My firefox on samsung android phone just suddenly closed all of my tabs on its own which were waaaay over 100 tabs... no update or crash or anything.... i didn't close the tabs either.... just suddenly all gone.. and this is the 2nd time this happens within a year or 2... exact same thing! Unbelievable!! This is unacceptable!! If i did it by mistake then its my fault but all my tabs just totally disappeared suddenly on their own. What can i do? How do i know what caused this? How can i recover them? And no sync..

If you open the Firefox for Android menu and select History, you should see a "Recently closed tabs" option that should help restore your tabs.

I had this problem too! I'm so annoyed and can't find a fix :( I had over 100 tabs open for years and then I clicked on a link in a different app and pressed open in firefox and noticed all my tabs were gone and the restore last session or recently closed tabs do not work because technically I didn't close them!
