I must be missing something, but how do I publish my extension for the android browser?

Add-ons Firefox for Android Add-ons
#1

Currently my extension is published and searchable from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=

but when I try the same on mobile it cannot be found? How so?
How can I make sure it can be found from the mobile browser?

Hello @Jiri_Spac, can you please provide a link to your extension?

Thanks – Ed

Sure: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/authier/
I am suspecting it’s because I don’t have

“browser_specific_settings”: {
“gecko_android”: {}
}

am I on the right track?

I believe that is correct. Adding @dotproto to check my math.

You will know when you have done it correctly as there will be an indication on your desktop listing page that your extension is also Android compatible.

Yep, you’re on the right track!

There are two ways to tell AMO your extension is Android-compatible:

  1. Set browser_specific_settings in your manifest.json file (docs).
  2. Configure the application compatibility settings in AMO (docs).

Between the two #1 is the more robust of the two options (docs).
