I can't access any goggle data as I ran out of tabs but don't know how to close tabs if no x on screen. How do I do it?

Chosen solution

Next to the address bar is an icon that looks like a stack of paper with a number on it. If you tap that, a list of tabs appears and you can tap the x to close the ones you no longer need.

Does that work?

In the tab view you can swipe left or right to close a tab or you can click the x which is to the right of the tab. It is grey on black so it might be hard to see.
