Firefox Mobile extension support

[ghost]

Any plans for making Firefox mobile extension?

Thanks! :)

Web extension are open now on mobile?
Last time I checked, only some extension (like ublock origin) was allowed.

Cant answer your question right now, but what i figured out is..
when you open Lesspass extension in Mobile Firefox
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lastpass-password-manager/
there is a link to extension listing
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/
and it is rougly 10 to 20 extension?

If you use Firefox sync, you should have LessPass web extension on mobile.
Please re open if it's not possible

If you use Firefox sync, you should have LessPass web extension on mobile.

Can you elaborate? Firefox Sync is built-in feature of Firefox? How does it relates to LessPass?

[guillaumevincent]

I don't know if it's still the case. But if you use Firefox Sync, and install LessPass on Firefox Desktop, LessPass will be installed on your mobile

Not anymore or at least not for me. i have Firedox Desktop with Sync and Lesspass, but Mobile with Sync lacks Lesspass.

I'm reopening it, since we lack the support, see

For mobile it's missing
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/search/?promoted=recommended&sort=random&type=extension

For desktop it present
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/lesspass/

Update
Actually, i lack permission to reopen it XD

Recommended extensions are editorially curated extensions that meet the highest standards of security, functionality, and user experience. Firefox staff, along with community participation, selects each extension and manually reviews them for security and policy compliance before they receive Recommended status. These extensions may also qualify for promotions on the AMO homepage and other prominent locations. Developers cannot pay to have their extensions included in this program.

I cannot choose to be a recommended extension. Somebody at @mozilla decided that I cannot have the recommended badge anymore. I don't know why. I don't have time to look at it right now.

I can use recommended or not, but I'd like to use it anyway.

So, Is it possible to use extension for Firefox Mobile (how?)? To my knowledge, it's not. So, would be awesome to have this issue open and fixed.

If you simply have other priorities, sure I'm with you.

Let's reopen this, but I don't know how to solve it right now.
From my rapid understanding, LessPass should be a recommended extension, and this is something I don't have the control on.

You can install a limited number of extensions from the Recommended Extensions program to add features to Firefox for Android. This article explains how to find, install and manage these extensions.

Will more extensions be supported in the future?
We would like to enable support for more extensions on the new Firefox for Android experience and we are currently evaluating ways we can do so without introducing the compatibility and security issues from the previous version of our mobile browser for Android. We'll provide updates as soon as we have more details.

As per the last question at https://mzl.la/3Acn4DU, I emailed amo-featured [at] mozilla [dot] org with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lesspass/. I hope this helps to make LessPass a recommended extension.
