Purchased a new economy 10" android tablet. PlayStore says Firefox (V81) is "not compatible with this device". All other apps I've tried to install work perfectly. Disaster!!! I've been with FireFox since it was a cub <G>

Maybe an earlier release?

HARDWARE: Mediatek ZH960; Hardware MT6797; CPU ARM7/Rev3/V71; 8gb RAM; 500gb storage.

jscher link to Firefox requirements lead me to FF release 68.11.0 which installed correctly and so far appears to work properly.

Thanks many times.

Do you have Android 5.0 or higher?

Assuming so, I wonder if something is not being detected correctly about the processor. ??
