Look, you said to summarize it in one sentence, and now you want more details. ITunes, which sucks by the way, not a fan of android either, said FireFox will not work on IOS 6.1.6. I do now want to upgrade to a new IPod when the one I have now works fine, for the most part. I just wondered if FireFox will ever have an IOS browser that will work with IOS 6.1.6? If not, no problem, I'll just delete the app. Thanks. Why I needed an another account for something else is beyond me. Oh I forgot, tracking by those asses at Google.

all you need to do is uninstall the app that you tried to install it on and reinstall both from there

The Firefox shell browser for iOS devices needs at least iOS 8.2 at minimum. For the private browsing feature you need iOS 9.0 and newer.

Mozilla is making use of modern API's that are only available on newer versions of iOS.
