  • I’ve just spent another 45 minutes trying to install add-ons via Fennec ONLY. It just doesn’t work. I only have access to “approved” extensions.

    However, when I go to my custom collection in a desktop browser I have full access to firefox addons (as you described we would)–but I have to first search and add them to the collection from the desktop browser.

    When that’s completed, THEN I can go to Fennec and navigate to the collection and tap the “+” sign to install them into Fennec.

    🤷‍♂️

  • It wasn’t at ALL clear to me that this entire process takes place in two DIFFERENT Firefoxes: one on a desktop or laptop install and THEN on your android device!! Maybe I read thru the instructions too fast (real men don’t read instructions 😉 ) but they all seem to say “…open Firefox…” without being clear WHICH Firefox they’re referring to.

    I’ve now spent close to 3 hours trying to get 3 extensions to work/load properly into Fennec on the Android… Back to Kiwi! “It just works…” 😡
