Can you install both FF regular and FF Beta Android apps alongside each other on the same device or will one overwrite the other?

I already have the mobile FF browser on my Android device and would like to try the FF Beta browser. Can I install the latter without overwriting the former? In other words, can I have both apps side by side on my device and use each when I choose?

Many thanks.

Hi

Yes, you can have both apps installed on your device. I have done it myself (using Aurora and Nightly versions) and it works fine. Each app will have its own settings and browser histories.
