Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Bogdan Surd, QA [:bsurd, NI]]

Device:
 - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 (Android 7.0);

Steps to reproduce:
 1. Open FF and go to google.com; 
 2. Open a new private tab and start typing google.com.

Expected result:
 Switch to tab is not displayed in private browsing, but instead the normal URL is being displayed.

Actual result:
 Switch to tab is being displayed in private browsing if the same URL is opened in normal browsing.

Notes:
 Switch to tab should be displayed in private browsing only after the URL has been opened.
 This issue was not reproducible on other devices I've tested with (Galaxy Note 4, Nexus 6, Huawei Media Pad M2)
