Hi,

Find attached images of the version no. of the Firefox update I'm attempting to install via apkPure on my Huawei EMUI12 device, and the corresponding security alert.

The alerts concern mismatched security signatures, and advise to install with caution.

Kindly advice.

Hi

That alert is quite possibly correct. I would always recomend that you install Firefox for Android from an official source such as the Google Play store. The copy in that app store that you are using may have been modified.

As you may know, newer Huawei device's do not have GMS support and Mozilla has yet to release the browser in Huawei's AppGallery.

Firefox is my default browser on all my devices, unfortunately if the service were to be hampered by security concerns, as above, one would no doubt be forced to switch browsers?

Food for thought

Hi,

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or developers. If you want to leave feedback for developers, you can go to this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

You can also file a bug report or feature request. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.
