The Help article on App Tabs says "Links to new websites open in a new tab so that your App Tab doesn't change." Unfortunately, mine do change the existing tab instead of opening a new one, so the next time I open Firefox all the App Tabs open at the last page I viewed on that site. How can I set the tabs so that they all stay at the original address as intended?

You need to middle click links as usual to open them in a new tab if you do not want to change the current page in an App tab. Otherwise you need an extension that can lock tabs to prevent that from happening.

You can look at Tab Mix Plus.
