I'm dying to find a way to stop Firefox on android from creating new tabs every time I use it. Why does it create a new tab when I open the app? Why won't the tabs ever go away even though I set it to delete them every day? Why is 'every day' the lowest setting to remove them automatically and not when I close the app?

I'm not seeing anything in the settings. I hate having extra tabs open. They're completely useless to me. Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks.

I think opening a new tab should default to the home page, but that might be another setting.

With the last tab setting it just goes to the last store you were on when you closed the app.

I don't want to open new tabs. That's the entire thing I'm trying to avoid.
