Mozilla firefox addons update check5/30/2023 The Nightly package updates frequently and is several times the size of the Release and Beta packages, presumably because of debug symbols. ![]() The suggested workaround of using Nightly is a non-starter. (And it’s a required workaround for the aggressive memory eviction on Android.) You are “wrapping up” plans to enable extension support at 18 extensions out of thousands. If I am reading correctly, this is only a change to the installation method, and the actual state of extension support remains unchanged. Why won’t you allow users to load xpi files like on the desktop and older versions of Firefox for Android? I still use version 68.11.0 because of this, and I know I am not alone. Hello why i already have the version 85 for android installed if the are coming on 25th only? We’ll be sure to provide more updates on this blog about extensions in Fenix as they become available. As a reminder, you can use an override setting to install other extensions listed on AMO on Firefox for Android Nightly. In the upcoming months, we’ll continue to work on optimizing add-on performance on mobile. This wraps up our initial plans to enable extension support for Firefox for Android. These buttons will only work if you are using a pre-release version of Firefox for Android until version 85 is released on Tuesday, January 25. We hope this update provides a smoother installation experience for mobile users.Īs a quick note, we plan to enable the installation buttons on AMO during our regularly scheduled site update on Thursday, January 21. Previously, extensions for mobile devices could only be installed from the Add-ons Manager, which caused some confusion for people accustomed to the desktop installation flow. ![]() Starting with Firefox 85, which will be released January 25, 2021, Firefox for Android users will be able to install supported Recommended Extensions directly from (AMO).
