URL Caster: Cast Web Pages between Mobile Devices and Mozilla Browser

URL Caster is a web extension tool that allows users to quickly transfer and open web pages or cast URL links between their mobile devices and their Mozilla browser. The add-on generates scannable QR codes that work with the urlCaster mobile app, eliminating the need to copy and paste URL links. Privacy is maintained as only a randomly generated request code is collected during the webpage transfer.
