If you are referring to Extensions. They are only available for (desktop) Firefox and for Firefox for Android.

(desktop) Firefox for Windows, macOS, Linux https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

Firefox for Android https://addons.mozilla.org/android/

Firefox on iOS is more of a shell due to Apple's restrictions though perhaps at some point you may be able to use iOS system extensions.

Thank you very much! I think you’re saying, I can’t use Extensions on Apple devices.

Hi

You can on Apple laptops and desktops using the desktop version of Firefox, but not for mobile (iPhone and iPad) versions of Firefox.

I did mention that extensions are for Firefox on Windows, Linux and macOS. The macOS is the OS you use on the Mac laptop and desktop.
