I’m dying to find a way to stop Firefox on android from creating new tabs every time I use it. Why does it create a new tab when I open the app? Why won’t the tabs ever go away even though I set it to delete them every day? Why is ‘every day’ the lowest setting to remove them automatically and not when I close the app?

I’m not seeing anything in the settings. I hate having extra tabs open. They’re completely useless to me. Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks.

    Settings -> Homepage -> Opening screen

    I think you may need to change this to last tab or homepage after 4 hours of inactivity.

    I’m less helpful here :(, I manually close them and like to leave tabs open for ages sometimes.
