I'm trying to use the Alfred Security Camera App which is only available in Android via the app and Firefox via https://beta.my-alfred.com/

When I go to https://beta.my-alfred.com/ from Firefox for iOS it detects and on a mobile device and only loads a message telling me to download the android app and will not load the normal desktop interface. When Googling this issue I noticed that it's a common issue for a people using a number of other websites/services.

It appears there is a fix to do this in Firefox for Android >> http://www.cnet.com/uk/how-to/permanently-request-desktop-sites-on-firefox-for-android/

How can I accomplish this with Firefox iOS?

Request Desktop Site is currently (as of Firefox for iOS 1.2) in development and will ship soon in an update.
