I'm using Firefox for Android.

On previous phones (Moto) when I was on e.g. Twitter and clicked to upload a photo, one of options was the Google Photos app

Now on a new phone (Samsung) I do not have that option. See attached image.

Is there a way to add the Photos app? Is this a Firefox thing, a permissions thing, a phone OS thing, or what?

Thanks for any help

Hi

I have been on contact with our developers about this and it is not being caused by Firefox for Android. The change that you are seeing is either as a result of the apps on the new device or the differences between one device or the differences between Motorola and Samsung presentations of Android.

I hope that this helps.

I was afraid that might be the case.

Okay, thank you Seburo for checking, now I know it's not Firefox at least.
