- Rated 4 out of 5by Myrddin R Emrys, 2 years agoIt has worked great to allow me to use Firefox to create a better-running NightRide.fm app than the chrome-based one otherwise available.
Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by GeorgeKerols, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13838550, 3 years agoGreat extension but the installation process is a bit complex. EDIT : modified my review for 5 stars, the installation is a bit complex yes, but it's entirely worth it! Cannot live without it after 2 months of intensive use (for Google Drive/Google Docs, Google Keep, Messenger, Android Message, etc.)
- Rated 4 out of 5by tobias hochguertel, 3 years agoWorks so far well, but has the downside, that it runs complete seperated from the desktop firefox instance. I use it do have gmail as APP icon, and window seperated next to Firefox Browser open, but it has the downside that all Links which I click get open in the PWA instance, and not get handeled by the operation system setuped default app for links. I'm sure in the future that will get solved.

- Rated 5 out of 5by gsak3l, 3 years agoExactly what I needed. It doesn't just replace Chromium's PWA's but it makes it better since I can have different addons on different apps.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Renan Santos, 3 years agoAbre o webapp no perfil "default" ao invés do "default-release" o que atrapalha o uso, por exemplo quando você vai abrir um link.

posted 3 years agoUnfortunately, I don't really know what do you mean by this. PWAs use completely separate profiles, so it shouldn't matter which profile you use on your main Firefox. If you want to sync data between your main profile and PWAs, I recommend you use Firefox Account/Sync or a third-party sync solution.
If you mean that opening a link from PWA in a default browser opens your link in a wrong profile, then go to "about:profiles" in your main Firefox and set the correct profile as default.
If you think there is some bug or other problem, please open an issue/discussion on GitHub (and write it in English if possible). - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13513192, 3 years agoEsta extensión lleva meses sin actualizarse para ser compatible con las versiones más recientes de Firefox, al menos en mi instalación de Flatpak de este navegador.
Es lamentable, porque parece que es el único complemento que existe para permitir la instalación de sitios web como aplicaciones web progresivas en este catálogo. Recomiendo esperar a ver si se actualiza de nuevo o a que surja un competidor.Developer response
posted 3 years agoI released an update that fixes compatibility with Firefox 101.0 yesterday, but it hasn't been approved by Mozilla yet. Until it's approved, you will have to manually download the native program from GitHub: https://github.com/filips123/PWAsForFirefox/releases/tag/v1.4.2
Flatpak (and Snap) currently cannot work because of sandboxing limitations (and the same is true for any extension that uses native messaging API). This cannot be fixed until native messaging is supported by Flatpak and Firefox. You will have to use normal Firefox. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17433041, 3 years agoAmazing piece of software. Setup is easy and relatively quick.
- Rated 5 out of 5by agustinvillena, 3 years agoIt works! And the new apps run as seprated processes, so I can now manager volume for each one in Windows (great for youtube and spotify)
