Google is redirecting search from Firefox to their own browser

Hi, I noticed recently that on my mobile phone whenever i try to search for anything via Firefox browser... as soon as i hit enter... google redirects the search to their own android browser which i hate honestly. I've been using Firefox for ever and its the only browser I use.

I'm letting you guys know what Google (on android) is doing. Stealing traffic away from Firefox.

Hello, thanks for reaching out. I believe what you should do is set Firefox as your default browser for your Android device. You can see how to do so here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-default-browser-android Let us know if this worked.
