Mozilla Firefox

What DeviceOK can test in Mozilla Firefox

Firefox supports the core browser media and input workflows used by DeviceOK, but some advanced Chromium-origin hardware APIs are not available.

Recommended checks

Start with browser-visible evidence

Strong use cases
  • Camera and microphone tests
  • Keyboard, mouse, display and ordinary Web Audio tests
  • Comparing whether a problem reproduces outside a Chromium browser
Important limitations
  • WebHID, WebUSB, Web Serial and some other advanced hardware integrations are not generally available in Firefox
  • Saved site permissions can block a new prompt until changed or removed
  • OS-level app/browser permissions can still prevent camera or mic use
Permissions

If camera or microphone access is blocked

  1. 1

    Open Firefox Settings → Privacy & Security → Permissions.

  2. 2

    Review Camera and Microphone saved permissions for the site.

  3. 3

    Remove a stale Block/Allow decision when you want Firefox to prompt again.
