Hi, Just installed two apps on Firefox v 30 for Android and would like to delete them. Pressing Menu -> Tools -> Apps shows currently installed apps. Tried to long-press an icon of an app but it only selects it and there is no option to delete it.

Would appreciate if the uninstall process was a bit more intuitive. ;)

Cheers.

Answering my question.

Although Firefox apps are installed using the browser interface, removing the app is similar to uninstalling an Android app. One should go to installed apps and long-press the icon of unneeded app until seeing a red cross on the top of the screen. Dropping the thing on the red saltire and confirming deletion will finish the process.
