Thank you for the explanations, and for looking to make a new report
against snapd if the problem persists.

I believe by default snapd won't auto-update any running snaps, for a
period of 15 days.  If 15 days have passed but at the time of the auto-
update check the snap is still running, snapd will go ahead and update
it anyway.

So it would be interesting to check two things:

- How long has passed since an update has become available but the snap
wasn't updated?  Is it more than 15 days?  If yes, that may be a snapd
bug.

- If it's been less than 15 days and you have had the system up and
running continuously for multiple hours (so that at least one snapd
update check would have occurred), and you've seemingly closed the
Firefox snap but it still wasn't updated, it might be that the Firefox
snap left behind lingering processes even after being quit, which could
trip up snapd and cause it to not auto-update the Firefox snap.  You
could check for firefox processes using either GNOME's System Monitor or
similar, or from a terminal by running something like "ps aux | grep
firefox".

Hope this helps.

  Firefox won't auto update on Ubuntu 24.04

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The problem has occurred to me in three new installations. Manual
  updates via App Center and terminal works normally.

  
  I think apparmor prevents auto updates.

  Snapd will also see that an update is available.
