Did you search for it in a Download folder?

PS. Please read Find and install Add-ons on Firefox for Android.

Hi, It is not in the download folder. I read "Find and install Add-ons on Firefox for Android." but see nothing relevant there. Clicking on the "three dots", and then add-on manager, it is not in that limited list. I use this add-on on my laptop (in firefox browser) so i know that it is compatible...in that instance. I had been using firefox focus, but on reading that add-ons are not possible with this, decided to get the full Firefox version, now it seems that may have been pointless. Ah well such is life. I have deleted the app...for that is what it appears to be rather than an add-on (not that i really know if there is any difference).

thanks for the suggestions though.

Do you mean this one on the Mozilla Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/android/addon/archive-page/ -- that one isn't compatible with Android.

They do have an app in the Google Play store called Share2Archive: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.navasgroup.share2archive&hl=en_US&gl=US

I have not tried it myself, but my guess is that you would open Firefox menu, open Share, then find that app and send it the URL of the page.
