The bottom right Trash button allowing you to restart a session is a bit annoying on mobile Android because it is located at the same place as the keyboard Submit button. Sometimes I want to click on that keyboard button and because of a lag or page reload the keyboard view gets closed and.. I've lost my session. To be honest I seldom use this button, I just kill the app when done with it. Would it be possible to have an option to hide it?? That would make Firefox Focus so much better, at least to me, and I believe it would be a quickie to implement. Cheers and thanks for all the efforts you put in making the web safe again!

Hi Xben77

Glad to hear you love Firefox Focus for Android and that you appreciate the work we are doing to deliver an open and awesome web for everyone.

Focus is a privacy based product, so we want to make sure that the key control to clear the history was not buried in a menu. Mobile devices tend to have smaller screen, so we do not have a huge amount of space to work with, but I will feed this back to the developers and hopefully this can be looked into in a future update.

Thanks again for using Firefox Focus for Android. We are already working on making it even more awesome.
