I tried to install/download uBlock origin through the official Firefox add-on “store” but it just tells me to install Firefox first. I’m using Firefox right now. Firefox is the only browser on my device… I tried to get another add-on but the issue stayed the same. How should i try to solve this?

Extensions for Firefox are only available for Firefox for Android and (desktop) Firefox for Windows, macOS, Linux.

There are currently no Extensions for Firefox for iOS/iPadOS due to Apple's restrictions on what browser engine can be used on iOS/iPadOS as Firefox in this case is using webkit. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-firefox-ios

desktop Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

Firefox for Android https://addons.mozilla.org/android/
