Iirc, it only comes up if you search for firefox. They could have changed it.

Confirmed. They definitely paid to advertise under "Firefox" searches.

Out of interest, does anything similar come up for chrome? The common enemy of both.

I got the same result, searching for Firefox on Play store

Yup, third confirmation that this shows up as a "limited time event" which I suspect is an ad in playstore if you search for firefox.

It appeared for me as well. As the second result, under "Limited-time events", first result was Firefox. What followed below in the "More results" were the rest of the Firefox variants.

This is after searching Firefox on the Apple App Store, same as searching for brave.

I think its just on the play store.
