On iOS the page promotes the App Store version of Firefox, which is based on WebKit and doesn’t support Web Serial.

  Blame Apple for that.

    Not a full time apple user but how does third party orion browser supports Firefox addons on apple but Firefox itself doesn't support their own addons?

      Orion had re-implemented support for the browser extensions APIs in WebKit. Though WebKit more recently opened up its built-in addons support to third-party browsers that use it.

        My question is, why doesnt firefox support them
        • dotproto 4mo ago
          Do you mean Firefox on iOS? If so, that would require the firefox-ios project to adopt BrowserEngineKit, which is relatively new. Firefox for iOS WebExtension support is being tracked in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1497374 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1497374
