When I am finished with a tab and close it, and then close down Firefox app, when I click back into Firefox the tabs that I have closed are still there open. How can I stop this from happening without having to "quit" and clear cache etc all the time? Surely when you close a tab it should stay closed?

Hi Firefox Support, I'm using Firefox Android on a Google Pixel 3xl. Clicking on hyperlink on website and choose from pop-up menu Open in New Tab. Switch to new tab and blank page sits there with only the URL in the address bar. Page doesn't load. If you switch to another open tab then switch back to new tab after a minute or so the page will load. Very frustrating. Using a Google Pixel 3xl

Firefox build info: 110.1.0 (Build #2015936099), d39fc7498c+ GV: 110.0.1-20230227191043 AS: 96.2.1 2023-02-28T12:26:13.679557

Downloaded Firefox update for Android phone and it closed all my tabs, going to history only shows tabs I have opened since I started trying to solve the problem. I have tried signing in and out, uninstalling and reinstalling the app, syncing to laptop and pulling up history there, no luck. I have tried restoring previous session but it does not give me the option. Please help me get my tabs back!

I had a little over 100 tabs open on Firefox, and they disappeared when I opened the app. I did not close them, I have auto-close set to never and inactive tabs turned off. They're not in my recently closed section, although the tabs I did close during my last session were there. The individual websites are still in my history.

This has been randomly happening for almost a year now, but this is the second time this month. My tabs keep disappearing with no warning and no apparent way to get them back, and it's always when I'm over 100 tabs. The weird thing is I've been over 400 tabs before with no issues, so idk why barely over 100 now is an issue. Why does this keep happening? Is there a way to get my tabs back?

Is there any way to extend the visibility of the pop-up switch notification which reads "New tab opened Switch"? I mean another half second or two?

I'm talking about the momentary button on the bottom of the screen which provides a way to immediately switch over to the newly opened tab.

I usually don't switch, but I'm usually too slow to click when I DO want to switch.
