Add-on stuck in "Awaiting Review" for over a month

Hi team,

I submitted my add-on “SparX Wallet” over a month ago, and it’s still in the Awaiting Review status.

Link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sparx-wallet/

Just wondering if this is normal, or if something might be holding it up. Happy to provide any additional info if needed.

Thanks in advance!

This long of a review period isn’t normal, but it does seem to be the current state of things, I’m afraid.

We have exactly the same issue, awaiting for over a month now on newly submitted addon. Is there some way we can further assist to make reviewer life easier? Our addon is completely open source and security audited product.

Hey @Tadeas_Kmentas. Unfortunately there’s not much that any individual developer can do to help right now. As I understand it the main issue is just the number of submissions that need to be reviewed vs reviewer capacity.

Is the average review time really a month long?
What if told you, there is an addon in the review queue, which I already reviewed :smiley: .

Seriously now, my addon will stop working on Firefox for Android 138 for some strange reason (TypeError: browser.contextualIdentities is undefined) and the I’m trying to release update that fixes it.

Also, do you know when should Firefox for Android land? I suppose Firefox needs be reviewed by the Play Store, hopefully that takes at least a week, right?

EDIT:
Yeah, the API got removed… now it makes sense:
