»Offload App« not available with iOS 18.5

»Offload App« is available for all other Apps, not for Firefox.

I am using 2 iPhones SE 2020 and iPad 9.

With older iOS-versions »Offload App« is still working

iPhone SE, iOS 18

So what happens or what do you see when you go to Settings ➜ General ➜ iPhone Storage ➜ Firefox?

Do you see an Offload button or a Re-install button?

If you see a Re-install button, it means it's already been offloaded. Either manually by you, or automatically by the system for lack of storage space and going unused for some time.

Thanks for your replies, however I have tried everything: restarting on all 3 devices, and deleting and re-installing on iPad only (I did not want to go through all the way three times) - no change. I think Firefox version 139.2 has a problem with iOS 18.5. Maybe the problem will disappear with a future update of Firefox or iOS 18 ......

By the way, my wife uses an iPhone 13 (2022) with iOS 18.5 and the situation is exactly the same - and as I pointed out in my original post, with ALL other Apps »Offload App« is working, also with older iOS-versions on iPad Pro 2 (2019), iPhone 7 (2019) and iPhone 6s (2015)
