Hi,

my Firefox-app on my phone updated itself, and now I have some issues with the new UI. I know they might be percieved as minor issues, still the convenience of the UI is a major aspect, as to why I chose to use Firefox mobile for my android device. That, and the ability to use anti tracking addons.

Now to my issues:

I can't find a way to, change the order of my tabs, or how to display the tabs as tiles. Especially the manipulation of the order of the tabs is missing a lot. Since I am a user with many open tabs, I am very reliant on this funtion, as well as the tile display. I realy hope there is a customization option, to change the order of the tabs, that I just overlooked.

I can't imagine, such an important function has intentionally been removed.


The second issue stems from keeping the tool bar at the top.

Since I'm used to it, I am very thankful for there beeing a customization option, to keep it at the top. But the free floating button to add a tab, still remains on the bottom right of the screen. This wouldn't be an issue, if the possibility to open a new tab would still be present in the overflow menu.

It's just natural, that if you open a new tab with your thumb, you want to tapp on the url bar next. So it feels very counter intuitive/uncomfortable, when the ability to open a new tab on the top is missing. Is there any way to customise firerfox mobile, as to put the free floating button near the toolbar on the top?

If these functions do not exist (anymore), where can I make a suggestion, to include them in the personalization options?


Thank you in advance, and hoping for the best,

Puzzled User
