Browser extensions are super useful on desktop platforms, but mobile browsers rarely support them. This week, Firefox for Android is taking a big step in changing that with support for over 450 new extensions available now.
As Mozilla details in a blog post, it is this week opening support for hundreds of extensions for Firefox on Android, with those extensions available via the Mozilla Firefox Add-On Store.
Mozilla explains:
While the functionality is still pretty new, there are already some trending extensions available. Those include YouTubeUtils (which adds extra functionality to YouTube’s mobile website), RedditAnnoyances (which blocks the “Continue with App” prompt), Android Scroll Bottom (which adds a menu button to jump to the bottom of a webpage), and Ink for Google (a third-party extension which applies a Material Design revamp to several Google websites).
You’ll need the latest version of Firefox to get started, available now in the Play Store.
