Hello, I have this issue since Firefox 1.1 for iOS. I updated to 1.2 (1206) but the problem persists. When I tap the "tabs count" button on top-right corner, tabs preview screen appears with "+" button on top-right corner but THERE IS NO "incognito" button on its left (it is just black empty area, do you need a screenshot?). Is this a bug or private browsing is not available yet for iOS? If private browsing functionality is implemented, how can I activate it? Thanks in advance! I hope Firefox will become my favorite browser on iOS too! Keep up the good work!

EDIT:Typo.

That's my experience, not having the icon on iOS8, and having it on iOS9 after updating.
