I have downloaded and paid for Flashfox Pro, but I have NOW found out that it's too out of date to acquire any add-ons or just about anything from Fireflox. When will this change? Do not want to request refund and go back to my old browser.

Look at the author as it is not by Mozilla so how can they do any updates to FlashFox.

These are the apps made by Mozilla. https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=7083182635971239206

If it is not made by Mozilla, why do they take me there and allow their add-ons?

The author of the FlashFox app used Mozilla Firefox a starting point for their app. Thus their app can use Firefox addons and some of the questions may be the same. I doubt the author FlashFox has the technical expertise to maintain the current state of Flash on Android.

Firefox for Android has not supported Adobe Flash for several releases. Before then it sort of worked but was buggy. I would not recommend using Flash on Android as Adobe has not provided security updates for it since 2013,
