I got a big announcement pop-up on Firefox desktop that support for mobile tab groups was added in 153 - https://www.firefox.com/en-CA/firefox/android/153.0/releasenotes/. I'm currently on 153.0.2 (Build #2016175759), and have no tab group feature.

Looking at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups-firefox-android, none of these features are visible for me. Nothing in my tab area mentions groups, the section at the top (private/normal/other devices) doesn't have a "groups" section, and I can't drag tabs onto other tabs to create groups.

My only installed add-on is uBlock Origin. Is there any reason this feature isn't available for me?

Hi all, I recently updated to the most recent version of Firefox on Android but am not seeing any options related to or about using tab groups? My friend who is on the same version, OS, and different model of the same device has the option to create them and a tab for them neither of which I have. His about page matches mine

I've attached a screenshot of the about page below, and my device is a Galaxy S24 FE

Thank you in advance

It used to be really easy. I have Firefox set to open lots of tabs when starting. If I then decide I don't want some of those tabs any more I simply closed those tabs and then went to settings and there was a button to save my Homepage. Then I closed Firefox and next time I started it all my tabs, less those not required, would open. Now that doesn't seem to be possible.

How do I just get rid of the not required tabs? And, in the future, if I want to add more tabs how do I get them to open next time I start Firefox?

Recently the V-like icon/button appeared at the right-hand end of the top line of my Firefox windows. This Tab Search could be invaluable to some, but I have no need for it. If I start to get too many tabs I just use another window. However, I click on it constantly when I intend to minimize the window. I have been clicking on the - icon/button in EVERY WINDOWS APPLICATION since Windows began, and as it has ALWAYS been the LEFT-MOST item in the UPPER RIGHT CORNER I haven't had to think about it in decades. But now it isn't the left-most, that is now tab search.

Please, please, PLEASE provide a configuration option to remove Tab Search from the top line.

Thanks!

Since the last Firefox update, I've noticed an issue whenever I launch the browser. I have it set up so that I have multiple tabs open, and it's set up so that when Firefox starts up, it opens all of the previous tabs and starts me on the tab I was on when I closed the browser previously.

Now whenever I start Firefox, it opens to the last tab I was on, but said tab opens on my current homepage instead of the website that tab was on previously. I experimented by changing my homepage to "Youtube.com", picked a different open tab, closed Firefox and opened it again and sure enough, the tab was now on the Youtube page instead of what it had been previously.

Is this just a bug of the current Firefox version, or is there something in settings I can do to fix this?

Until recently, in Firefox Nightly for Android, when visiting a web page in a Private Browsing tab the three-dot menu included an option to "Open in regular tab". In the past few versions, this option has been removed.

This option is especially handy for those of us who have the "Open links in a private tab" option enabled, which essentially makes Private Browsing the default. For example, if it is a page that normally requires a login, you can use "Open in regular tab" to easily open it in a regular session where you are automatically logged in. If your browser history is synced, "Open in regular tab" makes a page easily available on all devices (e. g. via Suggest) without having to bookmark it or actually send it to a different device.

This post on Bugzilla says "we will continue to keep this a Nightly-only feature" and the menu entry will be renamed to "Move to non-private tab". However, the menu entry does not appear on the redesigned menu.

1. Which exact version removed the option? Is there documentation about this in Bugzilla? 2. Is there a way to re-enable it, e. g. in about:config? 3. If not, are there any plans to bring it back?

Thanks.

Recently Mint upgraded my FF to v147 - possibly relevant, possibly not. There's no post mentioning anyone having this issue on the Mint forum though.

In my Settings, "Open previous windows and tabs" is definitely enabled, but it doesn't happen. I only get my homepage custom URLs.

I went into troubleshooting mode and FF then behaves.

So I figured the issue must be with an extension - but I disabled all my extensions, and it doesn't help. Only going full troubleshooting mode fixes it.

What do I do next please?

There is a numbers left address bar, when I click there is nothing but a word create new tab for searching. I have to swipe left right all over to find the right tab i want. Do not tel me that I can search tab,, it's not ver confinence.. it is stressful

Tab groups work well with the standard tab bar, but when changing to vertical tabs, there is no clear way to expand the menu (aka hit the 'V' at the right of the tab bar for horizontal tabs) to see the tab group.

The only fix i found was to turn off vertical tabs, open the tab group, then turn on vertical tabs again.

Hi,

In my Firefox Developer install the new tab groups feature seems to now be working like one would expect, but my main Firefox install (Firefox desktop 138.0 (64-bit)) has some issues.

I can add tab groups, add tabs to groups, but left mouse clicking the colored tab header does NOT close the tab group, like it does in Developer browser. Mode of tab group clearly changes, as the tab is either dark or light colored after a mouse click.

I don't remember changing any other settings lately in about:config, except setting tabs.groups feature to true, and I don't have too many extensions installed, and I also tried disabling all the extensions, but that didn't help.

I have searched repeatedly and cannot find a way to turn on vertical tabs in Firefox for iOS — iPad specifically. Everything I find seems to refer to Mac.

Thank you.

Hallo everybody who wants to help me, A few days ago, YouTube opened a tab in my browser without being asked. How can I stop this? It started with youtube automatically opening the installed app every day. I then uninstalled the app. Since uninstalling it, youtube opens a tab in my firefox every day, which I don't want. Thanks for your support. Erich

Hello, so I have been waiting for the Tab Groups feature and saw it should be available by the 6th of May, but after waiting, still no Tab Groups, I am not sure what to do or if there is a problem.

When clicking on a search link in firefox for ios, it does not open a new tab, which it used to do. I prefer that, if I need to do more searches from the search query. It is an issue on both iPhone and iPad, but not on pc (Mac or Linux).

Middle-clicking a link used to open the link in a new, background tab. This suddenly stopped over the long, Memorial Day weekend.

I know I can just Shift-middle-click to get this functionality, but if you're (Mozilla) changing the default* functionality, I would assume you provided a way to go back to the old style.

• I may have changed a setting years ago to make middle-clicks open in the background, but if I did, it was so long ago that I don't recall. Regardless, did that option go away after some update?

I noticed this today. I updated both Windows and Firefox and tried again with the same result. This works as I intend (middle-click opens links in new, background tabs in Chrome). So, this isn't a mouse driver or hardware issue.
