I’m looking for a mobile browser that does not make me tap to open the list of all tabs before being able to close a tab.

The amount of time this could save me would be incredible because the alternative is wasting time with unnecessary taps and swipe or having 200 tabs open when I have to work from my phone.

Yeah. Most browsers you can swipe to switch tabs but closing is the real issue. It would be a useful feature to be able to close the tab you’re on without having to open the list of open tabs first.

Ah. I use gestures on desktop in several browsers so that mouse gestures will perform a lot of actions, including closing tabs. Perhaps there is an extension for your preferred browser to add more gesture control, so you could slide up then down to close a tab or something.

I've not used this one specifically, but something like this could be useful but for your preferred browser? Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mobile-gestures/ | Adds one-finger gestures for Firefox Android.

Yeah. On desktop and laptop I can just ctrl+w.

And I should have specified, I need the browser for iOS. I know ios is for commie faggots but it’s necessary for work.
