Firefox Extension not installable on Android #6
Comments
Installing and configuring the extension is possible if you use a Firefox version / fork (like Firefox Nightly or Fennec) that allows adding a custom addon collection. However it looks like the Omnibox API is not fully supported on Android. I've tried it and there aren't any results by using the Possible relevant issues:
Besides I also haven't been able to find the extension shortcut to add a bookmark. |
Yeah I can't get it to work anymore either on Android. It worked before they reworked it. |
It is now possible to install on the latest version of Firefox on Android. To do so, you must view the addon page in desktop mode and then install it. Then to add your credentials, you must navigate to the addon specifically through the settings menu. Then to add bookmarks, just open the menu, tap on addons, then Add Bookmark. It's a little clunky, but it works. |
An idea here could be to inject an icon into the page if we are on mobile, which would then popup an overlay when you click on it to save the bookmark. |
Thanks for this. I was able to use desktop go to download the extension but it never occurred to me to launch the add-on manually to trigger bookmarking |

is not available on the new firefox version on android (firefox 88.1.3).
It says, that the extension is incompatible with firefox android on the store page.
