Works in Firefox, not Chrome. Android.

1. Bookmark any page, making a dummy

2. Menu > Bookmarks > edit

3. Change URL of dummy bookmark to the js bookmarklet code.

4. Visit any site.

5. Menu > Bookmarks > tap on the bookmarklet

6. Widget appears on bottom right of page

It doesn't work on HN(?) But does work on other sites.




Step 5 onwards don't work on private tabs for some reason. For private tabs you can do all steps up to 4 and then:

5. Tap on the URL bar

6. Type part of the name of the bookmark you chose until it appears in search (in my case eruda works)

7. Tap the bookmarlet

For this to work you need to have bookmark search enabled in settings: Settings -> Search -> Search bookmarks

Also, there seem to be many sites where the widget doesn't appear, but you can try it at google.com.


If you're on Android and want eruda, I've got a userscript to load it on every site here: https://github.com/Efreak/UserScripts/tree/master/Eruda-Mobi...

It helps with things like removing elements because you can see the DOM and it's fewer clicks away and easier to use than ublock, which doesn't show the DOM in the little box provided for element removal and only allows removing one item say a time (you can use multiple selectors, but every time you tap an element to get the selector it overwrites the existing content)


Unless I'm mistaken, Chrome mobile doesn't support userscripts (or extensions). Which browser are you using?
