I had already downloaded and installed Ironfox (FF Android fork) on my phone and have been using it for a week or so. It works identically to FF for android. Ublock Origin is working in Ironfox too.

The DDG app shows no 3rd party tracking attempts made by Firefox at all... So far...

Do they share location data without asking though? Google has an incentive to exaggerate.
