When switching tabs in iOS version (latest Firefox and iOS) the new tab opens and focuses an older tab requiring manual switch to the new tab

When opening a new tab either by a link to another site or entering a url iOS Firefox reverts to another open tab while also opening the new site. This requires manual switching to the new url. Perhaps there is a switch I can change to have it go to the target url. Thanks for any guidance.

Keazen oplossing

Hi Gary,

We changed the default setting for opening screen recently (unless the user has changed their preference previously). Now, by default, users on Firefox for iOS will see last tab whenever they open the app.

That said, you can adjust the setting quite easily by going to Settings -> Homepage -> Opening Screen. You can choose Homepage instead if you don't want to see last tab.

Hope that helps!

Kiki, Your feedback was helpful in that it get me back to the homepage setting which somehow (likely ID10T) got corrupted. All good now. Thanks!
