Hi

I am sorry, but it will not be possible to recover those tabs.

I notice that you are using an older version of Firefox for Android. I recommend that you update the latest version from the Google Play store.

Hi kathymcgowan850,

If the tabs from your current device are synced with the tabs from another device, then you might be able to recover those tabs. In the previous Firefox version, synced tabs will expire in seven days. However, note that the synced tabs in the current Firefox release are going to expire in one year (366 days).
