These may be silly questions, but I cannot seem to find the setting or procedure:
1) How do I change an incognito tab to non-incognito in FF? Is that possible without having to copy and paste the url to a new browser tab? 2) Is it possible to export browser tabs from FF Focus to non-incognito tabs in FF? All I see are “Open in Chrome” and “Open in Firefox”. The FF option always opens in an incognito tab.
Just trying to find a a quick and easy way to go from an open tab in FF Focus to an open, non-incognito/regular tab in FF app where I save my tabs for future work etc. (all of this in iOS 18, iPhone)
Thank you for your time and assistance!

When I opened my iPad all tabs saved in private browsing had disappeared. I keep them there not because they are particularly private but for ease of access. A note from Google said that it had changed my settings as they didn’t know if I was over 18. (I’m 75!) and I needed to sign in to Google. I always use Duck Duck Go as my search engine on my desktop and do NOT want to use Google if possible. Can you help. I’m really fed up/ angry about this intrusion. Sorry for explanatory ramble. Thanks Nicola Palmer Nicolapa@blueyonder.co.uk

I’m having a problem very similar to the one described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1421173 from last year. Ever since the version 127.0 update from last week, all my private tabs are GONE. My regular tabs, including inactive tabs, are fine but more than 40 private tabs were lost (and I’m pissed because the nature of what those tabs were makes them very difficult to go re-find). Now, anything I open as a private tab vanishes if I leave the app for more than just a moment, even if I left it open to that tab. It makes the private browsing function effectively unusable for anything I’m not gonna just sit down and do in one sitting.
I don’t expect my 40+ lost tabs recovered, it’s a pain but it’ll be fine, but the function issue is NOT fine and needs to be fixed!
After the most recent update, private browsing no longer restores tabs after an app re-launch. Is there any way to restore the lost tabs?

I'm on Firefox 127.0 (42448) ios and all my private tabs were closed on update and now whenever I make a private tab it disappears after the app is closed or refreshes. It's kind of behaving like the setting where private tabs are closed automatically but when I looked in the privacy settings of firefox ios it's not there anymore. Does anyone else have this issue? I know theres an existing problem with tabs for firefox but I don't think this is exactly the same because my normal tabs are totally fine.

Was the option to close privacy tabs removed recently? I would like to be able to save my tabs without losing them again. I only ask because I just like to organize my tabs instead of having all the tabs in one section.

I usuallg keep a few tabs open in private browsing but now it seems they’re closing automatically when I come back from regular browsing. The settings/privacy/close private tabs doesn’t seem to exist in the setttings any longer. Did it move? Am I missing something? Reopening private tabs again and again sort of may push me out of Firefox on iOS altogether.
Private kept always open, even when closing Firefox, and restarting the iPhone. Now the private tabs get closed when closing Firefox. Where can I stop it?

I’ve updated to IOS Firefox version 127.0 I lost a good chunk of tabs in the private browsing section after this update removed the ability to leave private browsing tabs open after exiting the app. Scrolling down to the privacy section of the settings for my application showed me that the button/prompt for that setting was removed outright. If this was an intentional decision, it should have been noted in the update/change logs in preview of the IOS app store. I don’t agree personally with this change, but it happened regardless.

In response to another of my now archived posts, Mozilla emailed me suggesting I update my version, which I had mentioned that I had done. So, to be clear to Firefox/Mozilla: my phone is completely up to date (iPhone 14 max pro), my Firefox app is completely up to date, all settings are properly set to default to and stay in private browsing mode.
In spite of this, after closing Firefox for a few hours or more, when opened, it reverts to NON private browser, thereby allowing more data collection…which is exactly what private mode is designed to limit.
I have posted this multiple times, and I think in different areas. I have replied to Firefox/Mozilla's email and forum responses that this continues to be an issue in spite of their commentary that they are “working on it.” This has been happening for over a year and does not happen on other browsers; and in spite of me having already done everything they have suggested to resolve this.
Others appear to have this issue. While I have changed to a competing browser, I still prefer Firefox and check back frequently, but there is no movement and there only seems to be limited lip-service from Firefox/mozilla.
