Ah I see what you mean. Yeah I even had a quick look at the beta version where you are able to access the about:config and I couldn’t find an obvious config setting for this either. Firefox on mobile definitely isn’t perfect and especially if you have a specific use case. Just a suggestion that may be an alternative for you: if you press settings then add to home screen, does that hone screen shortcut work for you?

Yeah I understand. For something you use so actively you want it to be as seamless as possible. Maybe have another look at the “install to home screen” option though! I think you can do it on Chrome too btw. But I believe it should actually open as a seperate “app” on your phone.

So instead of having 1 browser app that contains whatever you’re browsing + your dashboard, you could have 1 app for browsing + 1 “app” for your dashboard. It would allow you to even close down your browsing while always having an open dashboard. Maybe it doesn’t fit your flow but it seems like an option worth considering if you haven’t already.
