I've tried to use Personas on Firefox Mobile. When I go to the Personas website to pick one, it says that I must install Firefox first. I have already installed Firefox on my phone (Samsung Galaxy 2), but the Personas website is ignoring it.

Hi,

I"m sorry you're having this problem with Firefox mobile. I think you need to install the Personas add-on first.

To install the personas add-on, in Firefox mobile swipe left and tap the gear button at the bottom right. Then, tap the puzzle piece icon at the top to open the add-ons manager. Search for personas and install the personas add-on.

After you have the personas add-on installed you should be able to go to http://getpersonas.com and try on the mobile personas.

Thanks, Michelle

I have Firefox Mobile on my phone. I've had the Personas add-on installed since I got Firefox Mobile. When I try to get Personas, I get the message, "You need Firefox to install add-ons." I have Firefox installed. I have Personas installed. I have no Personas because the Personas website says that I need to install Firefox to get Personas. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, which is on the list of phones compatible with Firefox Mobile.
