I have been using Firefox on Android for years and I love it. Now as the Firefox going to to replaced with a better built Firefox, one thing is bothering me the most.

When I exit Firefox Nightly by swiping it away from the Android Recent Apps Screen, the opened tabs don't close. They stay there until I close them or press the Quit Button (I don't like this).

How can this be fixed? I like how it is on the normal Firefox.

Hi

I think we have changed that browsing behaviour to help people to pick up from where they have left off when browsing on the go. You can set open tabs to close as you have found in the settings.

It should close current session when swiping from Recent Apps Screen WITHOUT pressing the Quit button.

I don't like the Quit button to close session option at all. It is totally a privacy issue as we all are not used to using the Quit button so many years.
