Help! My tab manager in Firefox for Android is in a giant mess and the basic ability to rearrange the order of the tabs would help greatly in dealing with this issue! Please re-enable the ability to rearrange tabs in the tab manager that was once do-able in previous versions of Firefox for Android!

@Mpoygiai think jon meant that it is available for firefox nightly mobile. Atleast i have it available in firefox nightly android.

Pleeeeeease bring back the option to reorder tabs.

Why ever was it removed as a function of Firefox at all? Was it a proprietary feature licensed to you by another organization???

Users really appreciate/d this feature.

Thank you very much in advance.

@Mpoygiaif you hold on the tab where you can see your open tabs you can move the tab wherever you want atleast in firefox nightly.

 @Pamm Please try updating to the latest version in the Google Play store because I think they've fixed this issue in Firefox Android. To rearrange tabs, open the tab manager and long hold a tab and slide it to the new position. Hope this helps.

Now if only Firefox Android had a session manager like desktop browsers then it would become truly useful for mobile productivity!

@auser Thx for your message! Had updated  yesterday before posting. Sadly, long press still shows "Open in private tab/Rename/Remove" as previous 😞

@PammOut of curiosity are you using Firefox for Android or another platform? Also what version operating system are you using? Those functions you described such as Renaming a tab doesn't even exist on my version of Firefox for Android!
