Firefox за Android Форум

I am beyond frustrated (had to create an account to submit this) trying to install the 'Bypass Paywalls Clean (D) addon, where it's permission to install prompt covers the entire screen, without an option to scroll down to the bottom to install it (developer put all of the text from the description, in the wrong place, is what I suspect).

I Uploaded a video to youtube of this happening in Firefox version 123.1.0, apparently also impacting 124.0.

How can this be corrected? I attached a screenshot too.

I am writing to seek assistance regarding a challenge I have encountered while attempting to install a custom add-on from a file.

I have followed the steps to enable the debug menu on Firefox Nightly, and I have also successfully downloaded the custom add-on in XPI format to my mobile device. However, upon navigating to the Add-ons settings, I am unable to locate the option to install the add-on from a file.

I have reviewed the official documentation and community forums for guidance, but I have not found a solution specific to my situation.

Could you kindly provide detailed instructions on how to install a custom add-on from a file on Firefox Nightly for Android? If there have been any recent changes or updates in this regard, I would greatly appreciate any information or resources you could share. Thank you for your time and assistance. I value the work Mozilla does to enhance the Firefox experience and am eager to resolve this matter.

Best regards, Saad

Tried reading articles on mozilla's website to get some kind of Assistance or Direction on privacy protection however an add-on that was suggested from Mozilla and their site was reported as not secure please advise me of my next steps are really appreciate your assistance seems like lately since I've tried to protect myself more I'm becoming more and more vulnerable

I just added the attached add-ons and now I'm being blocked from subscribed sites and others. I think it's related to Java Script as it says on the add-on No Script 11.4.21. How do I remove that add-on? Is there any others I should remove?

As of late in Firefox Android I cannot get any add on to install. I've temporarily disabled 'YouTube high definition' after some strange behavior and when I tried to reinstall it or ANY of the list of curated addons I get the same failed to install message. I can no longer download any of the addons and I can't seem to figure out why. I've restarted and cleared cache multiple times but it doesn't work. Any solutions?

The very old architectural version of FFA had a plugin that enabled viewing image ToolTips by long-pressing an image. That plugin was not supported in the newer FFA.

Since then, I have to turn on my PC to use FFW to see them with the mouse.

IMHO, FFA is missing very basic functionality that I've patiently waited years to return to the newest FFA, but to no sucess.

Thank you.

For over a decade, mobile users have had no addons for browsers (including Firefox,) how much longer will this last? There are like 10 sponsored addons (out of 10 million for desktop) that install, the rest only let you download the .xpi file (with nowhere to put the file.) Where is the mobile Firefox extensions folder to put the .xpi files for mobile Firefox? I have been waiting for over a decade for such basic support, I am about to abandon Android forever.

The Firefox for Android add-ons section (yes, I made sure I was in the 'for Android' add-ons web address, as opposed to the 'desktop add-ons' web address) is saying "You'll need Firefox to use this extension" and not allowing me to install add-ons as the page employs a download firefox link that leads to an "Open" button in the Google Play Store, as I already have Firefox installed. I have tried many different add-ons to test if the issue is isolated to a single add-on and to test if it is an add-on compatibility issue, and it seems to be a consistant issue with all add-ons. Yes my underlying operating system (Android), and the Firefox for Android app are both up-to-date with the latest versions. I have located the Firefox support page labeled "Unable to install add-ons (extensions or themes)" and was able to work through the the list of potential issues and their solutions, to determine that every item on the list was either inapplicable or not the problem/solution. What am I missing?

I think it was Firefox 52 or somewhere around the time that Firefox 52 came out, there was an addon that allowed users to spoof their device. I could make my Android phone appear to various websites, to be a Computer, a Tablet, an iphone, etc. Does Firefox still have that Addon? If so, how can I download it? If not, does anyone know where I might find a similar one?

Thank You.

Hi

I have installed firefox on my Samsung S 6 tablet (bought 2022). I can't get Firefox to show a task bar (or bookmarks menu - but the bookmarks do exist from sync) and I can't add in 1password. I synced with my desktop (where firefox and 1 password work perfectly well) and tried everything I can from online suggestions - but either they haven't worked or some of the settings they refer to don't exist in the Android version of firefox. 1 Password - which is also installed on the device - does not show up in the list of add ons accessed via the Firefox 3-dot menu; and doesn't show up either if 1 password is open or closed . I've wasted hours on this and getting nowhere. Any help would be appreciated

Thankyou RC

I used to be able to change add-on settings from the hamburger menu. Specifically no-script what scripts could run. Now when I select add-ons from the menu it brings me to a list of installed addons but does not allow any add-on settings to be set. I have not yet found another way and has rendered my mobile Firefox useless. What is the new way to adjust add-on settings?

Suggestions for Firefox for Android

Since the built-in password manager is not good enough in terms of security and functionality, (and I don't think it will be good enough for the foreseeable future), it would actually be a good idea to build an app instead of the built-in one, or to choose a third party app as a partner as an official recommendation, and so forth.

I find the browser's ad-blocking features to be very unorganized, repetitive, and not easy to use. I wish you could build a comprehensive enough and personalized built-in pan-ad blocker.

And please allow the beta version's custom "add-ons collection" to be added to the official version

Anyway, there are many problems and many solutions, I hope Firefox will be better and better.

Thanks.

Hi, google.co.uk search page appears differently in Firefox when compared to other browsers. Specifically there is a menu option missing. For me this is a significant inconvenience so I'm hopeful you can tell me what I'm doing wrong. I have attached two images to highlight what I'm asking about, I've circled in red the menu items that don't display (for me) in Firefox.

Many thanks... Mark

I am using Firefox version 105.1.0 . I just want to make sure that all web sites not suitable for kids up to 12 years old are blocked. I did some searching. People say that there is no parental control build in for Firefox on Android. I have to use add-ons. I started Firefox and select Add-on. I can see a list of "Recommended". I saw no Parental control and there is no search option. Can you tell me how to do this ?
