Bypass Paywall Clean

I can't be the only one using this.

Recently install/ updating has become impossible on a mobile, but still works just fine on desktop/ chrome

For those who has never heard of this, it normally works perfectly to enable one to "test" news sites behind paywalls

    I am in a similar boat. Recently began using Kiwi browser on mobile which seems to have less trouble running the BPC extension

  • CatmanAU on 31/08/2024 - 08:39

    OK, so not just me.

    It's only very recently it has happened, been using Kiwi for quite a while, 1-2 years.

    Hopefully it will get sorted soon.

      This is the new one. The author moved to Github after being blocked on the previous hoster.

  • nfr on 31/08/2024 - 11:20

    Works fine for me with Firefox on Android.

    One of my favourite extensions.

  • CatmanAU on 31/08/2024 - 12:39

    Issue not with FF.

    What phone are you using?

    You can sideload the xpi file onto Firefox for Android

    Settings -> About -> Tap on the Firefox Logo 5 Times -> Exit to main settings menu.

    There should now be "Install extension from file" option in the Advanced section of the settings menu.

  • CatmanAU on 31/08/2024 - 13:50

    Again issue is not with FF.

    2 different Android phones, same deal, KiWi browser.

  • CatmanAU on 31/08/2024 - 15:59

    OK, think I got it worked out.

    Must be something with the compression of the ZIP file.

    Just tried and unpack the ZIP file, then rezipped it without compression then loaded it on phone, and behold it installs as it used to do.

    EDIT: Yep, just did same on the other phone, all good now.
    So the original zipping of file (profanity) it up. Why it worked fine on desktop since it's installed unzipped there :)

  • CatmanAU on 31/08/2024 - 18:40

    It was just updated another point, same deal, unpack/ repack/ install/ all good.

  • BewareOfThe Dog on 31/08/2024 - 20:42

    I've always had issues on Mobile.

  • burningrage on 31/08/2024 - 23:37

    Mine still working on Android Mozilla Firefox Nightly. However, I noticed everytime the extension updates, it messes up certain publications (eg: Herald Sun) so I had to go into the tickboxes and reticked the Newscorp indicator and it would work again.
