I am working on an extension/add-on Firefox for android. Our extension wants to communicate with a native app and fetch data from there. I tried nativeMessaging but it is not supported by Firefox. . While researching, I came across articles discussing Firefox's 120 build, which is expected to provide enhanced support for add-ons. However, I couldn't find any information regarding native app communication in these resources. I'm seeking assistance or guidance from someone who may have insights into this matter.

Hi

I recommend that you ask about this in the Add-ons developer community forum at:
