Hi!

Yes, remote debugging should still work fine 🙂

If you are trying to debug Firefox for Android on your emulator, be aware that it is based on Firefox ESR (v68), so you _need_ to connect to it from Firefox Desktop ESR68.

You can download Firefox ESR at [Download Firefox in English (US) and more than 90 other languages](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr)

Our backward compatibility policy only supports a gap of 2 versions. This means that Firefox for Android (aka Fennec) can only be debugged from: Firefox 68, Firefox 69 and Firefox 70. Since Firefox release channel is now Firefox 72, the only compatible release officially available is ESR68.
