Title: Want to use your desktop extensions on android? Use kiwi browser Post by: libert19 on September 20, 2021, 04:35:30 AM Heads up in case someone didn't know.
I use metamask, rabby, liquality - they work as good as desktop. Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiwibrowser.browser Title: Re: Want to use your desktop extensions on android?

So yes many extensions work. However, many sites, crypto related and others have issues, because the think they are running on a full desktop browser and not a 6" screen. Or they are looking for things that are not there. I do knot know if they made any other changes since I last tried it. No performance issues that I felt. -Dave Title: Re: Want to use your desktop extensions on android?

Are there any performance problem for specific extension? Does all feature (e.g. backup to/restore from file) works? Metamask file import doesn't work, private key/mnemonic import work fine.

I didn't know the existence of such feature on android, surely I will use it and if possible I will share my experience here.I use metamask, rabby, liquality - they work as good as desktop.

I haven't tried and personally don't see the need of using other extensions on mobile. Title: Re: Want to use your desktop extensions on android? Use kiwi browser Post by: Ucy on September 22, 2021, 05:43:58 PM Really interesting. Will be more pleased if it can help avoid downloading too many Android apps that can be downloaded as extentions and also have those that aren't available atall on Android. And I guess it will be more secure to use Android apps that are available on the Chrome Store.. . I avoided lots of Android Apps because of the kind of information they demand. Wonder if one can still receive notifications when the browser is closed, that will help alot too.

I have to use Laptop to use different extensions. From now on everything can be done by phone. I haven't tried yet but will do so soon.

Use kiwi browser Post by: boyptc on September 23, 2021, 09:20:46 PM I've used this browser before but I'm not used to it and I find it a bit delay whenever I navigate the game that I've been playing before on a browser.
