Mozilla only makes mobile Firefox for Android 2.2+.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms#Other_Platforms iPhone/iPad/iPod

  We have no plans to release the full Firefox browser for iOS. The iOS SDK agreement requires apps to use Apple's own JavaScript engine (or none at all, like Opera Mini which downloads pre-rendered pages from Opera's servers and cannot run JavaScript code in the client). Because of this, we have no supported way to distribute Firefox's rendering and JavaScript engine to iPhone users.
