To whom this may concern,

Hi! I am having issues with loosing tabs in private browsing mode. In the past I could have dozens of tabs open in private browsing mode for months at a time, but it seems like after the new update as soon as I leave Firefox all of my open private browsing mode my tabs disappear.

Is this an intentional new feature? Is there a way to turn it off? I would like to keep my private browsing mode tabs open after I leave the Firefox browsing app (I am not exiting or deleting any tabs or the app when I leave).

Thanks!

The behavior of Firefox on my iPad when long-pressing a link and selecting the “Open link in new tab” option is counter to how it should operate. It opens the link in a new background tab. It should open the link in a new tab and bring that tab to the foreground, like it does in the desktop app.

Sometimes the lock icon in the url bar shows that a connection is insecure (slash through lock) when the connection is secure and using https. I haven’t been able to detect a pattern, but it’s happened enough times that it has become noticeable. I’m curious if there’s a reason behind this, or perhaps I’m misunderstanding how to interpret the lock icon? I’ve attached a screen shot of an example from the VSCode extension marketplace web site where there seems to be a disconnect.

many websites don’t have logos appear when a Firefox ios favourite is pinned. they also don’t automatically name properly so pinned favourites are difficult to use.

note— i am currently have more than 2 rows of pinned favourites but many are useless (unidentifiable) unless i can rename them. Ability to rename is not available with 3 or 4 lines of favourites pinned

without pinned favourites readily identified, this browser is unsuitable and i have to revert to using other browsers

Whenever a text box is focused in a web page on Firefox on iPad a bar shows across the bottom of the screen with three buttons: ^ v Done. This is even worse when I have a physical keyboard connected as it is double height. What is this bar and how do I get rid of it? Thanks

Recently (2 updates?) whenever I return to the normal browsing page from private browsing; weather 5 minuets or 5 days, then return to private browsing all the tabs I left open (active) are gone.

I have to re-open the a private tab and start searching again.

If this is a new feature, no prob, if. It-might be an issue that can be fixed in another update.

Thanks.

I don’t know if it was an update that automatically installed or something but all my tabs keep closing when I exit the app. All my private tabs I had open are gone :/ and I keep trying to leave tabs open, close the app, and open it again and they all still get erased. I saw this was a problem last year too but didn’t see if there was a solution or not.
