If I want to installt he nightly version for Android on my phone. Will it be better to uninstall the common version before? Can the present settings, passwords and bookmarks be transfered from the common version to the Nightly. Any useful tips or recommendations, please? Thank you very much for the help provided.

Yes, you can uninstall the Release version if you wish, just remember that you will lose all data in it if you have not transferred it out before you do.

Hi

You can install Firefox for Android Nightly alongside the Release version from the Google Play store - you can install both on your device at the same time. Bookmarks, passwords and settings will be stored in each copy separately, you can link them with Firefox Sync.
