Microsoft was testing extension support for Microsoft Edge for Android as early as early 2024. In the early testing phase, users needed to manually enable the Android extension experimental option before they could access the extension page. After more than a year of testing, the extension function for the Android version has been officially launched. Now the Microsoft Edge stable version can also install extensions. The first batch of supported extensions includes many well-known extensions such as Violent Monkey.
It should be reminded that although the current stable version of Microsoft Edge already supports the installation of extensions, the extension store page is still marked as a Beta version, which means Microsoft may need more time to improve it.
Of course, this situation is not surprising. Most extensions are developed for desktop platforms and therefore have display problems on mobile devices. These extensions supported by Microsoft are usually optimized for mobile devices to facilitate normal use by users.
Therefore, users may still encounter potential problems in actual use. These are normal situations. If you encounter problems, you can actively contact the extension developer or Microsoft to submit feedback information.
Here are the steps to install the extension on Microsoft Edge for Android:
1. Upgrade MicrosoftEdge to v134.0.3124.57 and subsequent versions
2. Start the Microsoft Edge browser and click the menu button in the lower right corner and click Extensions
3. The extension page will be launched, where you can install the extension you want
4. If you need to disable the extension, please go to the menu button in the lower right corner, Extensions, Manage Extensions, Menu, and uncheck the Enable button
Popular extensions currently supported include Tampermonkey, DarkReader, Bitwarden Password Manager, ImmeriveTranslate, Cookie-Editor, User-AgentSwitcher, etc.
