I’m using Firefox 156.0 (76745) on iOS 26.7. I cleared all private data, including website data, but when I reopen Firefox, it still shows the previously opened website on the splash screen. I tested this more than three times, and the issue occurs consistently.

Hello. I installed Firefox Focus today new on my IPhone. The used memory for “documents and data” was 5,8 MB. But now after only one website and deleting the entire history, the used memory for “documents and data” according to settings/general/iphone-storage is already 8,5 MB. And I deleted the entire history. How can this be? What does Firefox Focus saves without mu knowledge? Siri is not active and the fast search also not! What also is Firefox Focus doing??? Thank you for help
