Does this script support mobile ver of Google?

Hi there, I suspect there are important layout differences that would break the script, but I have not tested it. I am not sure how I would test it?

See https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2020/09/29/expanded-extension-support-in-firefox-for-android-nightly/. You can install Tampermonkey on Firefox Nightly for Android.

For debugging, maybe you can use "Remote debugging via USB" of Firefox?

I tried installing your script, and it works normally on desktop ver of Google, but not the mobile ver. I can't find "Manage Hiding" and "block".

I also noticed that it works perfectly on Bing, both mobile ver and desktop ver.

(Sorry for my poor English)

Firefox has a built in emulator for mobile browsing. It's somewhere under dev tools.

The script does work after a fashion on Android mobile. I've used it on both Yandex Browser and Kiwi Browser. However the positioning of the popup obscures half of the buttons.

The situation is slightly better in landscape mode; the buttons are just about usable. But it looks like there's some absolute positioning going on, that is pushing the popup off the screen, on mobile.

[Love this script, by the way. Can you make a version for Hacker News!]

I'm not very adventurous with mobile browsing; a desktop person myself.

I assume your browsers are requesting a desktop layout?

You are correct about the positioning: the script places the panel just to the right of block button, which of course varies from one result title to the next, but on the desktop layout, there has always been space due to the wasted space on the right side.

I might need to have alternate styling for a narrower device screen, if that's easy to detect.

Until then, can you use the option at the bottom of the Options panel: "Edit Custom Style Rules"?

If so, you can override the positioning back toward the left with this:

#ghhtemp { left: 10px !important; }
