I am trying to move all the synced tabs brought in from android chrome and Firefox pc into the current active tabs I have on Firefox android.

I've only been able to get 1 at a time to move over, but I have well over a hundred open in putting the two other browsers together..

Everything I've been able to look up about it only deals either the syncing part.


And, is there a way to have am active sync? As in, I open a tab in Firefox on laptop, it opens that tab on my Firefox mobile? And vice versa.

Kinda just throwing this out here. I have over 5 thousands tabs open on mobile. If I had to wager a guess I'd say I have at least 10,000 if not 20,000. I did actually count to the 5,000 for certain. My main question is I just wanna know if there is a way to definitively know how many I have. I know on the desktop version you can and I have done so, but that wont tell you how many are open on mobile. When ever I try to share all tabs my firefox immediately crashes, all the tabs will reopen afterwards. I just really wanna know how many tabs I have so I write down the number and get to closing them. Thank you for reading.

Please, many people find an oying the fact that Some installed WebApps still have a Top bar on then with the adress site (which is unneded and ruins the purpose of installing a WebApp. Here I will upload 2 pictures, one on youtube and one on reddit. Both with the annoying top bar. Just let us disable it!

I already use Firefox for Desktop and I'm currently moving from Chrome to Firefox on Android, one feature that I miss is the possibility of splitting the screen with two instances of browser each side.

Firefox allow splitting but you can only open a different app on the other side. I'd like to open Firefox on both sides and move tabs from one side to another.

I've attached one image to show how it look like on Chrome.

I tried to search for a solution, but the keywords are too common... Some time ago, I used to access the list of tabs and it would show me the END of the open tab list. Recently, It happens just rarely - most of the time, FF shows the beginning of the list (first, second... tab), and I have to scroll trough all of the open tabs to get to the last one. This is extremely frustrating. Is there any setting that can force FF to open the en of the open tab list?

I'm not sure if this behavior is intended or not.. but it seems unusual and like some sort of glitch.

Firefox re-opens tabs after the browser is closed. Say I hypothetically open the app to make a Google search, open a few tabs from the results, do some research, then close the most recent 4 tabs and then immediately close the entire app.

Upon my next opening of the app, I'm served the New Tab screen. Tapping the square icon that brings up my list of currently open tabs, reveals that those 4 tabs from my previous session have returned. This has persisted through the last few updates, and I've just been living with it for a month or two. If I close a bunch of tabs at once and then keep browsing, sometimes I'm able to keep some of them dead, but some will come back I think. It's inconsistent and strange.

Any help is appreciated.

The browser for android is excellent in a lot of ways, but I find it really irritating when I open the app and see tabs I already closed in my previous sessions open in the new session. You end up having to close the same tab multiple times because each time you leave the app and return, the tabs are automatically reopened. Sometimes as many as 2 or 3 previously closed tabs are reopened automatically whenever the app is opened next. I just find this quirk highly annoying and I wonder if there's a fix for this

Hi,

All of a sudden I started getting a strange download indication which didn't show up when I looked for it. Since then, when I press "+ New Tabs," a new tab doesn't open. A new tab opens only when I've clicked on a new link for a topic.

I cleared the cache, restarted my phone twice and un-and re-installed Firefox twice. I was originally synced with Firefox on my other phones, but I don't want to sign in again with that email until this problem is fixed. I haven't opened Firefox again on my previous phones since this all started. I'm going to cry if those versions are "infected" with this problem as well. I just can't erase all the data I've previously accumulated within Firefox on those devices, either.

Now I've looked in Firefox Support for this problem and I've looked again and again for a way to restart in Safe Mode, but I can't find it. Could someone please help me diagnose and fix this issue?

Why doses back gesture doesn't delete the current tab. Whenever I go back to homepage it creates new tab and by the time I knew there are multiple tab that I need to close now. Back gesture should delete the current tab when we wanted to go to homepage. Chrome has this feature and Firefox should have this too. I just switched from that's why I am asking. Please guide me.
