Hi Bazzar1, you can install Firefox from the Play app. For reference, this is what it looks like:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox

Once you have Firefox installed, it won't immediately replace your default browser. Depending on your version of Android, the way you change default apps varies a bit, but the general idea is that you go into Android settings, Apps, and either go to the specific App and remove defaults, or go to a list of default apps and remove default status from the current default there.

Finally, Firefox for Android is set up to show search results from Google by default. You can change your default site for search results in Settings: Manage my default search engines in Firefox for Android.

Does that get you where you want to go?
