Hi

Apologies for the delay in responding, but I wanted to check something with the Firefox Focus for Android development team before responding.

Firefox Focus for Android is promoted as an application that does not gather unnecessary information. The permissions presented at installation (or when you perform an action), that you mention are to allow you to save pictures and other files to your device.

I hope this helps clarify matters.
