I’ve just been looking for a replacement for Firefox Beta.

    Here’s what I did:

    • created a new collection and added few addons
    • copied the collection id from the URL
    • opened Firefox nightly and enabled custom collection menu
    • input the collection id
    • Firefox quits
    • when I open Firefox and click on Add-ons, there were no add-ons and there was an error that “Failed to query Add-ons”

    edit: added both collection id and the collection name as it appears on the URL. it is working now. Thank you for your help! :)

      I’m getting this same error. Added the collection ID and the name where?

          It wasn’t at ALL clear to me that this entire process takes place in two DIFFERENT Firefoxes: one on a desktop or laptop install and THEN on your android device!! Maybe I read thru the instructions too fast (real men don’t read instructions 😉 ) but they all seem to say “…open Firefox…” without being clear WHICH Firefox they’re referring to.

          I’ve now spent close to 3 hours trying to get 3 extensions to work/load properly into Fennec on the Android… Back to Kiwi! “It just works…” 😡
