Firefox for Android TV

This is an unreliable fork of Mozilla’s Firefox for Amazon’s Fire TV with modifications for Android TV devices

Changes from main project

  • Long press on back button will open the overlay (more convenient if you don't have a menu button)
  • Remove Amazon devices specific permissions
  • Changed applicationId to be able to install it next to Mozilla's apk.

Features that would be nice to implement

  • Voice search
  • Provide APKs

What to expect from this fork

  • Don't rely on this. I will try to keep it updated as long as it suits my needs. I use it on my Nvidia Shield TV, so I will fix whatever breaks for me.
  • You are welcome to create new issues for Android TV specific stuff. However, you should report bugs to upstream project whenever possible.
  • You are welcome to fix issues. I might try to fix some of them too but there is no guarantee.
  • You are welcome to fork this and make changes.
  • In the end, it would be nicer if Mozilla was in charge of this so don't hesitate to +1 this issue : Provide APK download links (on our Github releases page, FTP)
