I have a Kobo ARC version 4.1.1 I try to add Autofill as an add-on. SELECTING THE DOWNLOAD NOW button seems to download something but my tablet doesn't show anything actually downloaded. The autofill does not show up in the add-on list in firefox. There was no install option appeared. My version is Firefox for Android 44.0.2

Hi

Yes, this is not an add-on developed by Mozilla.

If you have a look at the right hand side of the add-on page you will see a link to the Add-on home page which should have details of how to contact the developers for support.

Hi

I recommend you speak to the developer of that add-on who should be able to provide guidance and support for the software that they have produced.

Everything I see makes it appear to be Mozilla is the author

The vast majority of Extensions being hosted at addons.mozilla.org are made by a third-party author(s). If it was made by Mozilla it would likely have say Mozilla or Mozilla Labs as the By under extension name.

All I know is it's from Mozilla... anything else must be a secret. They seem to want the Forum to answer when they should direct it to the person(s) they know own it.

Thank you. I didn't see that. (call me Captain obvious). I hope they'll get back with a solution.

I appreciate your input.
