Add Extension Support for Android version of Edge browser
It's possible, there are browsers like Kiwi that support it. would be great if Microsoft Edge did the same and allowed our extensions used in desktop to be used on Android phones and tablets too. of...

Hi HotCakeX, this is a great suggestion. I will make sure that the team that does our mobile browsers see it. Thanks - Elliot

There is no voting system (yet), best thing you can do now is to send this suggestion using the feedback button on Edge. more people send feedback requesting a feature means higher priority it will have.
- MichaelBodenmuellerDec 28, 2020Copper ContributorWith my work account I regularly use uservoice (for all Microsoft products). Therefor I can't understand why Microsoft offer that possibility for the target groups Developers, Education and Business but not Privat:
https://microsoftedge.uservoice.com/
Sending this suggestion via feedback button within the Application can't be as efficient as using uservoice where your request can't be found by others users to support it.
It is really a shame that we talk about this in the Microsoft techcommunity without interaction with Microsoft officials 😕- HotCakeXDec 28, 2020MVPI reviewed the UserVoice link, there are lots of low quality, unrelated or silly posts there, it definitely needs a Downvote button.
anyway, Edge developers are considering to add a public voting system to Edge community here, you can check it out:

- HotCakeXDec 28, 2020MVPThat works too, but the idea behind sending feedbacks from the browser feedback button is to see how many users ask for a certain feature and then track them and once developers see a certain amount of users want the same thing, or want something to change, then they will do it.
it's not really necessary to see what other people suggest etc. everyone can send their suggestions/feedbacks privately and individually to Edge developers. users receive personal email replies from developers if the developers have a question, or if developers start working on the feedback or the change/suggestion has been applied to Edge.
another advantage of the feedback button is that in case of a problem/bug, the browser sends additional diagnostic data that can help find the source of the problem, the feedback feature in Edge also has problem recreation feature where you can record your screen and steps on how to reproduce a bug and send the data along with your feedback.
the top feedback list you see is made based on the feedbacks developers receive from people.
