This is expected to be the last release in the 8.5 series: on October 22
we will switch to the 9.0 series, based on Firefox 68ESR.
Note 1: Due to some issue with Google Play's new requirement for 64bit
versions [7], we have not yet been able to publish the Android x86 and
x86_64 versions on Google Play. We hope to be able to fix this in the
next days. In the meantime the x86 version can be downloaded from our
website [8].

Note 2: There is an issue with the aarch64 version on Android 9 [9]
causing a crash on every launch. We are working on a fix for this issue.
