Hi everyone,
I’m new here.
I was just wondering what the typical review timeline is for a new Firefox add-on submission.
For comparison, I submitted the extension to both Firefox and Chrome around the same time, and the Chrome version has already been approved (version bumped) and published. I’m a Firefox user myself, so I’m looking forward to making it available there as well.
Hoping to get a better idea of what the usual timeline looks like so I know what to expect.
Thanks!
Hi, and welcome to the community!
There isn’t a fixed timeline for add-on reviews. We manually review new submissions to keep users safe, and we have been seeing a large influx of add-ons lately, so wait times can vary. We recently made a public post addressing that issue.
One thing that genuinely helps speed things up: include your source code with the submission. It makes it much easier for the reviewer to verify everything quickly.
In the meantime, your add-on is in the queue and will be reviewed. If it has been an unusually long time, feel free to reply here with your add-on ID and I will take a look.
Thank you for your patience.
Thanks for the reply, Chris! It actually got approved just a few hours before you replied.
Really appreciate you taking the time to respond anyway. And thanks to you and the rest of the review team for all the work you do, especially with the recent influx of submissions.
