Hi,

I'm really missing a feature that was once there and I'm wondering why it was removed.

When you click on the adress bar on a tab to go to another website, your most visited websites used to appear on screen. Now there is just a transparent, grey area above your keyboard (see attached picture).

I don't mean the start screen when you open a new tab (there you can see the most visited websites). I'm talking about an existing tab with any website on screen.

Am I missing something, or is this really gone? I don't wanna open a new tab for every website change, but rather use an existing tab.

Thanks!

Hi

In the Search settings in the Firefox for Android menu, do you have Search browsing history selected as an option?

Yes, that option was already selected. So in theory it should be there, but doesn't show for me?

No further suggestions?

Would be at least good to know if this a problem with my device/ff or whether this is a design choice.

I tried it on mine (version 84.1.2) and it does come up. I type one letter, then a whole list comes up but I have to scroll down a little to see the suggestions based upon my history.
