Question Mobile skin no longer available on FF Android?

Parallax · 04-19-2014, 05:02 PM

I doubt this is a forum side issue, but as of 2 days ago I cannot get the mobile skin on Firefox for Android. I get the mobile skin on Chrome, and the native browser, but not Firefox. I tried clearing the cache, clearing the cache and all data, and clearing the cache, all data, uninstalling the reinstalling. No joy. Any insight here is appreciated.

Is that for a tablet or a smartphone? Or a phablet? I guess our system may have gotten confused if it's the latter

Tablet. Samung Galaxy Note.

The skin should be back, though I'm not sure if it's a better fit for tablets than the dekstop skin.

Yep, it's back. Thanks, Adam. For a lot of things, the mobile skin is better than the regular skin on my 8" tablet.
