How to load a temporary extension on Firefox for android?

I’ve been trying to test my extension on Firefox for android and I can’t figure out how to load a Temporary Extension on my phone.

I’ve tried with both the Firefox and the Nightly version, both on Desktop and on the phone. While I have no issue connecting to my phone via the debugger, there seems to be missing a “Load Temporary Add-on” button when looking at the device from the desktop browser.

Which is odd, because when connecting to the phone from the desktop browser, it does show a section for Temporary Add-on (0).

Going on the phone and to about:addons (Or Settings->Extensions), there will be a list of recommended extensions, but no way to manually load an extension either.

What am I missing here ?
Thank you! :slight_smile:

Of course I found my answer 5 seconds after posting.
