My phone's internal memory isn't runnign out yet, but I have an sd card with a much larger capacity, so I tried following the steps below https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1096142

I followed everything to the letter, and nothing worked, firefox still downloads to my phone's internal memory instead of its SD Card; are there any advanced settings I can change to fix this, or am I dead in the water?

version is Nightly 61.0a1

Hi

Due to limitations in Android and a desire to make Firefox for Android even more stable, I am not aware of any reliable way to change the default download location.

Thank you for using the Nightly version - it helps us make Firefox for Android even better.
