This is an iOS 10.2 issue. I manage to reproduce this issue in the simulator using iOS 10.2. This is not reproducible on iOS 10.3 in the simulator or on actual device.

This actually might be a case of multiple versions of the fennec being installed. The Today widget might be opening the wrong fennec app.

Try removing every version of fennec/firefox and make sure the Today extensions are also gone.

I tested this issue with only one build, beta 8.04467 on iPad Pro running ios 10.2.1.
I also managed to reproduce this issue in the simulator on iOS 10.2. Also tested in the simulator on iOS 10.3 and on actual device and it is not reproducible.

Smells like WONTFIX if it's fixed on 10.3+
