I quit Ff when uploading pics to Facebook failed in order to restart/reset. I hesitated to do so because I didn't want to lose work in open tabs. When I re-opened Ff, I could not find a way to restore my previous session. Please help.

This article is for desktop Firefox and not Android Firefox.

The answer was for the desktop version, with which I am familiar, so I knew the term "restore previous session". I cannot find the same thing aon the Android version.

If FF had worked the way this described, the answer would have been "yes, this worked." However, when I closed FF and re-opened it, the Recent Tab had been cleared by closing it. It listed nothing upon re-opening.
