It appears that my native android browser does not support add ons like Adblock or Disconnect, so I use Firefox. I have installed Adblock Edge and set Startpage as my homepage, but I'm looking for a privacy add on like Ghostery. I like Ghostery, but it does this thing in Firefox mobile where it opens up an extra tab each time I run the browser. It's kind of annoying. Does anyone have any good recommendations for add-ons or browsers that will block tracking across the web on Android?

Hi,
I tried to install a crx extension (the evernote one, web clipper), but the plugin is not activated. So I don't understand what is the use of the
plugin option in the advanced parameters of the stock web browser.
Any idea ?
Thanks !
You can try Boat browser

And its web page Clipperton addon

I'm using Firefox on desktop & I have an add-on called Dolphin Sync, which syncs bookmarks with the Dolphin Browser for Android. It also allows the immediate sharing of links between the PC & Phone, which is extremely useful. Unfortunately, my NoScript add-on somehow blocks the Dolphin add-on from syncing. There's a constant syncing symbol with nothing else displayed, & nothing happens. When I disable NoScript, it works fine. It displays other devices & immediately receives a sent link, but only if NoScript is disabled. I need both these add-ons working always, & I haven't found out how to solve this. I've looked online but no one else has an answer. Would really appreciate the help.
NOTE: There is probably some URL I need to enter into the whitelist of NoScript, but I'm not sure what. I have tried the obvious ones, the Dolphin Browser website etc. Doesn't solve the problem.
any news or a solution for it?
What is it about bookmarks google doesn’t like?
Google is a multi billion dollar company and has working for it some of the greatest innovative minds currently in the world – and they cant even come up with a decent web browser after years of development….
A Google web browser should be - (in order of importance IMHO)#
(1) Fully working Fast and stable
(2) Be able to sync bookmarks from desktop bookmarks.
(3) Have quick access to these bookmarks
Ok, 2 out of 3 isn’t bad right?, no this is simply ludicrous. As is stands now I can only find one browser that can do this, Dolphin and its crashy as hell with 5.0.
Has anyone found any other browsers?, I ‘ve spent ages looking for something but found no others which give me:
(a) One click or swip access to bookmarks
(b) Desktop bookmark Sync (not import)
