My Android device is set to send page URLs to Firefox (beta). It's easy to find and open a new page by scrolling through my tab list, reading page titles, and tapping the one I want to read. But after a while, the page titles in the tab list are replaced by URLs. Often one can figure out what a tab will open, but not always.

I'm looking for a way to make Firefox "refresh" the tab list's idea of each tab's page title so make the list easier to navigate.

Thanks.

Thank you for that suggestion. The feature I seek would operate on the entire list of tabs in Android Firefox. For each tab sown in the tab list, my (imagined) feature would restore a page's title to the tab item, replacing a page's URL. Firefox seems to "ages out" titles in favor of URLs in the tab list after a while, making it hard to understand what each page is as you scroll the tab list.
