Hello,

I'm using Firefox in my android smartphone set as default (Chrome app is not installed). In the past when I clicked on a link (from emails, or other apps, etc.), I got a message that said that a new tab was opened in Firefox but the system didn't switch automatically to the Firefox app. I continue clicking on links and then when I was done and I opened Firefox and all the tabs were opened for me. Recently Firefox for android was updated and after the update when I click on a link the system automatically switch to Firefox. How can I set back the system so it doesn't switch to Firefox app each time I click on a link?

Regards.
