Subj: Firefox not showing in "Open with" dialog box

I pressed the "Clear defaults" button for the Android app Firefox settings page but I am not seeing Firefox show up in the "Open with" dialog box when trying to open a local html file with my File Manager. I see in the list Chrome, Samsung browsers etc... but no Firefox.

What am I missing?

I also couldn't find Firefox in the 'Open with' dialog when I tried to open a .html file in Files app just now although I have Firefox Focus installed on my device. :(

Download size < 0.15 MB. But also accurate enough, ad-free & free.

Found this app that helps file managers open local html files in Firefox or other browsers. Why cant FF implement this natively? Anyway it works great to help FF open local htmls for most file managers.

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.gelin.android.browser.open
