When I try to install the LAstpass Extension for “FF on iOS” or Swisscows. I get to the exyensions page but it wants me to download Firefox. WHich is already installed on the iPad. So whats going on with your extensions and Firefox for iOS?

Hi

Add-ons for the desktop and Android version of Firefox are unavailable for Firefox for iOS.

Apple has created a proprietary iOS extension system which is incompatible with Firefox add-ons and extensions for Android, Mac, Windows and Linux. Also, iOS extensions written for other iOS apps won't work on Firefox for iOS (for example extensions written for Safari won't automatically work on Firefox for iOS).
