Hello I’m using the Firefox on my IPad and I go to the Firefox add on store. When I try to add an extension it tells me to download Firefox despite already being on it. Because of this I cannot get add on.

There are no Extensions for the Firefox shell browser for iOS devices. Apple has restrictions on what Browser and JavaScript engines can be used.

Extensions are only available for desktop Firefox (for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux) and Firefox for Android.

The https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/ is for desktop Firefox and https://addons.mozilla.org/android/ is for Android Firefox.
