Don't know whether it's a bug or me but tabs left open from last session are lost - intermittently - when I re enter Firefox mobile on my Samsung Galaxy s3.

I'll often leave 5 or so showing on the tab counter in the top right hand corner of the browser. Sometimes they will be there next session, but mostly they aren't!

Any suggestions?

HI alt-images, Thank you for your question. When they do not show up, are you using a guest session or have you whipped the cache of the application from the mobile device's OS settings menu?

Also please check these settings on Firefox for Android: Settings > Customize >Tabs Is "Always Restore" selected, or "Don't restore after quitting Firefox"

Please post back with the results and we can continue to troubleshoot the issue, thank you!
