No, the F5 probably can't make your Android app pin.

 

You can use HPKP to pin certificates in browsers, but it is unlikely that mobile apps will honour these settings, since it requires client side state to be preserved between visits.

 

There should be no MITM with TLS unless the user or the device has added a trusted CA. But if you want to pin and many mobile apps do, you'll what to change the app.
