When i leave tabs open in firefox focus for android. I have the option to erase cache. I like that option Sometimes the browser makes that dissicion for me. Killing my tabs. I dont like that. Nowhere in the settings can i find info about automatic erase options. It there is no solution for this i will stop using firefox. I am the boss of my browser. And a browser killing my tabs when i look away is not acceptable.

Extra:trying to log in to write this post i had to enter my email address to login. The javascript on that field went grazy and i had to retype my email address 8 times because the script kept on changing the order of letters and changing position of cursor (while typing!)

Hi

Firefox Focus is designed for quick browsing where the data is not desigend to be retain. You may be better off useing the new Firefo Preview browser that comes with comparable private browsing tools.

With regards to using this site, what browser are you using to log into it with?

Or else, you can use hte original version firefox, with some add-ons from reputed providers, for blocking trackers, pages with no HTTPS support.
