Apple won't 'sell' the Firefox supposedly free iOS app to install. They even try to hide it (you have to search for it at their App store). They have the same sign day after day (no sales of it today, yet other apps are available). They say it only works for iOS 11.4 but you say it works for iOS 10.3 Why can't you give it to us? It seems Apple is nasty on purpose -- that is why so many of my friends now have switched to Android phones. Is their any way to get the App directly from Firefox?

Hi Thomas,

The minimum requirement for Firefox for iOS is 11.4 (See here). We need to update the following support article, indeed Install Firefox on your iPad, iPhone or iPod.

Although not recommended, if you feel adventurous, you can try to compile Firefox for iOS yourself using the sourcecode that is available here (there's also a related Reddit thread about it here).
