Firefox android addon #17

Closed ayoung10 closed 1 year ago

ayoung10 commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to create a firefox android addon? Beta users can add any addon: https://www.androidpolice.com/firefox-beta-107-android-install-any-browser-add-on/

The chatGPT addon for firefox works this way on android when viewing google in desktop mode, but when switching back to mobile view it disappears.

did you enable Insert chatGPT at the top of search results, check Readme#install-to-android

I'm using Firefox for Android, which can't use the chrome extension.

Currently, custom add-on collections seem to only support adding addons that have already been uploaded to the store, but these chatGPT addons are not optimized for mobile devices.

This repository I maintain is indeed optimized for mobile devices, and you just need to enable Insert chatGPT at the top of search results, but I'm sorry, I haven't uploaded this addon to any app store, and there are currently no plans to do so.

As a result, the only way to use this addon on android is to install Kiwi Browser (This is not an advertisement, I just found that this browser can directly load local addons at present)

By the way, this repository is open source under MIT license (based on the MIT part of upstream), in fact you can upload it to the store by yourself.

@ayoung10 Firefox version is now available at https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/chatgptbox/ Install to Android: https://github.com/josStorer/chatGPTBox/wiki/Install#install-to-android

Due to the upstream repo being acquired and closed source, and there has been a period of time where issues and PRs in the upstream have gone unhandled. I decided to publish this extension to the store and keep open-source
