@yamsellem: If you're on Mac, in the meantime, you could create a Fluid app, and change the User Agent string into the iPad one and that would also work.
I'm sure there's something similar for Windows and Linux.

Actually, @cheeaun, on a kinda related note: would you think creating an "Install" button on Firefox would be something you'd welcome for the app?
Using window.navigator.mozApps.install('path/to/manifest')
using the manifest you already have for the Marketplace.

@berbaquero you mean showing the button on the app itself? Currently I'm leaning towards Chrome's implementation here: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/03/increasing-engagement-with-app-install-banners-in-chrome-for-android . I haven't seen any updates from Mozilla/Firefox's side for a long time now.

Yeah, I mean showing an 'Install' button somewhere on the app, or in the homepage, similar to:
Reeddit's homepage, on Firefox only, of course.

@berbaquero ah, I see what you mean. As of now, not really thinking of implementing that. Is it working for you on Reeddit, as in users ask for it or using it?
from hackerweb.
@cheeaun actually, in Reeddit's case it was just a PR I accepted 😛
But I really like the idea of explicitly "installing directly from the browser".
Now that you mention it, I should probably put an event tracking on that button and see how it does, heh.
