Hi,

there are several addons for desktop firefox that I would like to use with my mobile firefox (android 4). Is it possible to make them compatible for mobile firefox?

Thanks for help!

hello, there's no easy way for endusers to make addons compatible for firefox on android. you'd have to contact the developers of those addons directly and petition them nicely to port them to firefox mobile. most pages on addons.mozilla.org contain a link to a website with more support information or a mail-address for contacting authors of an extension...

Hi XenonX3,

I'm afraid not. Add-ons for mobile firefox are different because the browser itself is very different.

There is information on firefox mobile development here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/deve.../mobile.html

Do check https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/ to see if any of those extensions or similar have have been made for mobile Firefox.
