Each time I reactivate Firefox on iPad iOs 17.3 a new tab opens. How do I stop that?

Recently the iOs app for Firefox 123.3 began opening a new tab everytime I woke the browser app from sitting in the background. Very annoying. How do I get it to open the last active tab instead of inserting a new tab?

As I reported, I am on iOs, however I did not say I have this problem on my iPad. The software you describe as having a location at the bottom right of the screen does not match what I have. However, I believe you gave me enough information to solve the problem. Thank you.
