for me after going crazy for a while trying to figure out why the new CSS style wasn't being picked up. Firefox 115.2.1 for Android. – blue Aug 04 '23 at 04:46
