Great, glad to hear it.

Yes, that's my number 1 outstanding feature

Yes, I am also planning to support importing, but there's quite a bit
of work involved.

I don't have any experience of Firefox on Android, and don't know
whether it supports the necessary file APIs.

I had a quick look through the material linked from here:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Extensions/Firefox_on_Android

I've updated TiddlyFox to mark it as compatible with Firefox for
Android. I'd be very surprised if it worked properly, but do give it a
go and let me know how you get on,

Best wishes

Jeremy
