Can add ons access your data
I really like firefox add ons but there is something which resists me to use them. They ask the permission to data. If I give them the permission, can they see my private data such as password entered on sites, online banking requirements etc. Please tell me what data they can access?

These extensions for Android Firefox are definitely safe, they have been reviewed by a specialist from Mozilla.
"Access all the data for all the websites" usually means access to the DOM tree, which is needed to remove ads, or do additional styling; nothing scary.
Okay, thanks. I used leechblock extension on firefox and due to some reason my phone was formatted, so when I reinstall firefox I didn't find leechblock extension and I can't download pdf from firefox. However both my problem are resolved by using beta app. Why did these things happen on the non beta version, and tell any solution please.
We are looking to make more add-ons and features available in future updates to Firefox for Android.
