I'd like to be able to clear my tabs when I exit the browser on Android. I hate having old tabs open when I start up Firefox on my phone.

Currently to make my tabs close I had to go into my settings, toggle the settings 'Delete browsing data on quit', and toggle everything off except tabs. Except, now it's still a pointless process, I have to go to the 3 dot menu, and tap quit? Why can't there just be an option to clear everything when I close the app (fully from the app draw). It seems to be an option for most other browsers. Clearing after a day isnt ideal either, I'm not sure if it's intentional but the tabs I had open from last night will still be there the next morning.

Good Evening, I feel the option for that hasn't come up with the devs yet. Although I could see this become an extension for the mobile. Also as of now you can try to use the option of clearing everyday! Thank you. Regards, Naraian Legrand
