Opening search results on Firefox for Android automatically creates history groups.

Users on different Mozilla communities would like to have an option to disable this behavior and see their full browsing history in chronological order.

Not only does the current design run counter to what users expect and are accustomed to, but it also makes it harder to see the the entire history at a glance, and isn't consistent with Firefox Desktop.

They're not necessarily a bad idea, but having to enter a group to check what's inside, then trying to go back and getting punted to the start of the history screen is very unproductive. At that point, I'd rather disable groups. I'm also not a fan of messing with the entry ordering, since I usually have a "good enough" grasp of the order I visited pages in.

Still no fix after all this time. I really don't get how inconsistent it is with the desktop experience. Who at Mozilla thought it was a good idea to randomly group search results on Android ONLY, and with no way to view them in chronological order? What's the logic behind this?!
