Klar and Focus are indeed the same thing, something about a trademark dispute in Germany over the name Focus. Whoever wrote the article seems to have been slightly confused about this.
I think Firefox for Android didn't get mentioned just because most of the desktop improvements apply equally to the Android version and they don't have much mobile-specific stuff planned. Meanwhile Focus/Klar is an entirely different codebase that is getting some new features.

"Firefox Klar is a version of Firefox Focus for Germany, Austria and Switzerland with user activity tracking disabled by default." - https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.klar/ https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.klar/

- NoGravitas 9y agoFirefox for Android has been using Quantum for some time. It's just that they haven't switched Focus over to using it (it currently uses an Android WebView).
