Firefox OS App Wishlist

This is a program for Mozillians and new contributors to participate in building apps for Firefox OS. As we prepare to launch in new markets, with a new low-priced device -- Firefox OS running on a 128MB platform -- we are seeking apps that will delight users and help round out our Marketplace offering.

For this program we are focusing on apps that are easy to develop by us - the Mozilla community. Therefore they can not be from a specific brand (i.e. whatsapp does not belong on this list), and they have to be possible to develop on the current FxOS platform.

If you'd like to participate, please select one of the 'wishlist' Firefox apps listed below and add your name, or feel free to add suggestions for apps you feel would be useful.

Our Goals

  • Inspire Mozillian app developers and contributors to sign up to work on "Most Wanted" locally relevant apps for the Firefox Marketplace
  • Promote and reward the best of the successfully completed "Most Wanted" apps
  • Create opportunities for developers and translators to participate and prioritize localization of the most important regionally relevant apps

App Content Requests

These are specific app requests from specific upcoming launch markets for Firefox OS. We believe that meeting the content requests and requirements of specific locales with engaging well-designed and easy-to-use apps can help Firefox OS/Marketplace succeed around the world. Start building apps! Submit them to Marketplace. Sign up below to build a specific app. Once your app is published, you will be eligible for a chance to receive a Flame reference device, to help you develop more new apps.:
