Tabs disappeared

When I opened my iPad all tabs saved in private browsing had disappeared. I keep them there not because they are particularly private but for ease of access. A note from Google said that it had changed my settings as they didn’t know if I was over 18. (I’m 75!) and I needed to sign in to Google. I always use Duck Duck Go as my search engine on my desktop and do NOT want to use Google if possible. Can you help. I’m really fed up/ angry about this intrusion. Sorry for explanatory ramble. Thanks Nicola Palmer Nicolapa@blueyonder.co.uk

Hi Nicola, I understand your frustration in private tabs deleting on Firefox for iOS. There is a GitHub issue (different from the other question you linked) that I believe is related to this issue: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/issues/20073.

Given that multiple posts have been made regarding this, I'll escalate this to the developers. If you have any more questions or information, feel free to reply. Thanks and have a great day!
