Firefox on Samsung phone A32 (Android): how to check for updates

Firefox on Windows works extremely well. On my cell phone (Samsung A32) it also works very good but I cannot find anything in the Settings or Help (again on the cell phone) to check for updates?

While browsing a site the site responded by saying my browser (i.e., Firefox) was not up to date.

I immediate went to find a "Check for updates" button in either Settings or Help. I could not find anything.

I assume the cell Firefox is up to date since the latest rev is shown as 122.0 and dated in late January 2024 but there is no button within the cell phone App to verify this.

Could someone suggest how to check on my Android cell phone (Samsung A32) if the Firefox is up to date?

Appreciate any suggestions.

Firefox for Android is installed via Google Play and you need to update Firefox via Google Play, so updating should happen automatically if you start Google Play regularly. You can also check the current state in Android App management and the history in Google Play.

About your Firefox version on Windows 7:

Firefox 116 requires Windows 10 as the minimum and users on Windows 7 and 8 and 8.1 have been moved to Firefox 115 ESR.

Since you are asking about Firefox for Android, I moved this thread from (desktop) Firefox section to Firefox for Android section.
