FoxBox allows you to run desktop Firefox on an Android device.

What is FoxBox?

FoxBox is not Firefox itself and is not a Mozilla project, but instead is a compatibility layer that sets up a Linux desktop Firefox build, launches it, renders it and provides a way to interact with it.

How to Use FoxBox?

Use it just like normal. But here are some specifics to the app.
* If you want to bring up a keyboard, enable the ability to pinch zoom and such, tap on the screen to get a set of icons to appear and check them out.
* If you want to do the equivalent to a right click, tap with two fingers.
* If you want to scroll, you can use two fingers swiping.
* If you want to change the scaling or the dns settings, find the service android notification and click the settings. You have to stop and restart the app after changing these settings for them to take effect.

Why Use FoxBox?

Desktop Firefox has a different set of features than the Android mobile app. Also, websites behave different when opened in a desktop browser vs a mobile browser (even when you say you want the desktop version of a website).
