Hello everyone! Is there any fast way to switch between open tabs? I realy don't like the awesome screen, just because I need to make too many 'clicks' for a simple switch. Would be nice if it was possible to swipe Form the sie of the screen, for example... Thanks!

hello hgastmeier, it shouldn't be necessary to go trough the awesome screen in order to switch between tabs. on the top right of the browser there is an icon with the number of open tabs - just tap on it and you can select the tab you want to switch to...

Switch to tab

Tap the title bar and start entering text. If a match is found for one of your open tabs, then the results will display a tab icon and the text "Switch to tab". Tapping "Switch to tab" will switch you to the already open tab instead of creating a duplicate.
