Tablet UI for Firefox

By: Petr
This add-on re-implements the tab bar from desktop we all love, on Android tablets, on Firefox. It has all the familiar buttons like back, forward, reload and new tab. You can scroll the list of your opened tabs, you can close or duplicate tabs

Features & Capabilities

How to install: Download Firefox Nightly or Firefox Beta from Google Play Open Firefox Nightly or Firefox Beta settings, open About Firefox there Tap the Firefox logo on that page 5 times, the advanced options appear Go back to see all settings Under Addons, select Your own Addon collection Paste the following for user id: 15613358 and for collection name: Android-compatible-addons-by-J Open the Addons menu in Firefox (three dots - Addons - Addons Manager) There select the addon you'd like to install. There are currently two, this one and Get RSS Feed URL.

How to use: When you start the app, the tab bar will only see the tab which is loaded. To load more of your tabs, swipe right or left the adress bar or select them in the tab switcher: Due to Firefox restrictions, the addon only sees tabs loaded in memory.

There are also settings: you can set which buttons you want to see, the font size, show the bar on top or on bottom, the tab bar height, the search page used when you press the new tab button.

Sometimes when using the tab bar on top of the screen, cookies prompts may be pushed down: No worries, there is a menu for that (long press the new tab button, see screenshots)

There are some restrictions: The new tab button can only open websites right now, it can't open the browser new tab: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1782389 It will not work on protected pages like addons.mozilla.org

Is Tablet UI for Firefox Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
