<h3>Android</h3>

<div class="alert alert-warning" role="alert">
|

Unfortunately the Android version of Firefox <a href="https://github.com/stoically/temporary-containers/issues/465">doesn't yet have Temporary Container support</a>. The recommended extensions below are a substitute, however as APIs do not exist for clearing <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexed_Database_API">IndexedDB</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_web_application#Service_workers">Service Workers</a> cache, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_web_application#AppCache_(obsolete)">appCache</a>, or cache by host. As a result they are not as good as the above Temporary Container suggestions.
