My app does not appear in searches on the marketplace - firefox-os

My app is available on the firefox marketplace at https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/shopping-list/
However if I search for "shopping" or "shopping list" in the marketplace app or on https://marketplace.firefox.com it does not appear anywhere.
What is going on ?

Your app does not appear when searching the Firefox Marketplace from Desktop or Android because we filter search results to show only apps that will work on the device you are searching from, and you did not check the boxes to say that it is available on desktop or android. Like Jason, I easily found your app when searching from my Firefox OS phone.

Gi,
Marketplace reviewer here. Your app is public and has the following requirements:
IndexedDB, Smartphone-Sized Displays (qHD), Vibration.
You should be able to find it, no matter what version you are using.
My guess is that your are using any hyphen to look for it. If you try using "shopping", it will be in the third place:

How to test ChromeOS enterprise features during development?

I am working on a Chrome extension running on Chrome OS.
The extension needs the enterprise.hardwarePlatform permission to be able to get hardware information about the device.
The question is: How can I test my extension?
After installing the extension manually, the API to get the hardware information will not work as it needs the extension to be forced-installed by the enterprise policy.
But how to force-install the extension if it is not published in the Chrome Web Store?
Google Workspace seems to allow to refer only to published extensions in the enterprise policy. But obviously I do not want to publish the extension under development. Also I didn't find a "Web Store for development" where I could upload the extension and then refer to it from the policy.
So how to do this?
I found this question:
https://support.google.com/chrome/a/thread/107510644/how-do-i-develop-a-chrome-extension-with-enterprise-permissions?hl=en-gb
However, did not find the answer in any of the provided links. All information seem to point to publishing on Chrome Web Store first. But then would it be impossible to manually test a feature like this before publishing?
Thank you for your answers in advance.

Google Pay Autofill won't work on chrome mobile

When I use chrome, google pay automatically suggests I pay using one of my saved cards.
This is working for my site on desktop but on mobile it is not.
It asks me to select my card
then to put in my CCV code
it then checks that it is correct
but it does not appear on the form when the google pay box disappears.
Is there a way to fix this or to disable google pay from suggesting using saved credit cards?
The site is live here: https://www.ticketglen.com/events/627169277aa4727312497eaf
I fixed this by upgrading to the latest version of react.
I was using version "^16.9.0" when there was a problem.
There is no problem with version "^18.1.0"

The search option does not show on a mobile device using Housez theme

I decided to use the Housez theme as it advertises as super easy and flexible to use. I am not a web designer but have managed to get my site up and running. www.islandestates.net The problem I have is that there is no search option for the properties on a mobile device? The desktop version works well but how do I get a search box onto the mobile version?
The support from Housez is non existent, I have submitted a request to favetheme but they never reply.
Any help would be aprreciated.

Google Assistant SDK on RBPi 3: "...some basic settings that need your permission first"

I followed all the steps described in Assistant SDK and installed the Assistant on my Raspi 3
I have no problems with recording and playback
Raspi running Python 3.4 in a virtual environment
Assistant Python Library (no gRPC)
Troubleshooting Permission Issues did not help much (I have enabled all my activities)
I have searched a lot for some similar issue but found all related with Google Home App and the enable of activities (I do not have any GH app as the get started example in "Assistant SDK" does not require it)
When I run "google-assistant-demo" or the "hotword.py" script the assistant detects my voice saying "hey Google" but it answers "actually there are some basic settings that need your permission first" to any question.
Is anybody having or had this issue?
Thanks a lot in advance!
After 2 days of trying and trying I found the problem.
Make a click on the option box "Include Chrome browsing history ..." when enabling your "Web & App Activity" ! (see pic below)
If you do not click on it you will receive the message :
"Actually, there are some basic settings that need your permission first. Just go into the Google Home app on your phone for more details"
I hope this is useful for other people too because I did not imagine when I enabled my "Web & App Activity" control that this would be a problem...
The following list of permissions is required to work with Google Assistant API: https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/guides/activity-controls
Ensure the following toggle switches are enabled (blue):
Web & App Activity
In addition, be sure to select the Include Chrome browsing history and activity from websites and apps that use Google services checkbox.
Device Information
Voice & Audio Activity

Developing Spotify apps on Linux

I just can't figure out where Spotify stores the apps on linux. There is nothing (as far as I can see) in ~/.spotify or ~/spotify.
The docs only seems to care about Macos and windows.
Any ideas?
Spotify stores apps from the App Finder in its own encrypted internal cache.
If you want to develop your own apps, once you're flagged as a developer you should be able to create ~/Spotify and put your own apps in it. They won't appear in the sidebar - you need to manually access them by typing spotify:app:<appname> into the search field.
