Hi

OneTab is only designed for Firefox on the desktop and not Firefox for Android.

Add-ons are developed and supported by a community of independent developers and it looks like the developer of this add-on has not made OneTab for Firefox for Android.

I believe this is a very simple extension to get running on Android. I use Firefox for Android for its support of extensions. I believe this is a bug of FireFox not supportiing this functionality. I understand that it is a different platform, but I believe functionality should be consistent across all platforms to have the best user experience.

See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1629748

Yes, Firefox for Android is designed differently, but this is an issue for the developer of that add-on, not Firefox itself.

Right but wrong actually. The problem is in the way firefox behaves, because this shows up in sync too.

I am sorry, but I do not understand what you mean.

Is your issue about Firefox for Android about this add-on of Firefox Sync?

The more clear information you can provide, the better we can help you.

I believe the same behavior is triggered as both problems have to do with the tab implementation. So I see similar behavior in Sync (maybe not the backend tho, which is what I think you are asking), and in the extension. Maybe the solution is to have a new API that enumerates all tabs, regardless of whatever is stopping it now.

What is the behavior that you are seeing that is wrong? What are the two problems you are seeing?

Both are the same type of problem where Fennec doesnt allow all tabs to show thru to the extension (or Sync).

Ok. At present you cannot sync open tabs, but this is something that may be included in a future update.
