FoxBox is a compatibility layer that lets you run a Linux-based Firefox Desktop on Android, delivering desktop-style browsing, extensions, and developer tools on mobile. It renders a full desktop Firefox experience and is fully open source with its code hosted on GitHub. It currently ranks #127 in the US TOOLS category, with 1,000+ total and 53 new downloads in the last 30 days.

Pros & Cons

  • Delivers a desktop Firefox experience on Android via a dedicated compatibility layer
  • Supports standard desktop Firefox extensions and DevTools
  • Open source with GitHub-hosted code for transparency and community contributions
  • Built with a broad set of AndroidX libraries and Kotlin for modern tooling
  • Not Firefox itself and not a Mozilla project ( branding and governance differ from Mozilla)
  • Lacks explicit privacy-oriented keywords found in competitors (privacy, private, https) in its feature/marketing language
  • Performance and UX may vary due to running a desktop environment within Android

Comments on FoxBox for Android

★★★★★ max derks · May 24, 2023
I'm using it for MIT App inventor. Thanks to Fox Box I have a desktop mouse and keyboard within Firefox which makes it possible to use all the functionality in App inventor (mouse menu, keyboard) on my Android phone.
★★★★★ Chase Kolozsy · Sep 9, 2024
I am able to use it to ssh into a digital ocean droplet to then ssh into my computer at home from any public Wi-Fi with my phone thanks to this. I can use all the essential keyboard keys for interacting with tmux and auto completing with zsh. It is awesome. I am still learning how to use it. For instance, I haven't figured out how to use my phone's clipboard to copy and paste between different apps yet, but I am sure I will figure that out eventually.
★☆☆☆☆ Jesse Racine · Dec 30, 2023
It's interesting, but the version of Firefox it uses is close to 4 years old. Is there a way to update the version?
★★☆☆☆ S.T. McCrory · Nov 7, 2025
This app seems to have been abandoned by its creators, unfortunately. It is Firefox ESR 78 running on a very, very minimal Debian Buster shell (as of writing, Firefox is version 144). Debian Buster went EOL 3 years ago. I'd be very cautious in using it as-is. That being said, the concept is great - a full desktop Firefox - so if you do need a desktop FireFox version on your phone/tablet and don't mind the version being so old then this might be useful.
