Details
I've tried a couple of the android geckoview browsers:
geckoview_example
tv.firefox.gecko
fennec_aurora (from fenix repo)
And all have the about:memory page, and seem to produce interesting info when 'show memory report' is clicked, but unlike on desktop, the 'save memory report' button does nothing.
Most likely this is related to finding a writable directory on android, which implies that perhaps on these platforms this should be 'send memory report' to an email address.

See line 2086 in m-c/toolkit/components/aboutmemory/content/aboutMemory.js:
} catch (ex) {
// This will fail on Android, since there is no Save as file picker there.
// Just save to the defautl downloads dir if it does
this exception is not being thrown/caught

How urgent is this testing feature?
Saving memory files will require the Android SD card permission.

This is not urgent, but would be useful for debugging.
