How to prevent Firefox for Android from opening a new tab when the last one is closed

Closing the last tab causes a new tab to open. How can I just have no tab be opened at all when the last one is closed, like in Chrome for Android?

Hi

I do know what you mean - I have tried it myself.

The way that Firefox for Android is designed is that (as with a desktop copy of Firefox) there is always going to be one tab open on your homepage. Closing that one tab is effectively closing the browser.

Further work is being done n Firefox for Android in the future so this may change at a later date.
